"Did You Hear About The Morgans?" is not going to change your life or make cinema history. You wouldn't expect it to.

What it is, however, is a good little romantic comedy starring Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker.

The Morgans are having problems with their marriage. When they happen to witness a murder and end up being put into a witness relocation program the fun really begins. Both of the Morgans are high powered execs that live their lives with their Blackberries and are used to the New York city life. The US Marshalls place them in a tiny town in the middle of Wyoming where they're completely cut off from the city life and all they are used to.

The results are amusing. Not hilarious most of the time, but quite amusing.

Hugh Grant plays Hugh Grant basically. While that can be quite amusing at times it can get a little tired.

The supporting cast include Sam Elliot (Ghost Rider, The Golden Compass), who seems to have been playing cowboys for an eternity. This time round he's matched with Mary Steenburgen (Step Brothers) , who seems to like guns more than jewelry.

Here's a clip:

The Blade trilogy naturally lend themselves to bluray.

All three films have great visuals and a pumping soundtrack which deserves the kind of audio treatment only bluray transfers can really bring.

So why is it that Blade's only bluray release so far is the Canadian one?

And why is that release completely devoid of extras?? (Unless you count a choice of 3 audio tracks as an extra .. )

If you ignore the total lack of extras what are you left with?

The picture quality is pretty good, but not exactly amazing.
The audio track is excellent for the most part, though several people seem to have expected the bass track to be a lot heavier. Personally I didn't notice, though I did have to turn down the volume!

Amazon.ca is listing upcoming releases of both Blade sequels on bluray, but if the releases are as underpowered as this one I wouldn't rush to get them.
