 | | 4. Bird-Film By Clint Eastwood | | | Starring: Forest Whitaker Director: Clint Eastwood | | Format: DVD Release Date: 7/22/2008 |  | Bird - DVD Review By: Katey Rich - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 7/25/2008 10:10 AM | | The film's pitch-black, occasionally murky cinematography makes for rough viewing on a small television, but would be a treat for anyone looking for the way Eastwood's distinct visual style has evolved over the years (and who has a substantial home theater setup). Bird is a classic example of a difficult, arty movie-it was nominated for the Palme d'Or at Cannes-but offers much to enjoy, especially for those with any knowledge of jazz read the full review | |

 | | 6. The Last King of Scotland (Widescreen) | | | Starring: Forest Whitaker James McAvoy Director: Kevin MacDonald | | Format: DVD Release Date: 4/17/2007 |  | The Last King of Scotland - DVD By: Anne Gilbert - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 4/6/2007 6:34 PM | |
It's very seductive when the popular and powerful want to welcome you into their inner circle, and none is more susceptible to the charms than the brash and reckless new doctor Nicholas Gerrigan. Of course, it's an especially dangerous proposition when the king of the popular crowd happens to be Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, at the cusp of his meteoric rise to vicious despotism. The Last King of Scotland is a biography told like a coming-of-age drama. read the full review | |

 | | 7. Even Money | | | Starring: Forest Whitaker Kelsey Grammer Director: Mark Rydell | | Format: DVD Release Date: 6/10/2008 |  | Even Money - DVD Review By: Jarad I. Wilk - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 9/17/2007 10:13 PM | | Despite its dark overtone, the films brightest spot belongs to DeVito. He is likeable and loveable as a slight-of-hand magician, formerly known as the Amazing Abraham, who has aspirations of making it to the big stage once again. He's stuck performing tricks to anyone willing to give him a few bucks while they're having dinner. This character is loveable because he's not the brightest man, and doesn't have much in his life besides his magic read the full review | |

 | | 10. Street Kings | | | Starring: Chris Evans Forest Whitaker Director: David Ayer | | Format: DVD Release Date: 6/16/2009 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | Street Kings (Special Edition + Digital Copy) - DVD Review By: Derek Fleek - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 1/5/2009 2:42 AM | | In a time of diminished respect for crooked cop flicks, Street Kings decided to try to revive a genre that is long past its peak since Training Day took awards. Imagine Street Kings as the little brother of Training Day, tagging along with an annoying sense of unintentional humor while simultaneously being loud and obnoxious. Unlike its older brother, this sleazy dirty cop thriller has no brains and no zest to bring this genre back to life. read the full review | |
