WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE On Blu-ray March 25th!
Believe it or not, I’ve been looking forward to this one, as its been getting some good acclaim and buzz from people I do trust. It’s Jean Claude Van Damme in an adventure comedy, and after that car commercial where he did the splits, what wrong can this man do? It also boasts Adam Brody, Dennis Haysbert and the always great to see in things Rob Huebel (except SHIELD which totally wasted him). Universal is bringing this one to glorious Blu-ray on March 25th. Here’s hoping for some good laughs and kick ass throwback pure action! You can read more about this release below, as well as pre-order it to make sure your JCVD Blu-ray collection is complete and up to date (btw, can we get a US Hard Target release please? Thanks)!
