Sylvester Stallone's musclebound mercenary Rambo arrives on DVD today, available in both standard and two-disc special editions. Also debuting are John Cusack's Iraq War drama Grace is Gone; Woody Allen's sibling rivalry drama Cassandra's Dream; Chinese director Jieho Lee's trippy crime drama The Air I Breathe; and the searing documentary Darfur Now.
Our DVD pick of the week is the Blu-ray edition of Rambo: The Complete Collector's Set. Buy it now and revisit every spectacular kill in sparkling high definition. The picture is so clear that astute lip-readers can now make out much of Stallone's previously indecipherable mumbling.

The sprawling fantasy epic The Golden Compass storms into theaters this weekend, accompanied by a gaggle of smaller releases, including the highly buzzworthy flicks Juno, Atonement and Grace is Gone.
A rundown of our reviews of this weekend's new releases:
The Golden Compass 
"No amount of CGI wizardry or bear-on-bear action can save this movie from collapsing under the weight of its many structural flaws." [Full Review]
Atonement 
"An epic war-time love story...as beautiful as it is thought-provoking and soulful, Atonement is a December must-see." [Full Review]
Revolver 
"Guy Ritchie's latest is a mind-numbing, sanity-challenging debacle." [Full Review]
Juno
"A charming and sweetly sardonic tale of teen pregnancy...one of 2007's best and most enjoyable films." [Full Review]
Grace is Gone 
"There were times when it felt almost too indie to me...but it's still a noteworthy effort." [Full Review]
The Amateurs 
"Despite a great cast and amusing plotline, The Amateurs falls flat." [Full Review]
Also opening: Noelle, Strength and Honor, Timber Falls and The Walker.
