MOVIES FOR THE WEEKEND

BIG WEEKEND!  Magic Mike, Ted, and Moonrise Kingdom.  Not sure when I'll see each one but those are the big releases for me this weekend.

From Netflix is the Oscar nominated drama Bullhead.

FINALLY

MOVIES FOR THE WEEKEND

I will probably check out Seeking a Friend for the End of the World on Sunday.  I also want to see Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter but will save that for a matinee after work next week.  Moonrise Kingdom is still a no-show in my area.  This is getting annoying...

Nothing from Netflix this weekend -- sending back the dark and funny Jeff, Who Lives at Home, which while satisfying didn't hit the brilliant heights of Cyrus, the last film from the Duplass brothers.

WILD, ASININE FUN

WOWSERS!!!

MOVIES FOR THE WEEKEND

Much to my annoyance, there's nothing to see this weekend in the theater.  This shouldn't be the case.  There should be something to see every weekend, especially during the summer.  So many small films are out there but none of them are in my area yet. 

From Netflix is the much-buzzed-about We Need to Talk About Kevin.

CURIOUS

MOVIES FOR THE WEEKEND

Prometheus lands today.  And I've got my ticket for 10:45am tomorrow...

Nothing from Netflix; sending back the excellent and subtly deceptive Certified Copy.

Gotta check what dropped HD On Demand...

THE RETURN OF BOBBY Z!!!

HYSTERICAL

MOVIES FOR THE WEEKEND

Definitely going to check out Snow White & The Huntsman -- looks very stylish and slick and I'm normally not too big on LOTR-esque fantasy stuff.  But for some reason, just judging from the trailers, I think this one is going to be cool, at least from a visual stand-point.

Nothing from Netflix; sending back Jordan Scott's moody, artsy, and interesting debut -- Cracks, starring the always excellent Eva Green as a psychotic all-girls-school teacher who gets a wee-bit-too-infatuated with one of her students.  A nasty little film with some truly elegant cinematography (it's nice when dad, in this case Sir Ridley, calls up John Mathieson and asks him to do a favor...)
