New Movies on DVD & Blu-ray: April 7

"Call it, friendo." The Coen Brothers' Oscar-winning suspense thriller returns with new collectable three-disc DVD and 2-disc Blu-ray editions. Based on Cormac McCarthy's acclaimed novel, the gripping story stars Josh Brolin as a West Texas average Joe who stumbles across drug money and decides to keep it, setting off an unstoppable chain of violence -- and a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with assassin Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem). Tommy Lee Jones is the local sheriff who is just one step behind the carnage.

The new disc editions come packed with more than five hours of comprehensive bonus features, available for the first time ever, including an unauthorized trip backstage with Brolin; "Working with the Coens," in which cast and crew talk about working with the legendary duo; "The Diary of a Country Sheriff," a look at the relationship between Brolin and Bardem's characters through the eyes of Sheriff Ed Tom Bell; and the behind-the-scenes featurette "The Making of 'No Country For Old Men.'" A digital copy of the movie is also included.

Matthew Broderick lends his vocal talents to the title character, a sickly, tiny mouse with comically oversized ears who overcomes his weaknesses to become a brave and virtuous role model. The action takes place once upon a time in the faraway kingdom of Dor, where rats and soup have been banished ever since one (Roscuro, voiced by Dustin Hoffman) was found in a bowl of the Queen's beloved, mouth-watering soup, giving her a fatal heart attack. While Roscuro plots to free the rats from their world of darkness, Despereaux falls in love with a princess named Pea, with all of their fates becoming dramatically intertwined. Also featuring the voices of Kevin Kline, Frank Langella, William H. Macy, Stanley Tucci, Tracey Ullman, and Sigourney Weaver and more, the fantasy film is based on the beloved children's book by Kate DiCamillo.

Special features include "The Making of 'The Tale of Despereaux,'" "Despereaux's Quest" game, "Build-a-Boldo" game, DVD-ROM activities and more!

Jim Carrey plays a man who is transformed by the power of a simple "yes" answer to anything and everything in his latest comedy. Based on the best-seller, Jim plays Carl Allen, a guy whose operative word is "No" -- and his life is going nowhere. But when he signs up for a self-help program, the power of saying "Yes" to everything soon transforms his life in amazing and unexpected ways. But is his willingness to embrace every opportunity too much of a good thing? The film also stars Zooey Deschanel, Bradley Cooper, Danny Masterson and Terence Stamp.

Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly team up for a modern-day update of the '50s sci-fi classic. Will Keanu's character save the human race, or destroy it? The 'Matrix' trilogy star plays Klaatu, a humanoid alien who lands on earth to warn world leaders -- with the help of an indestructible guardian -- to stop destroying the earth or the human race will be annihilated by watchers from above. Jennifer is the astro-biologist who may hold the key to mankind's survival.

Klaatu, Barada, Nikto! All editions of the DVD come packaged with the original 1951 version of the film. Special features on the three-disc special edition DVDs and Blu-rays include a digital copy of the film, deleted scenes, filmmaker commentary, still galleries with concept art, storyboards and production photos, and the featurettes "Re-Imagining 'The Day,'" "Unleashing Gort," "Watching The Skies: In Search Of Extraterrestrial Life" and "The Day The Earth Was 'Green.'"

John Patrick Shanley's Pulitzer Prize-winning play is now an Oscar-nominated drama starring Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Amy Adams. The drama unfolds in a Bronx Catholic school, circa 1964. Streep plays Sister Aloysius Beauvier, the iron-gloved school principal who rules through fear and discipline. Hoffman plays Father Flynn, a charismatic priest who is trying to loosen up the school's strict guidelines and customs. When the school accepts its first black student, Sister James (Adams) believes Flynn is paying too much personal attention to him. Soon, a battle of wills ensues as Beauvier embarks on a crusade to oust Flynn from the school.

Special features include filmmaker commentary; a conversation with the cast; Shanley tracks the journey "From Stage to Screen"; composer Howard Shore discusses the film's score; and in the insightful and lively "The Sisters of Charity," Streep and Shanley talk about the interviews with real nuns conducted before shooting to make sure they would be accurately portrayed in the film.
