This Week On Blu Ray - The Peacemaker from Paramount Home Video.





When a train carrying atomic warheads mysteriously crashes in the former Soviet Union, brilliant U.S. nuclear specialist Dr. Julia Kelly discovers the accident is really part of a diabolical plot to cover up the theft of the weapons. Assigned to help her recover the missing bombs is crack Special Forces Colonel Thomas Devoe, whose brash, take-no-prisoners style clashes with Kelly’s more diplomatic approach. Putting aside their personal differences – and budding romance – the two begin a tumultuous partnership as they track down the stolen weapons, following a deadly trail of espionage and intrigue that culminates in an unauthorized air assault inside Russian territory. Now, it’s a race against time to uncover the last missing warhead...before it’s too late.

Overall: This is an action thriller and intelligent one at that. Clooney and Kidman are attractive leads whose personalities are designed to provide a subtext of romantic friction. This works very well throughout the film. The Peacemaker, while not highly original, is definetly one of the better action-thrillers to have come out in recent years. I really like the original DVD so this one was a real treat on Blu ray.

I gotta go the popcorn's ready, I'm Larry Bennett and That's this week on Blu ray.
