Welcome back to Killer Film’s New Release Tuesday for May 18th! Click on the cover art to order straight from Amazon.com-you know, just as a reminder. Let’s see what’s being released today…

The Spy Next Door

Ugh. While I was never a huge Jackie Chan fan, most of his American films are scientifically awful. Like this one. Remember The Tuxedo? Looks like an unofficial sequel. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD)   Jon says: Avoid   Donny says: Rent

The Messenger

One of last year’s best films, a wholly underrated one as well. It’s a powerful, emotional film, featuring some solid acting. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD)   Jon says: Buy   Donny says: Rent

Invictus

Not Eastwood’s best, but far better than the Changeling. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD)   Jon says: Rent   Donny says: Rent

Valentine’s Day

Those seeking a sweet rom-com were left devastated by this atrocity. Limp, poorly scripted, all fluff, no emotionality, and far from a watchable film. Gah! (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD)   Jon says: Avoid    Donny says: Rent

Extraordinary Measures

While not a rousing, powerful film as one would hope, it’s a far better Harrison Ford film than we’ve got from him in a long time. (Formats: Blu-ray/DVD)   Jon says: Rent   Donny says: Rent

Gamera, The Giant Monster

I reviewed the DVD here already, but it’s a great film on a great DVD from Shout! Factory. Can’t wait for more! (Formats: DVD only)   Jon says: Buy   Donny says: Buy
