The dynamic superstar portrays Porter, a career criminal bent on revenge after his partners in a street heist pump metal into him and take off with his $70,000 cut. Bad move, thugs. Because if you plan to double-cross Porter, you'd better make sure he's dead. Porter resurfaces, wading into a lurid urban underworld of syndicate kingpins, cops on the take, sniveling informants and deadly gangs. Porter wants his money back. And the way he sets out to get it assures that, from beginning to heartpounding end, Payback pays off big.

About the DVD: The look and sound of this DVD are exceptional. Payback was filmed using an interestingly subdued, desaturated color palette, so don't use this DVD to set your color levels.

		Con Air When the government puts all its rotten criminal eggs in one airborne basket, it's asking for trouble. Before you can say, "Pass the barf bag," the crooks control the plane, led by creepy Cyrus "The Virus" Grissom (John Malkovich). Watching his every move is the just-released Nicolas Cage, who'd rather reunite with his family. The action climaxes with an incredible crash sequence in Las Vegas.  More Like This		R	(1997)

Satan has taken over the body of a Wall Street banker (Gabriel Byrne) and has one goal in mind: mating with an innocent woman (Robin Tunney) before the end of the millennium (thus setting off Armageddon). Can Arnold save her -- and the world -- in time?  More Like This		R	(1999)

A solid remake of another solid film (1967's Point Blank) about a bad guy who wants his fair share of heist money. When he doesn't get it, bad things start to happen to everybody involved. Mel Gibson is terrific, and the film hits (sometimes literally) all the right notes.
