Page 20 THE VILLADOM TIMES II & IV • September 18, 2013 DVD releases (continued from Restaurant page) a victim of violence, and a participant in a murder cover- up. Viewers see the strain on the relationship between mother and son as the boy wants to blend in, have friends, and divorce himself from his mother’s complicated issues. Highmore (“Finding Neverland”) has done his home- work. His expressions and mannerisms conjure memo- ries of Anthony Perkins as the adult Norman, and he is at his best observing, contemplating, and struggling with young Norman’s inner demons. Bonuses on both the 10-episode Blu-ray and DVD edi- tions include deleted scenes and a Paley Center discus- sion with the show’s cast and creative team. “Java Heat” (IFC) stars Mickey Rourke and Kellan Lutz in an exotic action thriller. Following a terrorist attack in Indonesia that killed the country’s beloved Sul- tana, American Jake Travers (Lutz) finds himself at the center of the already tense conflict between the West and Islam. Lost among labyrinths of religious, political, and cultural havoc in the world’s largest Muslim nation, Jake teams up with Muslim detective Hashim (Ario Bayu). They embark on a treacherous manhunt for the attack’s real perpetrator, a new breed of terrorist (Rourke) who is even more twisted and terrifying than the jihadist terror- ists. Jake must learn to abandon his thirst for vengeance in order to stop the mastermind from striking again. As a buddy flick, “Java Heat” falls flat. Lutz and Bayu try, but never develop believable camaraderie. The dia- logue is ordinary and merely serves to propel the pro- tagonists from one sequence of mayhem to the next. The action set pieces have a “been there-seen that” feel, as chases and gun battles fail to enliven a strictly routine movie. Blu-ray extras include a making-of featurette and a theatrical trailer. The film is also available on DVD. BBC Home Entertainment offers two new “Doctor Who” DVD releases. “The Ice Warriors” finds Earth facing a new Ice Age. While a dedicated team of scientists battles to hold the approaching glaciers at bay, a startling discovery is made deep within the ice -- an alien war- rior, frozen for thousands of years. It is soon discovered that Earth is under threat from the Ice Warriors, fearsome Martians intent on conquering our planet for themselves. “Scream of the Shalka,” the first fully animated Doctor Who story, follows the Tardis as it lands in a small Eng- lish village in 2003, where the population is living in fear of a malevolent alien force. With the help of UNIT and his new friend Alison, the doctor discovers that a race called the Shalka are residing underground, preparing to strip away Earth’s ozone layer and embark on a full-scale invasion of the planet. Both releases contain generous bonus features.
