DVD Picks – July 6, 2010 – The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, A Single Man, Brooklyn’s Finest and More
Hans Zimmer Teaches Film Scoring
This is probably one of the few times that I have made a foreign-language film my top pick of the week, but I have to say that The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is well worth the recommendation. This releases comes just in time for the release of The Girl Who Plays with Fire, which comes out on Friday. On to the picks.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Blu-Ray/DVD Combo – $24.99 (CAN)
Blu-Ray – $19.99 (US)
Standard – $15.49 (US)
My Thoughts: A very good film that’s on par with North American thrillers.
My Recommendation: Buy It
A Single Man
Blu-Ray – $27.99 (CAN), $23.99 (US)
Standard – $19.99 (CAN), $17.99 (US)
My Thoughts: Great performance by Colin Firth in an otherwise standard drama.
My Recommendation: Rent It
Brooklyn’s Finest
Blu-Ray – $27.49 (CAN), $19.99 (US)
Standard – $27.99 (CAN), $14.99 (US)
Blu-Ray Re-Releases

And those are my DVD Picks for this week.
