Synopsis
Battle weary English knight Jacob wanders to the ends of the earth to flee the horror of the crusades. But when he agrees to
bodyguard royal siblings Lian and Zhao once again he finds himself selling his sword in a faraway land. Lian's tyrannical brother
Shing has seized the throne from rightful heir Zhao and his rule threatens to plunge the land into chaos. To restore peace Jacob must escort the two most wanted fugitives in the kingdom on an impossibly perilous cross-country passage. With only ragtag bandit Gallain to help them the outcasts will face a legion of assassins led by Shing himself, the greatest swordsman to have ever lived.

This week on the home market is another week that is good on top, but shallow in terms of depth. The number one film of the week is Interstellar which is worth checking out, but not Pick of the Week material. There are a quartet of Pick of the Week contenders, including two limited releases (The Imitation Game - Buy from Amazon: DVD or Blu-ray and Wild - Buy from Amazon: DVD or Blu-ray) and two TV on DVD releases (VEEP: Season 3 - Buy from Amazon: DVD or Blu-ray and Silicon Valley: Season 1 - Buy from Amazon: DVD or Blu-ray). Of these four, I went with Veep as the Pick of the Week.

Like last week, this week's list is more of a highlights. It is the heart of Oscar season, so it is hard to have the time to research all dozen plus limited releases coming out each week. Additionally, this week most of the limited releases are opening with no buzz and bad reviews and many of them are only coming out in theaters to boost their Video on Demand release. That is not to say there are no good new releases coming out... there are three films earning overwhelmingly positive reviews. Two of those are documentaries and the other, The Voices, is coming out on Video on Demand. It is going to be a really bad weekend at the box office for limited releases.
