AT THE MOVIES

First and foremost, allow me to say that my favorite theatre, my only theatre, is AMC Tustin 14 at the District. An excellent theatre, new enough to be modern in decoration and scenery, and old enough that the comfortable seats give just enough when you fall into their cushy depths. I highly recommend it. For those on a budget, there is always the dollar theatre in Woodbridge, where the price is right, but you definitely get what you pay for: sticky floors, and musty smelling seats, and "interesting" fellow moviegoers. However, "The Blind Side", "Sherlock Holmes" and "The Princess and the Frog" are playing there, so find a buck, and head


Opening this weekend is "Repo Men" starring Jude Law and Forest Whitaker. Directed by Miguel Sapochnik, this film is a futuristic, sadistic look at organ purchasing. In a world where anything can be yours for a price, (even body parts) the company known as "The Union" can save your life, and if you fall behind on payments, can take it back as well. This movie feels like a winner.

For those who are looking for a date movie, Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler's "The Bounty Hunter" opens this weekend. It will be interesting to see how the couple interacts on the screen together, knowing that they were a couple off the screen as well. Brought to us by Andy Tennant, the man who brought us "Hitch" and "Ever After", Butler portrays a bounty hunter who is charged with bringing in his ex, and obvious problems arise. I am always hesitant when it comes to romcoms (Romantic Comedies), because I can't help but feel that every plot line has been done and redone, what could be left? It may have a chance, but this is one that I will wait and rent.
