In Theaters Tomorrow...
Apparently with warmer weather come somewhat better films. This week we’ve got 2 thrillers, a comedy leaping from the small screen to the big, Billy Bob in space, a British flick and a film about how Tom Brady got his girlfriend pregnant. Also in limited release is a film detailing the abolition of slavery in England starring non other than Mr. Fantastic. I’m not so sure about AMAZING GRACE, but there is buzz that Youssou D’our has a chance to pick up supporting actor at next year’s Oscars. Tom Brady’s baby momma stars in a film entitled GREY MATTERS. No need to describe the plot, the only reason to go would be to watch her make out with Heather Graham… or you could see it here. STARTER FOR TEN IS a film about a college guy trying to impress another co-ed set in 1985 England, the reviews are vague and all I know about the film is that it did well overseas, stars the guy from KING OF SCOTLAND and claims to art house. Hold off on this one until further review. The last of the films that will fly under the radar on opening weekend is THE ABANDONED. This film came to fruition because the director, Nacho Cereda, was one of the standouts during October and November’s Horrorfest. An adopted woman visits her native Russia to find out more about her family only to discover dangerous family secrets. Keep an eye out for this one; we’ve got a fresh horror franchise in the making.
Now onto the films you’ve probably actually seen trailers for. THE ASTRONAUT FARMER looks like more of a family thing detailing how a pet project rocket gained the interest of the entire nation. It has good writers and I enjoy Angelina’s former flame, I hope that the film is good, but it could go either way. Jim Carey gets serious in THE NUMBER 23, a film about a man slowly going crazy with the idea that a book he is reading is based on his life… I think I liked the film better when it was funny, starred Will Ferrell and was called STRANGER THAN FICTION. Please cut your hair and find another non-comedy to try and jump-start your career Mr. Carey. Finally is the film that gets my personal $8.00 this weekend, RENO 911: MIAMI. I think these guys are hilarious, totally cashed in on the reality television thing at the right time and are not afraid to let other comedians come into their territory and steal the spotlight when necessary. I can’t wait to see what these guys do without the Comedy Central censors and whom they can get to cameo in this film.
