Okay, so I missed a week (maybe two I've lost track)(What am I? A machine!? Go pick on someone who doesn't have a life. Oh wait. That's me.). That's no excuse for the studios to release a week of pure trash. I did not deserve this.
In retaliation, I will recommend previous weeks releases that would have made my top three list had I been slightly less lazy. Procrastination and I are familiar friends.
1) Hero
2) Vanity Fair
3) Suspect Zero
Vanity Fair
Reese Witherspoon plays a poor Londoner in 19th century(?) England, trying to climb her way up high society's steep ladder. I like Reese, and I like themes involving women who kick ass. This could be worthwhile.
The Cookout
I'd rather choke on an Adkins diet than see this bowel movement about a basketball star that tries to keep it real by throwing a block party.
Paparazzi
A rising star is hounded by the evil shutterbugs until his family is killed in an accident al a Princess Di, then he gets his vengeance on.
Wicker Park
I'm still having trouble figuring out the plot of this movie out. Its a little bit Single White Female with some other stuff thrown in for good measure. The synopsis and trailers throw around the word "obsession" a lot. This could be good.
Then again, Josh Hartnett and Mathew Lillard are at the helm. This could suck.
Warriors of Heaven and Earth
Another sub-par kung fu movie. You're better off seeing Hero, which is stunning.
