Here are some of the latest movies to land on DVD, led by a fantasy-thriller that should have received theatrical play.
Passengers (Sony/Blu-ray, 2008, PG-13, $39.95). This showcase for Anne Hathaway is yet another inexplicable example of what major studios send straight to video. It’s a flawed melodrama/fantasy, but it’s certainly better than a lot of recent films that have managed to find their way to theaters. (Such as Hathaway’s own Bride Wars.) Go figure. Hathaway plays a young, perhaps overeducated therapist who is assigned to begin sessions with a group of traumatized airline-crash survivors. The plot unravels in fits and starts and doesn’t seem sure of what it wants to be — is it about a patient’s sudden extra-sensory abilities, is it a conspiracy thriller about an airline covering up the real reasons for the crash, is it a romance as Hathaway’s character crosses ethical lines? Despite these teases and some lapses in logic, however, the film is satisfying most of the way, even if you figure out the big “reveal” as the film morphs into a feature-length Twilight Zone episode. The performances are exceptional, especially Hathaway in a role that requires her to carry the picture, but also Patrick Wilson, Andre Braugher, David Morse, Clea DuVall and especially Dianne Wiest. Extras: widescreen, deleted scenes, audio commentary, featurettes, trailers Thanks to DeserteNews.com for this review!

"I look my best after an entire hair and makeup team has spent hours perfecting me. When do I feel my best? When I have not looked in a mirror for days, and I am doing things that make me happy."
