Scandal |
"
While Bridget Fonda fails to nail Mandy Rice-Davies' accent as effectively as she depicts her cheeky brio, it's made up for by quality extras and the restoration of orgy footage considered too racy by the American censors.

No, there aren't any extras to speak of, and it doesn't matter. Shane Carruth's mesmerizing fantasy is still a must-own.

Superman Unbound |
"
This outing, in which the Man of Steel and Supergirl tangle with nemesis Brainiac, may not be as exciting and deep as some of his others, such as Superman/Doomsday, but it's still an entertaining yarn.

The movie is all about its off-putting tone and nonsensical shocks, which are all the more unnerving because of how little sense they make.

The Great Escape |

This nearly three-hour beast is exhausting to sit through, but an experience every self- respecting male movie-lover must go through before he can call himself a man.

I don't know about all the Oscar love this romantic comedy/sports flick hybrid (think Jerry Maguire) received, but the funny, poignant and well-acted movie was undoubtedly one of the must-see films of 2012.

A crafty screenplay and devilishly sexy turns from Mara and Catherine Zeta-Jones keep the movie mesmerizing, and one of my favorite movies released in 2013 so far.

It makes perfect sense for Oscilloscope to release Only The Young and Tchoupitoulas together. Both beautifully portray youthful exuberance in American landscapes that are changing as quickly as the films' adolescent subjects.
