Blu-ray Releases – July 5, 2011
I will start this week’s Blu-ray picks by saying this–13 Assassins was THIS close to being my pick of the week, and is an absolutely wonderful film by the legendary Takashi Miike director. It’s a wonderful mix of the blood and violence with the legend of the Samurai–it’s a nice change from some of the gruesome bloodfests of Miike’s past. But I didn’t want to pick two samurai movies in a week, so….

I remember seeing the trailer
I remember seeing the trailer for Hobo with a Shotgun and thinking it looked like my kind of film. That’s so getting added to my Netflix queue.
the thing i love about a film
the thing i love about a film like Hobo is exactly that–you know EXACTLY what the movie is about, so you can’t be like “aw man, it totally wasn’t like what i thought from the trailers”
Sounds awesome!
Sounds awesome!

It was really good after a ridiculously slow start. Then towards the end it’s just fantastic. If not for Hobo, it would have been my pick of the week.
