DVD

Talk about bad romanceWoody Allen's "You Will Meet a Tall, Dark Stranger" is filled with people stuck in, on the way out of or about to enter into unhappy and/or unwise relationships. Alfie (Anthony Hopkins) has left his wife of 40 years, Helena (Gemma Jones). She "allowed herself to become old," he tells his much younger new flame, Charmaine (Lucy Punch), a blowsy prostitute. Helena, after an attempted suicide, has found solace in the counsel of a clairvoyant (Pauline Collins). Meanwhile, Sally (Naomi Watts) develops a crush on her handsome art gallery owner boss, Greg (Antonio Banderas); Sally's husband, Roy (Josh Brolin), a novelist nervously awaiting the response to his latest manuscript, becomes moonstruck over Dia (Frieda Pinto), a mystery woman who catches his gaze through a window. The DVD and Blu-ray (Sony, $29-$39) have no extras, except for a trailer.

GAME

Shooter misses targetMost gamers could rattle off a dozen or more worthwhile military-themed shooters. But compared with those, "Breach" ($15-$20 download for Xbox 360 and PC; rated Teen) requires too much time for too little reward. The game takes far too long to unlock and upgrade weapons and equipment, leaving players wondering if they'll ever get something as simple as a nicer scope or a fancier grenade. "Breach" is strictly team-based, much like "MAG" was for the PlayStation 3 last year. The game play ranges from your typical death-match modes to more interesting scenarios such as Convoy, where one side must traverse a heavily guarded route. "Breach" features several worthy elements, but fails to stand out in a crowded field.

GADGET

Time to turn the pageAt long last, page numbers are finally coming to the Kindle. Amazon's popular e-book reader uses a percentage indicator to track a reader's progress in a book, which can make for some interesting discussions. "How far are you in the last Stieg Larsson book?" someone may ask.

"Oh, I'm at 37 percent," you'd be forced to respond. Amazon will still use that method for the main display, but will now allow readers to see what page they'd be on if they were reading a print copy of the same book. This will make it easier for those reading a book along with a club or class to compare notes. The new software for Kindle is available now online for a manual installation (www.startribune.com/a194), or you can wait patiently for it to be sent automatically to your device wirelessly.
