Savages

New on DVD, Blu-ray and streaming this week, suburban strangeness, 'Savages' a la Stone, Scottish family fun and a classic on Blu-ray. …

With the exception of poor Katy Perry, everyone was a winner at the box office this week. Seriously. Of the top ten films, nine of them either opened well or held well, making this one of the most consistent weekends of the summer season. Filmmakers and studios: pat yourselves on the backs. You've earned this one.

Oliver Stone's 'Savages' opens this weekend, and it feels like a film out of time. You don't get many R-rated wide releases in the summer anymore and the film seems like it belongs in the 1990's, when 'Pulp Fiction' was de rigueur.

I took very few notes as I watched Oliver Stone's 'Savages.' I basically have one phrase in large print in the center of the page: “I can't tell if I'm supposed to be taking this seriously.” It's underlined. Three times. 'Savages' is nothing if not unique.

So, one can understand why he ultimately goes all Gary Busey crazy for a little bit.

Oliver Stone's 'Savages' hits theaters next month, and amid the appeal of bigger summer blockbusters, what does this film have to offer? The answer is simple: Taylor Kitsch, lots of marijuana, and guns.

Happy 'Dark Knight Rises' and 'Amazing Spider-Man' month, everyone! You could tell us that you're not into either of these comic book heroes and we wouldn't believe you, but we'll still give you plenty of other new movie releases to choose from for July 2012. That is, if you insist on lying about how much you despise Bruce Wayne and Peter Parker.

Watch out, poster flood! While several movies grace the big screen this weekend, we get a glimpse of a few more films that are scheduled to be released at some point this year through their posters.

Drama, action, thrills, sex and dreadlocks. That means the first official trailer for Oliver Stone's new crime drama 'Savages' is out for the world to see online.
