This week brings another batch of less-than-enthusiastic reviews for the latest Bruce Willis action film, a Penelope Cruz-headlined disaster, and a horrible South Africa-set drama starring Samuel L. Jackson and Juliette Binoche. Those in NYC, however, might want to take a chance on a low-budget science fiction film called After the Apocalypse that’ll be playing downtown starting on March 16.

Fortunately, I’ve seen some decent stuff on DVD recently. My thoughts on Stander, Tokyo Godfathers and The Five Obstructions can be found directly below this post.
