Good/Great Movies That Don't Deserve Their “Rotten" Scores

‘West Side Story’ Will Be Available Digitally in February

January 5, 2022 Jordan Ruimy

I’ve been getting some emails inquiring about when Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story” will be made available digitally. I’ve been messaging people for a week now and finally got an answer — it seems as though Searchlight/Disney will make Spielberg’s film available in early February with the plan being a Disney+ VOD launch.

The film needs the momentum boost and is banking on a slew of Oscar nominations to kickstart its campaign leading to a possible Best Picture prize. It’s barely made $30 million at the domestic box-office on a budget of $100 million (not counting marketing costs).

The 2022 Oscar nominations will be announced on February 8, 2022. Look for “West Side Story” to be available a few days after that. It badly needs to build up buzz amongst audiences, critical acclaim doesn’t seem to be enough to push it to Oscar gold.
