Next month, Universal Studios Home Entertainment will bring Tower Heist to Blu-ray. This action-comedy stars Ben Stiller (Night at the Museum) as Josh Kovacs, an apartment building manager who enlists the services of his staff to rob the Wall Street investment advisor (Alan Alda, The Aviator) who funneled their respective retirement funds into a Ponzi scheme.
Out of his league in terms of planning such an operation, Kovacs seeks out a career criminal (Eddie Murphy, Dreamgirls) for guidance and tries to avoid the attention of a sympathetic-but-dogged FBI agent (Téa Leoni, Bad Boys).
