By Bob Bloom The following Blu-rays and DVDs are being released on Tuesday, Oct. 31, unless otherwise noted: Kidnap (Blu-ray + DVD + digital) Details: 2017, Universal Studios Home Entertainment Rated: R, violence and danger The lowdown: Academy Award-winner Halle Berry stars in this thriller as a single mom spending the afternoon at the park with her son, who suddenly disappears. Berry’s Karla Dyson, who does not have her cellphone, and without any time to waste, jumps into her car and gives chase to keep her son and his abductor in sight. The drama stretches plausibility and it appears to lack tension. Critics were not very impressed, giving the film a 35 percent fresh rating at Rottentomatoes.com. Reportedly, the movie was shot in 2014 and has been lingering on the studio shelf since then.
