Here’s a look at what’s new or notable in home video. Movies and TV series are available on streaming sites such as iTunes, Amazon and Vudu unless otherwise noted.
Notable — Rent it
“Trolls World Tour”: With hard rockers threatening a Troll Kingdom takeover, pop music-loving Poppy (voiced by Anna Kendrick) sets out to unite the kingdoms of funk, techno, country and classical music. The lesson: We need to respect our differences but learn to play together.
For the kids, a troll poops a birthday cake. For the adults, smooth jazz takes a mellow beating. For everyone stuck at home, the last big Hollywood movie anyone will see for months (the result of productions interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic) is a candy-colored children’s movie rooted in music criticism — unexpected but OK.
Previously released in theaters and on demand; now available on Blu-ray and to rent on digital services.
New — Rent it
“Bloody Nose, Empty Pockets”: You can’t go to bars right now, but you can hang out for a night at The Roaring ’20s in Las Vegas, the subject of this innovative feature, which was a hit at Sundance this year. It’s especially timely because it captures the final night of a dive bar that’s closing, eavesdropping on folks who have bonded over countless nights of boozy talk and are about to lose the closest thing many of them have to a home.
The movie is largely improvised and features a cast of mostly nonactors recruited from New Orleans bars, though the alcohol they’re drinking is real.
Available to rent starting Wednesday via Alamo Drafthouse On Demand at drafthouse.com.
New — Reissue
“Wild Palms”: In the wake of “Twin Peaks,” it must have seemed like anything was possible on network TV. Take for example ABC’s “Wild Palms,” a surreal, near future sci-fi miniseries about a company with a monopoly on interactive technology plotting to take over the U.S.
Conspiracy theories and reality are becoming confused, and political factions are on the verge of violence. Crazy stuff. With Jim Belushi, Dana Delany and Kim Catrall.
On sale now on Kino Lorber Blu-ray.
Also streaming
“The Old Guard”: Charlize Theron stars in a superhero movie about a band of ageless warriors who are growing tired of saving humanity. Premieres Friday on Netflix. Read the review.
“Palm Springs”: This romantic comedy is a variation of “Groundhog Day” with Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti as wedding guests — she’s the maid of honor — who become trapped in a time loop. Premieres Friday on Hulu.
