Blu-Ray and Digital HD Releases

Skyscraper

Dwayne Johnson stars in Skyscraper which hits Blu-Ray, DVD, and Digital HD today.

The film follows a former FBI Hostage Rescue Team leader who assesses skyscraper security. This time around, he finds himself in China where he’s framed for a deadly fire in the tallest and safest building in the world. It’s a race against time as he tries to clear his name and save his family who are all trapped in the burning inferno.

This exciting film has a ton of action and special effects that give it a Die Hard feeling mixed with good ‘ol action from Dwayne Johnson. Although the story line is lacking some depth, the action moves the story along making it a decent popcorn film.

The film is available in 2160p Dolby Vision for the 4k offering, along with 5.1 Dolby Atmos soundtrack. Bonus features include deleted and extended scenes, a behind the scenes featurette of Dwayne Johnson, and a short feature on the real life hero that inspired the main character.

If you’re a fan of Dwayne Johnson and liked movies like “Die Hard” this movie is a no brainer to pick up.

Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation

Drac’s family is back in the latest Hotel Transylvania 3 arriving today on Blu-Ray and DVD.

This time, it’s time for the family to take a break from running their hotel and take to the high seas as they embark on a vacation adventure aboard a luxury monster cruise ship. However, a nefarious plot is in the works where the people aboard the ship are not who they seem to be as Drac’s past comes back to haunt him.

Like the other animated films, this one is filled with a ton of gags, music, and slapstick fun. The voice acting is fun as always supported by their comedy star-studded cast including Adam Sandler, Andy Samberg, Selena Gomez, and Kevin James.

Bonus materials include three sing-along songs, instructions on how to pull off a sleepover or make over, behind the scenes, and two mini-movies. This film is a great pickup for the kids and fans of the first two films.

Eighth Grade

Comedian, musician, actor and now filmmaker Bo Burnham offers us Eighth Grade which hits Blu-Ray today.

The film follows the modern life of thirteen-year-old Kayla as she finishes her last week of her disastrous eighth grade year right before moving on to high school.

With a whopping 98% on Rotten Tomatoes, this rated R film is a fascinating one as it’s all about the small nuances and social touches riddled throughout the film. In essence, the film feels real and you experience the full cringeworthy awkwardness of that special age all bolstered by the protagonists’ relationship with her father.

Special features are small including Deleted Scenes and a featurette on life in Eighth Grade. The film is presented in 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio and 1080p HD.

Overall, the film gives an unflinching realistic view of the life of a modern Eighth grader which we all can possibly relate to even now.
