Prisoners Escapes Onto Blu-ray This December
I’m sorry, but Wolverine has nothing on Hugh Jackman’s character here in Prisoners. Whether or not you believe in his twisted form of justice or not is your problem. I just know that this guy is an animal in this film and I’m looking forward to re-visiting this one on Blu-ray when it arrives December 17th from Warner Bros. as a Blu-ray Combo Pack. Every moment matters in this release that includes bonus content featuring interviews with the all-star cast as well as an UltraViolet copy of the film too. Check out the full press release below for more heart-pounding information!
