JACK REACHER (BLU-RAY/DVD COMBO)

Suffers from a multitude of problems including lack of charisma and drama. Tom Cruise is not a good fit in the Salvation Army clothes of military cop turned heroic drifter, Jack Reacher. Rental only and you really might as well wait for it be on TBS.

WAYNE'S WORLD 2 (BLU-RAY)

In a stunning display of the amount of thought Paramount put into the production of Wayne's World 2 on Blu-ray, the back cover refers to it as "the most awaited video" since Wayne's World, marketing copy you might remember from when the movie was released 15 years ago... on video.

WAYNE'S WORLD (BLU-RAY)

The real question is, do you really need to own a low-budget comedy like Wayne's World in HD? The answer is, yes, if only for the opportunity to study the weird after effects of Mike Meyers apparently out-of-control eyebrow tweezing habit.

CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION - THE FIRST SEASON (BLU-RAY)

While nine years of crime scene investigation might be easy to take for granted, Paramount's Blu-ray release of the first year is a welcome reminder of the show's assured debut.
