First up is sci-fi adventure Transformers: Dark of the Moon, which is out on DVD in 3D.

When a mysterious event from earth’s past erupts into the present day it threatens to bring a war so big the Transformers alone won’t be able to save us.

The movie may be a bit thin on script, but the special effects and 3D shots are pretty impressive.

The critically acclaimed classic To Kill A Mockingbird is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a digitally remastered and fully restored Blu Ray release.

The Oscar-winning Gregory Peck plays Atticus Finch, a lawyer in a radically divided Alabama town in the 1930s.

Finch puts his career on the line when he defends a black man accused of rape.

The trial and events surrounding it are seen through the eyes of Finch’s six-year-old daughter. The film is still as powerful and relevant as ever.

Also out is the animated family movie Kung Fu Panda 2. Po is now living the dream as the Dragon Warrior, but his new life is threatened by the emergence of a powerful villain, who plans to put his secret unstoppable weapon to conquer China.

The storyline may seem pretty familiar to fans of the original, but the film offers enough action and comedy moments to make it worth a watch.
