DVD reviews: Fright Night and more

Fright Night

Who's in it? Anton Yelchin, Colin Farrell, Toni Collette
Rating 4/5
The remake of the 80s comedy horror follows a teen (Yelchin) who thinks his neighbour (Farrell) is a vampire responsible for deaths in the neighbourhood. It's wry and slick.

Desi Boyz

Who's in it? John Abraham, Akshay Kumar
Rating 3/5
Abraham and Kumar shine in this story of two men who have to go to drastic lengths to make a living after the 2009 recession. It's a light-hearted film with great music and chemistry between the stars.

The Ides of March

Who's in it? George Clooney, Ryan Gosling, Marisa Tomei
Rating 4/5
This intelligent drama was written and directed by Clooney, and he also stars. It follows a young advisor (Gosling), who gets entangled in the dangerous political landscape when working for a governor who's running for President (Clooney). The acting is class.
