Marko Djurdjić revisits a century of filmmaking with "YOU Haven't Seen BLANK?!", a new monthly column on That Shelf exploring this year's Movie Milestones.
Looking ahead at the holiday DVD and Blu-ray shopping season, we don't like much of what we see, including Men in Black III, Hope Springs, Ted, The Bourne Legacy, Lawless, and The Odd Life of Timothy Green, but the post-apocalyptic thriller The Day is better than it has any right to be, Laurence Anyways is an exceptional Canadian film, and there's also that Batman movie from that really famous director guy.
Despite a great leading performance from Jeremy Renner, The Bourne Legacy feels dully mechanical and designed only as an extremely long prologue to another film yet to come.
