In this story of greed, betrayal, and political espionage, Dwayne "The
Rock" Johnson plays an actor with political connections who can't remember anything from the previous week. Sarah Michelle Gellar plays a porn star turned reality show host who is his girlfriend.
As the world begins to spin out of control, the answers to his questions about his past begin to appear, and his life is not what he thought it to be...
Seann William Scott, Janeane Garafolo, Miranda Richardson, Mandy Moore, Justin Timberlake, Jon Lovitz, Cheri Oteri, Amy Poehler, Will Sasso, and Lou Taylor Pucci co-star in this saga of mistaken
identities and misplaced trust...
"Southland Tales" is from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment and is rated R for violence, language, sexuality, and drug use. Running time: 147 mins.
Score: 0 out of 5 stars
The Movie Guy sez... With the high-caliber cast of stars both young and old, one would think this would be a block-buster production. Unfortunately, it is a confusing mish-mash of over-lapping
story lines and plots within plots that, in the end, have us begging for the end to come, and the closing credits to begin scrolling across the screen. We have a new winner in my own personal
list of all-time worst movies ever made... final answer: this one isn't even worth the 50 cents I paid to rent it.

Nothing compares to a brother's
love...
Randall "Memphis" Raines (Nicolas Cage) is a car thief of mythic proportions who has long retired. But, when his younger brother Kip (Giovanni Ribisi) follows in his footsteps and has a
car boost go wrong, he is forced to come out of retirement. In order to save his brother from being killed by a local gangster (Christopher Eccleston), Memphis must do the impossible: steal all
50 cars on a specific list within 72 hours. Calling together his old team of players, his life is further complicated by a re-kindled romance with an old flame (Angelina Jolie). If life wasn't
difficult enough at this point, the group is being doggedly pursued by a pair of cops (Delroy Lindo and Timothy Oliphant) who want nothing better than to see the Raines brothers behind bars...
Robert Duvall, Will Patton, Scott Caan, Chi McBride, and Vinnie Jones co-star in this high-octane speed-fest...
"Gone In 60 Seconds" is from Dimension Home Entertainment and is rated PG-13 for some lagauge and sexuality, and mild violence. Running time: 117 mins.
Score: 4.25 out of 5 stars
The Movie Guy sez... This one is a wild ride and a car buff's dream. The stunts and chase scenes are spectacular without being over-the-top, while the chemistry between Cage and cast truly works.
This one is a must-have for your DVD collection.
