Invictus Blu-Ray
“Invictus” is a film that approaches the same story on many different levels.

However, the film has many different layers of the same issue ; how South Africa dealt with sudden change in government with the election of Nelson Mandela as its first black president. Morgan Freeman does an outstanding job as Mandela, actually spending time with the South African leader in studying for his part.
The Informant! Blu-Ray
As the cover states, “Matt Damon is The Informant”, a sly comedy with another brilliant performance from Damon. Having conquered the action thriller, Damon turns to witty comedy in this true tale of Mark Whitacre, the highest ranking corporate whistleblower in U.S. history. Whitacre contacts the FBI about price fixing in the corn industry, which sends in FBI agent (Scott Bakula) to investigate. Bakula convinces Whitacre to start recording the deals that are to be made but soon discovers there is a lot more to the story then Whitacre has told him. The comedy of this film builds as we discover bit by bit what Whitacre and others are up to. The comedy is subtle but witty and this film will stand up to more than a few viewings. Continue reading
