'Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time'

Veteran producer Jerry Bruckheimer ("Pirates of the Caribbean") plays with elements of history again, joined by director Mike Newell ("Four Weddings and a Funeral") in weaving the action-steeped saga of a young prince - portrayed by an impressively buff Jake Gyllenhaal - who's on the trail of a very special dagger.

It can alter time, and naturally, more sinister parties are after the knife as well. Gemma Arterton ( "Quantum of Solace"), Ben Kingsley and Alfred Molina also are in on the pursuit. DVD extra: "making-of" documentary. *** (PG-13: V) (Also on Blu-ray)
