Joseph Kahn’s Detention is out on DVD today and if you haven’t seen it then it you should. It is one of the best teen/slasher/ursine time travel/comedy films in recent years.

After losing out to Andrew Garfield for the role of Peter Parker in the upcoming Spider-Man reboot, and having his audition tape unceremoniously leaked onto the internet, it is nice to see Josh Hutcherson back on his feet.
