John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson team up in BASIC, an action-packed military thriller from director John McTiernan (DIE HARD). Jackson plays Sergeant Nathan West, propagator of a harsh military training program that appears to have pushed a group of young recruits too far, when an exercise winds up with them attempting to kill each other. Only two soldiers emerge alive from the slaughter, and Jackson isn't among them. Rogue DEA agent Tom Hardy (Travolta) is called in to question the survivors, teaming up with Lieutenant Julia Osbourne (Connie Nielsen), in an attempt to solve the puzzle.The two remaining soldiers (played by Giovanni Ribisi and Brian Van Holt) tell their conflicting tales, with director McTiernan utilizing flashbacks to illustrate what may have happened in the Panama jungle. It quickly transpires that Jackson and Travolta's characters are old army acquaintances, both with a penchant for unorthodox techniques; and when it transpires that corrupt doctor Bill Styles (Harry Connick Jr.) has been selling the recruits illegal drugs, it also appears he has a romantic history with Nielsen's character. The subsequent plot twists come thick and fast, resulting in a white-knuckle ride to the finale, in which nothing can be taken for granted.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 2.4Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Dolby Digital 5.1 - FrenchAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentary - 1.

A genre-bending update of the Hansel and Gretel story, GRIMM is a Dutch film directed by Alex van Warmerdam. Young adults Jacob and Marie are abandoned in the woods by their father, with only a note in Jacob`s pocket to guide them: advice from their mother to travel to Spain and see their wealthy uncle. When they reach the warm and sunny country, a far cry from their cold and snowy home, Marie meets the sinister Don Diego, who charms and marries her, much to Jacob`s displeasure. His suspicions may be well-founded, however, when he discovers that Diego is involved in criminal activities that put both he and Marie at risk. Combining black comedy, mystery, suspense, and absurdity, GRIMM is a unique Dutch fairy tale.
