NEW
MOVIES! JUNE 9 - JUNE 15, 2009
|
|
BABY ON BOARD (dir: Brian
Herzlinger, R) –
TWIN PEAKS’ stars Heather Graham and Lara Flynn Boyle reunite in this lousy pregnant lady comedy. |
|
 |
THE BUTTERFLY TATTOO (dir: Phil Hawkins, Not Rated) – Young love and
gang violence combine in an adaptation of a book by that guy who wrote THE GOLDEN COMPASS. It’s trying to sell itself to the TWILIGHT crowd, so if that’s you, sink your teeth into this one. |
|
 |
CROSSING OVER (dir: Wayne Kramer, R) – Hey, everybody! It’s the new Harrison Ford movie! Don’t know what it’s about, but
it's got crime and illegal immigration and you know you’re gonna rent it when nothing else is in. |
|
|
FIRED UP (dir: Will
Gluck, Unrated) – Two meathead jocks have the brilliant of idea of going to cheer camp so they can make it with a bunch of cheerleaders. Sounds hilarious, right? |
|
 |
FOREVER STRONG (dir: Ryan Little, PG-13) – Samwise Gamgee in a new rugby movie! What is this, RUDY 2: SCRUM TIME? |
|
 |
FREEZER BURN: THE INVASION OF LAXDALE (dir: Grant Harvey, R) – Tom
Green = funny & Crispin Glover = creepy. Together they are
crunny! Warning: you might have to be Canadian to understand this movie. |
|
|
*GRAN TORINO (dir: Clint Eastwood, R) – Clint Eastwood is a mean racist. I think everybody should boycott this movie. |
|
 |
THE INTERNATIONAL (dir: Tom
Tykwer, R) – Clive Owen wears a nice suit and fires an uzi and grits his teeth in a really threatening way in this action spy thriller from the director of RUN LOLA RUN. |
|
 |
^NICOTINA (dir: Hugo Rodriguez, R) –
This Tarantino/Guy Ritchie/GO-style crime caper from Mexico revolves
around the notion that, sure, smoking kills, but there are lots of
other stupid things you can do that will kill you quicker. |
|
|
SPINNING INTO BUTTER (dir: Mark Brokaw, R) –
S.J.P. (Sarah Jessica Parker) wants to be Michelle Pfeiffer so bad in this movie. But instead of a street school with bad kids,
S.J.P. teaches her kids at a fancy college in New England. Some stuff happens with African Americans and she feels bad and wants to prove she’s not a racist. It would be a lot cooler if Coolio did the soundtrack. |
|
 |
STRIKE (dir: Tommy Reid, Not Rated) – Tara Reid in bowling movie number two! This movie wishes it was KINGPIN, but mostly Tara Reid is a drunken
idiot who can only get cast in a movie when her brother is directing it. |
