STRANGE WILDERNESS: (2008) "Strange Wilderness lacks the slightest semblance of humor. Instead, it substitutes idiotic gags and pointless wackiness. None of it works and the flick’s 85 minutes pass very, very slowly ... Stay away from this completely unfunny stinker." Starring Steve Zahn, Allen Covert. Paramount, $29.99, 5/20/2008.

NATIONAL TREASURE 2 - BOOK OF SECRETS - COLLECTOR'S EDITION: (2007) "After the lackluster National Treasure, I didn’t look forward to its sequel. However, Book of Secrets offered a frequently funny, occasionally exciting experience that rarely excelled but always entertained ... Overall, this is a fun movie and a perfectly acceptable DVD." Starring Nicolas Cage, Justin Bartha. Buena Vista, $34.99, 5/20/2008.

SERIAL MOM - COLLECTOR'S EDITION: (1994) "I don’t think it’s a bad movie, but it’s too often a dull one; its laughs come too infrequently to make it more than a random success ... If you’re part of the John Waters cult, I’m sure you’ll like this disc, but I don’t know if it’ll do much for the uninitiated." Starring Kathleen Turner, Sam Waterston. Universal, $19.98, 5/6/2008.

UNTRACEABLE: (2008) "I wanted to like Untraceable, as I enjoy the serial killer genre. It serves as a sub-standard entry in that field, though. It borrows liberally from superior predecessors and insults the audience with its relentless stupidity ... There’s nothing wrong with this release, but the movie itself is a major disappointment." Starring Diane Lane, Billy Burke. Sony, $28.95, 5/13/2008.

THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN ARM - FRANK SINATRA COLLECTION: (1955) "Groundbreaking for its era, The Man With the Golden Arm no longer shocks, but it still works. The film boasts a strong lead performance from Frank Sinatra and tells its tale well ... Note that you can buy this version of The Man With the Golden Arm on its own or as part of a five-movie package called “The Frank Sinatra Collection: The Golden Years” ... (It's) a good deal for fans who want to own all five – or even just four – of the films." Starring Frank Sinatra, Eleanor Parker. Warner, $12.97, 5/13/2008.
