hawaii-five-0-first-season-dvdLast year CBS decided to reboot one of its popular cop dramas from the 1970s. Hawaii Five-O followed the adventures of the special state police force led by former U.S. naval officer Steve McGarrett (Jack Lord). The updated version of the show has proved to be a hit with both critics and audiences. And any show that gives you a built in excuse to see Grace Park in a bikini every week can’t be that bad of an idea.

After the death of his father (William Sadler) Navy Intelligence officer Steve McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin) agrees to put together a special task force to track down the man responsible (James Marsters) and solve crimes the regular police aren’t equipped to solve.

The team McGarrett puts together includes Newark Police Detective Danny Williams (Scott Caan) who has moved to the island to be closer to his daughter Grace (Teilor Grubbs), Chin Ho Kelly (Daniel Dae Kim) a former police officer falsely accused of taking money, and Chin’s cousin Kono (Park) fresh out of the academy.

Real Steel

real-steel-posterReal Steel is a rather simple story about the connection between a father and son mashed up with a movie adaptation for Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots. It’s not going to wow you, but it’s a farily harmless family film with better than average effects, its share of charm, and lots of fightin’ robots!

In the not-too-distant future boxers have been replaced with robots. Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman), a former fighter who never got his shot, now works the edges of robot boxing in state fairs and underground clubs. Charlie barely makes by, owes markers to everyone he knows, including the daughter (Evangeline Lilly) of his former trainer, and has just been given the responsibility of raising a son (Dakota Goyo) who he has never bothered to get to know.

Seeing how the boy’s aunt (Hope Davis) wants to adopt him Charlie makes a deal with her husband (James Rebhorn). For $100,000 he’ll take Max (Goyo) for the summer and then sign him over afterwards. In Charlie’s mind, everyone wins. And so father and son hit the road with Charlie’s new robot in tow.

Created by Jonathan Nolan, Person of Interest stars James Caviezel as a man with a unique set of skills who is approached by a computer programmer who has built a system that can predict the identity of people connected to violent crimes. The project was funded by the government to find terrorists but Finch (Michael Emerson) soon learned that it could also predict “non-essential” crimes of other individuals. Together Finch and Reese (Caviezel) set out to save the lives of those the machine discovers are in danger.
