4/7 DVDs

Bedtime Stories - Russell Brand AND Adam Sandler? NO THANK YOU.
VERDICT: SKIP IT

The Day the Earth Stood Still - Not as terrible as I thought it would be, though it still has nothing on the original, and its probably not worth a purchase at this stage at least.
VERDICT: RENT IT

The Tale of Despereaux - Though I have not seen the movie it looks to be the most promising of the releases this week. A B list cast but an animated movie can overcome that.
VERDICT: RENT IT

Yes Man - I like Jim Carrey but this looks awful.
VERDICT: SKIP IT

4/3 Theatrical Releases

Two movies this week, again I ask though: Are they worth your time?

Fast and Furious - Do we SERIOUSLY need another one of these movies? Terrible movie looks terrible. You are a fool if you pay money to see this.
VERDICT: SKIP IT

Adventureland - Though it seems Greg Mottola has a knack for making the same movie again, it appears this one may be a winner. After making Superbad you'd think Mottola would want to make a movie that was about as far away from a Coming-of-age-Teen comedy as he could, but he made another one anyway. Seems like he knows what he's doing though.
VERDICT: SEE IT.

3/31 DVD Releases

Three releases tomorrow, but are any worth your time?

Marley & Me - The Owen Wilson-Dog comedy comes out tomorrow, and though i didn't see it nothing about the trailers makes me want to.
VERDICT: SKIP IT

Seven Pounds - Will Smith is a great actor, I also haven't seen this one, but it doesn't look terrible. Plus none of my friends that saw it had anything bad to say.
VERDICT: RENT IT

Slumdog Millionaire - Though I don't think the movie was quite as good as everyone else does, it is still worth watching at least once.
VERDICT: RENT IT

3/27 Theatrical Releases

Three movies this weekend, and only one looks to be a winner.

12 Rounds - I was impressed by the previous works of the director/producer of this movie when they first showed them at the beginning of the trailer (Die Hard 2 and Speed). But then I saw the trailer. Man does this look bad. Like 88 Minutes meets Untraceable to me.
VERDICT: SKIP IT

The Haunting in Connecticut - If this wasn't rated PG-13 it could be about 6 kinds of awesome. But it is, so it wont be.
VERDICT: SKIP IT

Monsters vs Aliens - Dreamworks has a good track record on their movies, so there is no way that this will be bad. The only problem is YES its a kids movie, so if I end up seeing it it wont be til a late show.
VERDICT: WATCH IT

Where the Wild Things Are Trailer

WATCH and be AMAZED

3/24 DVDs

While Twilight came out on Saturday, and we can all guess what my verdict would have been on that. Only 2 new releases come out tomorrow.

Bolt - I didn't see the movie, but it honestly can't be terrible.
VERDICT: RENT IT

Quantum of Solace - Though I will not be buying it, and was marginally disappointed in it. There are a lot of you out there that will buy it because you're Craig fans (which I'm not).
VERDICT: SKIP IT

3/13 Release Dates

This is a big weekend man. Spring Break starts and THREE new movies come out into theaters.

They are:

Last House on The Left - The Remake train continues and it's finally stopped at something that NEEDED remaking. While I enjoy the original Last House, man does it have problems. If I was going to watch any of the three that come out this weekend it would be this one.

Miss March - I LOVE Whitest Kids You Know. So when I found out that two of them were making a movie, I was very excited. Then I saw the trailer, and I cried a little bit inside. This movie looks like six different kinds of terrible. Skip it at all costs.

Race to Witch Mountain - The Remake train is pulling overtime this weekend, but this remake didn't need to be made. Skip.


We can officially dub this weekend, "If you Haven't seen Watchmen at least once, then don't see any new releases" weekend.
