It’s a good thing there’s mid-week movies releasing on the big screen this week because there’s not much in the way of small screen films. The DVDs releasing this week are “Nim’s Island” and “Starship Troopers 3″.

Nim  s Island

Nim’s Island”




Nim’s Island

Abigail Breslin and Jodie Foster star in this family adventure movie about an author who’s never left her home and a little girl in need of help from the world’s greatest adventure author. When Abigail’s father is lost at sea and her island comes under attack, she enlists the help of her favorite author, Jodie Foster. But Jodie is not the person she lets on in the books, so it’s an adventure for everyone. The critics have generally been pleased, calling the movie a story of “girl power” and “cute and imaginative”.

Starship Troopers 3: Marauder

The third installment in this sci-fi adventure comedy is nothing new if you’ve seen the first two. Johnny Rico is called back into action to fight the bugs, and he gets into some trouble along the way. It’s a directly to DVD movie, so don’t get too excited.

See the movie trailers below.
