Among the titles that Universal Home Entertainment is moving over to Blu-Ray are also two movies starring Clive Owen – that taut bank heist thriller Inside Man and the futuristic action drama Children Of Men

Academy Award winner Denzel Washington, Academy Award nominee Clive Owen and Academy Award winner Jodie Foster star in Inside Man, an intense and explosive crime thriller. The perfect bank robbery quickly spirals into an unstable and deadly game of cat-and-mouse between a criminal mastermind (Owen), a determined detective (Washington), and a power broker with a hidden agenda (Foster). As the minutes tick by and the situation becomes increasingly tense, one wrong move could mean disaster for any one of them. From acclaimed director Spike Lee comes the edge-of-your-seat, action-packed thriller The Wall Street Journal calls “a heist film that’s right on the money.”

The release features a 1080p high definition transfer and supplements it with a DTS 5.1 HD Master Lossless Audio track and a Commentary Track by Director Spike Lee. Also included is The Making of Inside Man and the Featurette ”Number 4”. The release is completed by a series of Deleted Scenes.

It has been eighteen years since the last baby was born and disillusioned Theo (Clive Owen) becomes an unlikely champion of the human race when he is asked by his former lover (Julianne Moore) to escort a young pregnant woman out of the country as quickly as possible. In this thrilling race against time, Theo will risk everything to deliver the miracle the whole world has been waiting for. Co-starring Michael Caine, filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón’s Children Of Men is the powerful film Pete Hammond of Maxim calls “magnificent…a unique and totally original vision.”
