New Release DVDs - Monday June 2nd

I have been in Wales for a couple of days, and as is typical of a bank holiday / half term week it poured with rain the entire time, please don't tell me that Summer is over already! I couldn't stand it.
So for these long wet evenings why not settle down with a new release DVD from CD WOW! and a nice cup of cocoa...

National_treasures_book_of_secretsNational Treasure 2 - Book Of Secrets
This is the adventure filled sequel to the 2004 Disney film National Treasure and is again produced by Jon Turteltaub.
The whole crew are back with the same actors and characters as the original joined by Helen Mirren and Ed Harris.
18 Pages are missing from the diary of John Wilkes Booth, Abraham Lincolns assassin. One of the pages has been discovered by Jeb Wilkinson (Ed Harris) and he offers it as proof that Ben Gates (Nicolas Cage) relative was a conspirator and not a hero. Ben sets out on an adventure to clear his family name that leads him through Paris, Buckingham Palace, The White House and on to Mount Rushmore in a hunt for clues that leads to a secret that nobody wants to hear or believe. A great fun film suitable for all the family.

Its an incredible film, based on the book by Cormac McCarthy. The Coen brothers (Ethan and Joel) have done an astonishing job of faithfully following the story.
Sheriff Ed Tom Bell (Tommy Lee Jones) comes across a scattered crime scene, the remains of a drug money swap that has gone horribly wrong. Previously Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) has come across the scene and calmly walked off with $2million in cash. Of course this event is not without consequence and the calm cold and eerie Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem) comes to retrieve the lost property.
The film is more about the three central characters then the story line, Anton could be from a Tarantino film, Moss is no pushover either being a Vietnam Vet and the Sheriff all interact brilliantly.
If you like any of the Coen Brothers previous efforts like Fargo or Blood Simple you will love this film. If not check all three of them out!!
