'M:I:III,' 'Nacho' out on DVD

New DVDs are typically released each Tuesday, but "Mission: Impossible III" is going to get a leg up on next week's competition ... it's coming out on Monday.

OK, not that much of a leg up.

Anyway, here's a mix of new-to-DVD movies, some in stores this week and some arriving next Tuesday — led by the one that comes out Monday, Tom Cruise's latest Ethan Hunt adventure.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III (Paramount, 2006, PG-13, $24.99, two discs). Actually, if you can rid your mind of images of Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah's couch, this is a pretty good thriller, with solid action scenes, a good supporting cast and a nice sinister turn by Philip Seymour Hoffman as the chief bad guy. Mindless over-the-top explosive fun.

Extras: Widescreen, deleted scenes, audio commentary, featurettes, photo gallery, trailers, language options (English, French), subtitle options (English, Spanish), chapters. (Also available as one disc, separate widescreen and full-frame editions, $19.99.)

NACHO LIBRE (Paramount, 2006, PG, $29.99). Turning off your brain might also help with this one, local boy Jared Hess' follow-up to "Napoleon Dynamite." Jack Black stars as a cook in a Mexican monastery who moonlights as a flamboyant wrestler. It was a disappointment for me — but then I am clearly not part of the target demographic.

Extras: Separate widescreen and full-frame editions, audio commentary (Black, Hess, Mike White), deleted scenes, featurettes, photo gallery, language options (English, French), subtitle options (English, Spanish), chapters.

LOOKING FOR KITTY (THINKFilm, 2006; R for language; $29.99). Edward Burns, who also stars in his movies, is another filmmaker whose work is an acquired taste. This is a low-budget, shot-on-video, sad-sack yarn set in New York, with Burns as a down-at-the-heels detective hired by a poor schlub (David Krumholz, of TV's "Numb3rs") to help him find his wife. Low-key film never quite gels but Burns' fans should enjoy it.

Extras: Widescreen, alternate opening, audio commentary (Burns), trailers, optional English subtitles, chapters.

KEEPING UP WITH THE STEINS (Miramax, 2006, PG-13, $29.99). Occasionally amusing comedy about a show-biz agent in competition with a business rival over who can throw the biggest, most flamboyant bar mitzvah for his son. Good cast includes Larry Miller, Doris Roberts, Jami Getz , Daryl Hannah, and Garry Marshall, whose son Scott directed.
