As you continue to recover from the long holiday weekend (and from battling the crowds to see Indiana Jones), you might want to kick back and relax with a DVD or two (before you have to go out this weekend and battle the hordes of women to see Sex and the City). Here’s what you’ll find on the shelves this week:
Rambo
Grace is Gone
Cassandra’s Dream
The Walker
Darfur Now
Shelter
Back Soon
Minutemen
Kristin’s Rental of the Week:
While there are a few of this week’s DVD releases that I’d like to see, I’ve only actually seen one of them. But, well, it’s not actually a bad one — if you’re into exploding body parts. So if you’re looking for a few thrills (and plenty of unintentional laughs), check out Rambo.

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.
