Join the Sixties generation DVD Blu-ray Releases Masthead created by Good & Associates

OnVideo's Weekly Guide to Home Video Releases Tuesday, February 4 -- Monday, February 10 All DVD Releases Dallas Buyers Club There's a pair of outstanding performances in director Jean-Marc Vallee's ("The Young Victoria") thoroughly involving "Dallas Buyers Club": One by Matthew McConaughey, who plays real-life Texas electrician Ron Woodroof, a bull-riding he-man diagnosed HIV-positive in 1985 and given 30 days to live; the other by Jared Leto as Rayon, a transgender AIDS-stricken activist who becomes friends with Woodroof and helps him to accept his plight and the plight of other HIV-infected people -- people Woodroof shunned. Because the U.S. government refused to approve medicines that were proven to help hold back AIDS-related illnesses, Woodroof tracked down alternative treatments from all over the world by means both legal and illegal, setting up a Dallas Buyers Club that fellow HIV-positive people could join to get access to needed supplies. As in any film pitting a maverick against the establishment and powers that be, the bad guys (here thick-headed FDA agents, conservative doctors, government lackeys) are exaggerated so you can root for the underdogs (Woodroof and an unlikely band of renegades and outcasts). Woodroof's crusade had as much to do with money and orneriness as it did for any moral imperative, but his unlikely (and unlikable) character becomes a hero at the film's endExtras: Deleted scenes, "A Look Inside Dallas Buyers Club." Vitals: Director: Jean-Marc Vallee. Stars: Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Jared Leto, Steve Zahn, Dallas Roberts, Kevin Rankin, Denis O'Hare, Jane McNeill, Griffin Dunne. 2013, CC, MPAA rating: R, 117 min., Drama, Box office gross: $14.257 million, Universal. Advertisement Escape Plan Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger team up for an implausible -- but straight-ahead -- action-adventure about a security expert (Stallone) whose all-consuming job is breaking out of maximum security facilities -- on the government's dime, of course -- to test the weaknesses and flaws in the construction and guarding of prisons. When he's hired to break out of an ultra-secret, high-tech prison called "The Tomb," he's deceived and betrayed and finds himself a prisoner in an escape-proof facility. He's forced to team up with another inmate, an international criminal (Schwarzenegger), to help devise a daring, nearly impossible plan to escape. It's great to see these muscle-bound stars still in action -- Stallone is 67, Schwarzenegger 66 -- but their stamina kind of belies reality: they're fighting and beating up guys a third their age. Oh well, if you can overlook that, then you're in for a fun ride.Extras: Commentary with director Mikael Hafstrom and co-writer Miles Chapman, "Executing the Plan: The Making of Escape Plan" featurette.

They fall in love, but an unfortunate time-travel incident means he's never met her at all. So they meet for the first time again -- and again -- but finally, after a lot of cunning time-traveling, he wins her heart. Tim then uses his power to create the perfect romantic proposal and wedding and to get his pregnant wife to the hospital in time for the birth of their daughter.
