From animated super-dogs to tough super-spies, this week’s DVD (and Blu-ray) releases offer plenty of action and adventure. So if you’re looking for an adrenaline rush, head to your local video store. Here’s what you’ll find:
New This Week:
Quantum of Solace
Bolt
Secrets of the Furious Five
Happily N’Ever After 2: Snow White
The Cake Eaters
Big Stan
The Venture Brothers: Season 3
Charles in Charge: Season 4

Kristin’s Rental of the Week:
This week, I’m passing up Bond for Bolt. The animated super-dog may not have the wheels or the women that 007 does, but he does have Rhino, the funniest movie side-kick I’ve seen in years.

Kristin Dreyer Kramer has been writing in some form or another (usually when she was supposed to be doing something else) since the ripe old age of ten—when she, her cousin, and their two Cabbage Patch Dolls formed the Poo Authors’ Club. After a short career in advertising, Kristin got sick of always saying nice things about stuff that didn’t deserve it—so now she spends her days criticizing things, and she’s much happier for it.
Since creating NightsAndWeekends.com in February of 2002, Kristin has spent her life surrounded by piles and piles of books and movies—so many that her office has become a kind of entertainment obstacle course.
As if her writing and editing responsibilities for N&W.com weren’t enough to keep her out of trouble, Kristin also hosts a number of weekly radio shows: Reel Discovery, Shelf Discovery, and On the Marquee. She’s also a proud member of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (CriticsChoice.com), the Central Ohio Film Critics Association (COFCA.org), the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS.org), and the Women Film Critics Circle (WFCC.Wordpress.com).
Kristin lives in Columbus, Ohio, with her husband, Paul, and their daughter, Anna. She welcomes questions, comments, and fan mail at kdk@nightsandweekends.com.
