The Plot:

“In 1979, the American embassy in Iran was invaded by Iranian revolutionaries and several Americans were taken hostage. However, six managed to escape to the official residence of the Canadian Ambassador and the CIA was eventually ordered to get them out of the country. With few options, exfiltration expert Tony Mendez devised a daring plan: to create a phony Canadian film project looking to shoot in Iran and smuggle the Americans out as its production crew. With the help of some trusted Hollywood contacts, Mendez created the ruse and proceed to Iran as its associate producer. However, time was running out with the Iranian security forces closing in on the truth while both his charges and the White House had grave doubts about the operation themselves.”  (Kenneth Chisholm (kchishol@rogers.com)

Looper

Looper revolves around criminal organizations that use time travel in the year 2074 to  send those they want killed into the past where they are killed by “Looper“, (assassins paid with silver bars strapped to their targets). Joe, (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) a looper, encounters himself when his older self (Bruce Willis) is sent back in time to be killed. In Looper, time travel was invented in 2044 but outlawed and used by criminals for their own personal gain. These ”Looper“, dispose of the bodies in a time where the victim doesn’t exist but the only catch to this is that these ”Loopers“, are sent to kill their future selves. It sounds a little confusing but if you think back to how time travel operated in Back To The Future, the premise here is pretty much the same; what you change in the future changes the present.

The special features included on the Blu-ray are: 

1) Feature Commentary with Director Rian Johnson, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Emily Blunt  
2) Looper: From the Beginning – Making-of Featurette
3) 5 Deleted Scenes with Commentary
4) Scoring Looper
5) Looper Animated Trailer

Blu-ray Exclusives

1) The Science of Time Travel Featurette
2) 17 Additional Deleted Scenes with Commentary

With the holidays over most of us have time to relax and watch TV once again. This is a good way to kick it off.

“The Bourne Legacy takes the action-packed Bourne series to an explosive new level. On the verge of having their conspiracy exposed, members of the government’s intelligence community will stop at nothing to erase all evidence of their top secret programs – even the agents involved. Aaron Cross (Jeremy Renner) must use his genetically-engineered skills to survive the ultimate game of cat-and-mouse and finish what Jason Bourne started. Also starring Academy Award® winner Rachel Weisz and Academy Award® nominee Edward Norton, critics are calling this a “thrilling, edge-of-your-seat heart-pounder” (Meg Porter Berns, WSVN-TV (FOX), Miami).

The Bourne Legacy received mixed reviews.  Rotten Tomatoes gave the film a 56% rating and stated “It isn’t quite as compelling as the earlier trilogy, but The Bourne Legacy proves the franchise has stories left to tell and benefits from Jeremy Renner’s magnetic work in the starring role.” Regardless of reviews, fans of the franchise were happy about this release even if Matt Damon wasn’t apart of this film.

Fans will be happy with the bonus content available on the Blu-ray and DVD.

Initial reports suggest that these extras will help us answer some questions we all have regarding the movie. According to Entertainment Weekly, the meaning of life (or at least the meaning of Prometheus) will be revealed. Based on the visual effects and nothing else, Prometheus is a great addition to your home theater viewing experience. If you don’t understand it, don’t worry. It seems as if most of the viewing audience that saw the movie in the summer walked away confused. Maybe the basis for this movie was to create questions and the Blu-ray DVD release is supposed to answer our questions. This could be a brilliant marketing strategy to get us to buy or rent it so we can watch it again. This could be the first two part experience of a movie that doesn’t have a sequel to answer those lingering questions? From what we’ve read, a sequel is going to happen as well.

October 9th will see the release and “answer those questions” we all have regarding the plot of this movie. Once you see it, let us know what you think. I’m sure there will be some lively discussions about it.
