DVD and Blu-ray Releases for January 8, 2013


It was a massive week for new titles released on DVD and Blu-ray. As a result I’ll be playing a little bit of catch up over the next couple weeks as things slow down just a bit. This week’s reviews include Tim Burton’s “Frankenweenie,” the Blu-ray debut for 1927’s “The Jazz Singer,” the visual feast “Samsara,” Chow Yung-Fat as Cao Cao in the Chinese epic “The Assassins,” HBO’s Sarah Palin drama “Game Change,” the third volume of “Tiny Toon Adventures” and the BBC’s “Red Dwarf X.”

Other titles released this week include the second season of Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant’s “An Idiot Abroad,” the second series of the BBC’s excellent drama “The Hour,” the first season of NBC’s “Smash,” the first season of HBO’s “Enlightened,” the horror films “Sleep Tight” and “House at the End of the Street” and a pair of action titles from Universal in the form of “Guns, Girls and Gambling” and “Hit & Run.”
