COACH CARTER, HEARTBREAK KID, and HOT ROD hit Blu-ray this week
Based on an incredible true story, Coach Carter is the inspirational account of controversial basketball coach Ken Carter (Academy Award nominee Samuel L. Jackson), who received both high praise and staunch criticism when he made national news for a gymnasium "lockout" of his entire undefeated team for poor academic performance. With the players, the parents, and the community rallying to get the team back on the court, Carter must overcome the obstacles of his environment and show the young men a future that stretches beyond gangs, drugs, prison and even basketball.

Andy Samberg (Saturday Night Live) stars as Rod Kimble, a stuntman with a fake mustache and a dream, in this outrageous comedy so unpredictable you won't know what hit you! Rod has never landed a jump without wiping out. His family and friends think he's a joke. And, to top it off, his stepfather Frank uses him as his own personal punching bag. But he's not going to let a few minor problems keep him from the biggest stunt of his life!
Co-starring Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers) and Ian McShane (Shrek The Third), Hot Rod is "very, very funny from start to finish" and scales the heights of hilarity as Rod defies death to win the money, win the girl and, ultimately, win some respect.

BIGFANBOY.com special notes:
While I'm not a big fan of THE HEARTBREAK KID remake, I actually rather enjoyed HOT ROD. I mean sure, it's a stupid movie, but I laughed frequently and left it feeling good. It's one of those films that I think will become a guilty pleasure for many as time goes on. Andy Samberg could have become the next Adam Sandler, but sadly hardly anyone saw it. Personally, I'm happy to have it in my Blu-ray collection.
