Savages (Blu-ray)

Oliver Stone directs this fast-paced thriller based on the novel by Don Winslow, from a screenplay co-written by the author and Shane Salerno. Living the beautiful life, successful young Californian marijuana dealers, Chon (Taylor Kitsch) and Ben (Aaron Johnson), suddenly find their lucrative business threatened when a Mexican drug cartel, Baja, kidnaps their shared girlfriend, Ophelia (Blake Lively), and demands a slice of the action. When Chon and Ben, with the aid of self-serving DEA agent Dennis (John Travolta), decide to resist the cartel's overtures and fight back, all hell breaks loose as the rival camps go head to head in a high stakes war for control. The all-star ensemble cast also includes Benicio del Toro, Salma Hayek, Emile Hirsch and Uma Thurman.
