Arrow Passengers Blu-ray Disc Review

Passengers on Blu-ray is set to be released on May 12, but we'd be very surprised to see copies of this relatively unknown film rushing off the shelves. The hype around Passengers was minimal at best, which is surprising, given Hollywood "It" girl and every woman's favorite leading lady Anne Hathaway has the starring role.

Never even heard of it. A quick perusing of other reviews said much the same thing. Long on promises, not quite up to the task on delivering on them. If I didn't have a full queue on Netflix, I might add this one.

I just added it to my queue. On short wait of course.
I like Anne Hathaway. While I haven't heard of it either I'm willing to give it a chance.

It's actually one of those "guy approved" chick flicks (sorta). The movie is likely to have surface appeal to women (and guys who find Anne Hathaway easy to watch) and it's not a completely "cutesey" schlubb of a movie. The supernatural twist is a Sixth Sense-like mystery.

Not a bad viewing by any means.
