New Movies To Rent

If you're seeking for some new movies to rent, then you've certainly come to the correct location. In the following write-up, I'll be taking a look at some of the latest DVD releases to hit video stores across the country. I've tried to give a mix to satisfy everyone, so anticipate to see every thing from action movies to sci-fi and horror. Heck, there's even a movie starring Ed Norton as identical twins, so what much more could you ask for?

Knight and Day (2010) - Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz team up for the second time, and the result is a charming blend of comedy and action with a lot of romance thrown in as well. Cameron Diaz plays a automobile restorer who's getting prepared for her sister's (Maggie Grace) upcoming wedding. But her life suddenly gets additional complex when she boards the identical flight as a spy (Tom Cruise) and becomes entangled in a web of espionage and assassination. Whilst it was a disappointment at the box office, Knight and Day does provide a lot of action and a pair of likable leads (assuming you can overlook Cruise's off-screen antics).

The Sorcerer's Apprentice (2010) - Jay Baruchel stars as a physics student in New York who finds out he's the key to stopping evil sorceress Morgana le Fay (Alice Krige) from ruling the world. But he'll have to learn magic in order to do so, all the though juggling a relationship with a crush from his days in elementary school. Nicolas Cage stars as his magical mentor, and Alfred Molina is a delight as the evil Maxim Horvath. Male viewers need to be in particular thrilled by the inclusion of beauties Teresa Palmer and Monica Bellucci.

Charlie St. Cloud (2010) - Zac Efron has the lead role in this romantic drama based on the novel by Ben Sherwood. In it, he plays the title character, a sailing enthusiast who loses his brother in a car crash and becomes the caretaker at the local cemetery. Now, every day at sunset, he gets together with his brother's spirit to play catch. But when Charlie meets a lovely female sailor who dreams of going around the globe, his loyalty to his brother's memory will be tested.

The Girl Who Played with Fire (2009) - The second film based on Stieg Larsson's "Millennium Trilogy," The Girl Who Played with Fire picks up 1 year after the prior film, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Goth hacker Lisbeth Salander (Noomi Rapace) has returned to Sweden after a year of traveling the world, and she's soon framed for three deaths. Journalist and former lover Mikael Blomkvist (Michael Nyqvist) knows she's innocent, but he'll have to brave a number of obstacles in order to prove it (including a man who can't feel discomfort and a former KGB agent).

Splice (2010) - Sarah Polley and Adrien Brody star as a pair of scientists who are splicing animal DNA to generate new species. When they add a small human DNA to the mix, they wind up with a bizarre creature dubbed "Dren" ("nerd" spelled backwards). Every thing appears fine at first, but then Dren begins to demonstrate some rather undesirable human qualities. A fictional look at the dangers of unchecked scientific investigation.

Leaves of Grass (2010) - Ed Norton stars as identical twins Bill and Brady Kincaid. Bill is an Ivy League professor, though Brady is a little-town Oklahoma pot dealer. When the brothers unite for a scheme against a local drug dealer (Richard Dreyfuss), both their lives start to fall apart. A black comedy that co-stars Susan Sarandon, Keri Russell, and Tim Blake Nelson (who also directed).

The next time you head over to Netflix, be sure and take a look at these . There's bound to be some thing you'll like. And even if there's not, a entire new batch will be coming out next week.
