New Release Tuesday

In the near future, crime is patrolled by a mechanized police force. When one police droid, Chappie, is stolen and given new programming, he becomes the first robot with the ability to think and feel for himself.  I have not see this yet but it looks like Robocop but just full on robot.  I have enjoyed director Neil Blomkamp's stuff so far so I hope this is on par with the rest of his work.  Scored the steelbook at Target.

Mobster and hit man Jimmy Conlon has one night to figure out where his loyalties lie: with his estranged son, Mike, whose life is in danger, or his longtime best friend, mob boss Shawn Maguire, who wants Mike to pay for the death of his own son.  This has action man Liam Neeson and a stellar cast so this should be good.


Oh yeah, some classic Chuck.  Chuck plays Sean Kane as he is forced to resign from the San Francisco Police Department's Narcotics Division when he goes berserk after his partner is murdered. He decides to fight alone and follows a trail of drug traffickers into unexpected high places.  It's been awhile since I have seen this, nice to have it on blu.

Chuck plays Danny O'Brien as he is back in action fighting the notorious Simon Moon, also known as The Terror. Three years earlier O'Brien had single-highhandedly captured The Terror and was called Hero by the people of L.A. Now Simon has escaped and has started killing women again, and O'Brien is the only man who can stop him.
