Every month, distributors are given the opportunity to sell their latest television and film productions. And to this little game, Warner Bros knows how to do it by having unveiled a line-up of very eclectic releases ranging from a big disaster movie, to the Avenger of DC Comics aka the Justice League. Quite a program definitely. Follow the guide!
Geostorm
Geostorm – DVD/Blu-Ray/Blu-Ray Steelbook – Released March 7, 2018
Every year is an opportunity for a filmmaker to satisfy his penchant for mass destruction. If in 2016, Roland Emmerich returned with his bellicose aliens and his very dispensable sequel to Independence Day, in 2017, it is Dean Devlin, one of his friends and closest collaborators (as if by chance), who strives to dismantle the power of the elements in Geostorm. Behind this shocking title hides a promising SF postulate: an international alliance has against all odds created a machine capable of controlling the climate. Except that one day, the machine goes off the rails, reserving a fatal fate for the Earth and its inhabitants. This was without counting Gerard Butler, former commander of the machine, who will try everything to know the causes of this malfunction and incidentally save the world. A very strange film, very full of taste for the destruction of Roland Emmerich, which behind its rather stupid premise will please aficionados of mass destruction and fans of Gerard Butler, who uses his gruff trogne to unmask a real government plot and save the world, for the love of his daughter.
Justice League
Justice League – DVD/Blu-Ray/Blu-Ray Steelbook – Released March 21, 2018
DC Comics' answer to Marvel's Avengers, Justice League was supposed to show the reliability of the DC Comics Universe and finally allow it to compete with the empire defended by Iron Man and others. The result, having made the headlines according to its complicated production, punctuated here and there by big worries, will unfortunately have deeply divided. But this is not a reason to bury too quickly the version concocted by Warner since behind the bad reputation inherited from the press, hides a work that gives a smile, a bit like Avengers, as its sincerity and love for the characters shines through on the screen. We will also remember beautiful moments alongside Batman, the careful interpretation of Superman and Gal Gadot, the humor of Flash (Ezra Miller), the very ambitious action scenes and as often with Zack Snyder, the scenes visually worked to excess, reflecting his hard work.
