Movie Season

The winter movie season is right around the corner. It looks as if Hollywood learned their lesson this summer with the horrible movies that came out. The winter season looks more promising.

Jarhead - November 4th - Based on the book about a Marine in Desert Storm. It looks amazing and I will most likely see it on opening weekend. War Movie.

Aeon Flux - December 2nd - I was a big fan of the MTV show in the 90's, so I have high hopes for this one too. Charlize Theron plays Aeon in tight black vinal with kung-fu skills. Yeow! Sci-Fi Thriller.

Doom - The Rock will surely bring his acting A-game to this shoot'em up thriller. By A-game, I mean he'll out-act an ignatius rock. The directing of the movie is something new. The camera follows around the man with the gun like in 3-D games. Action Flick.

Everything Is Illuminated - Out Now - I'm not a fan of Elijah Wood, but his acting is above par. In this movie, he searches for the woman who saved his grandfather from Nazis. I think I'll wait for it to come to the library. Quarky Comedy ending in Drama.

Yours, Mine, & Ours - November 23rd - Dennis Quaid and Renne Rouso play opposites that get attracted, get married, and their 17 kids disagree on everything. A military dad and a free-thinking mom. It sounds like Darma and Greg had kids and went to the big-screen. The wife and I like watching crappy kids movies, so I'll most likely see this at the cheap theater. Family Comedy

Oliver Twist - September 30th - The quite eccentric Roman Polanski creates another to-be masterpiece. I enjoyed the book as a boy and will surely enjoy the movie now. It's upsetting that it is rated PG-13 as children younger than 13 could enjoy it as well with a more suitable rating. Comedic Drama.

There are quite a few more out this season, but those are the ones that caught my eye on iTunes.
