Lots of major-studio films are on Blu-ray and DVD this week, but the best of the lot is The Cokeville Miracle, a locally made faith film.
The Cokeville Miracle (Excel/Blu-ray/DVD, 2015, PG-13, audio commentary, featurettes). Local moviemaker T.C. Christensens powerful film relates the true story of how deluded, self-proclaimed genius David Young (Nathan Stevens) took guns and a gasoline bomb into a Cokeville, Wyoming, elementary school in 1986. There, he terrorized some 150 children and faculty for hours before the bomb went off, leading to a violent conclusion.
That essentially sums up the first hour or so, which is tense and frightening and quite compelling. But its what happens next that sets Cokeville apart from other kids-in-peril movies. During the days that follow, the children begin to independently and hesitantly tell stories of angels protecting them during the crisis, and the films emotional impact really kicks in.
Christensen takes a matter-of-fact approach, allowing us to get to know several characters as he lays out the storys foundation. He has always been good with children, and their performances here are quite natural. The result is a faith film that deserves to be ranked with the best of the genre, one that should be able to reach a wide audience in this DVD/Blu-ray release.
For comparisons sake I recently watched the 1994 CBS-TV movie To Save the Children, with Richard Thomas as Young and Robert Urich as a teacher. Its not a bad retelling of the same story but the ending feels flat, especially after watching Cokeville. The revelations by the children about their spiritual encounters are essential; without them its akin to turning off the movie before its over. (The featurettes and Christensens audio commentary also offer some nice insights.)
Cinderella (Disney/Blu-ray/DVD/Digital/On Demand, 2015, PG, alternate opening, featurettes, cartoon: Frozen Fever). Disney hit it big (No. 6 on the box-office chart) with this live-action version of one of the studios most beloved cartoon features. Kenneth Branagh directs with a light touch and liberal dollops of humor, though its essentially told straight. Lily James stars in the title role, Cate Blanchett stands out as her stepmother, and Stellan Skarsgard, Helena Bonham Carter and Derek Jacobi co-star.
Love & Mercy (Lionsgate/Blu-ray/DVD/On Demand, 2015, PG-13, deleted scenes, audio commentary, featurettes). Compelling show-biz biography with Paul Dano excellent as troubled Brian Wilson during the formation of the Beach Boys in the 1960s and John Cusack as the older, heavily medicated Wilson when he was under the thumb of megalomaniac psychotherapist Eugene Landy (Paul Giamatti). Elizabeth Banks also shines as the independent woman who comes into Wilsons life late and tries to save him. And all those great songs certainly help.
The Age of Adaline (Lionsgate/Blu-ray/DVD/Digital/On Demand, PG-13, deleted scenes, audio commentary, featurettes). Interesting but curiously aloof story of a woman (Blake Lively) who, after being struck by lightning, never ages, sending her through the decades with a fear of falling in love. Enormous plot holes are never addressed, but Lively is charming, and the film gets a boost from key supporting performances by Ellen Burstyn and Harrison Ford.
Furious 7 (Universal/Blu-ray/DVD/Digital/On Demand, 2015, PG-13, extended and theatrical versions, deleted scenes, featurettes, music video). Forget laws of physics, turn off your brain and just accept this action sequel on its own terms as the Smokey and the Bandit of the Internet age and youll have a good time. A surprise hit, this one went on to become the fourth biggest moneymaker of the year. (The extended version, by the way, is a scant two minutes longer.)
