Upcoming DVD Releases on St. Patty's Day!

This Tuesday as you celebrate St. Patrick's Day and wear your festive green, there are new DVD releases for the kids, teens, and adults to look out for that may catch your eye. Here are the top three releases for this week:


First up, for the kids, we have Bolt, the TV superhero canine who really thinks he has superpowers. Growing up on the set of his telelevision show his whole life, the story unfolds where he has been removed from the set by accident and discovers the real world. This fun film with voiceovers from John Travolta as Bolt, Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus as Penny, and a hilarious hamster, Rhino, played by Susie Essman, tells the tale of a pup discovering the truth and himself, and finding his way back home.




Next, for the tweens and teens is the hit film, Twilight, thanks to the successful novel written by Stephanie Meyer and starring Harry Potter lady heartthrob, Robert Pattinson. The idea is simple; girl moves to new city, doesn't quite fit in, meets a male vampire, and falls in love. Wait...what? The love affair between human and vampire takes on a forbidden nature similar to that of Romeo and Juliet. Girls who are into romance with a funky twist will probably be drawn to this blood-sucking film. Although, this film has been known to suck the life out of some who watched it, as shown in the 5 Reasons You'll Hate the movie 'Twilight'.



Last, for the adults who can handle the carnage, is the new Punisher film, War Zone. Starring Ray Stevenson as the Punisher aka Frank Castle, he takes on one of his toughest villains yet; the mob boss & comic-book assassin known as Jigsaw. Castle is now six years seasoned in his role of the anti-hero. From the guilt of killing an FBI agent, he contemplates retirement from his vigilante work. However, when Jigsaw targets the fallen agent's family, he seeks to make amends for what he has done and stop him. This revenge driven flick is not for the squeamish.
Superherohype.com has a special DVD clip for more into the film and the villain, Jigsaw.
