THE ONLY WAY TO WATCH AT HOME WHILE STILL IN THEATERS

Yeah, right. What theaters? 2,000 theaters dropped it last week, so it is only remaining in 278...somewhere. They've really dropped this one like a stone after its dismal opening.

I liked it, however.

Gruv.com is taking pre-orders for a Blu-ray, so we know there will be a physical release of this in due course. I haven't seen pre-orders anywhere else yet. Given the film's ridiculously low box office, I wasn't sure if there would be a disc but was happy to find that listing. They are not taking pre-orders for a UHD disc, so it appears the UHD is going to remain a digital exclusive.
