    Film Friday: ‘Due Date’ and ‘Megamind’

    by W. Andrew Powell November 5, 2010
    by W. Andrew Powell November 5, 2010

    New this week at a theatre near you: Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis star in the odd-couple comedy, Due Date; Will Ferrell plays the winningly bad bad-guy in the animated comedy, Megamind; and a look at the political thriller, Fair Game, starring Naomi Watts.

    DVD Tuesday: ‘Australia’ & ‘Milk’

    by W. Andrew Powell March 5, 2009
    by W. Andrew Powell March 5, 2009

    Arriving on store shelves this week, travel with Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman to Australia’s rugged Outback for an adventure-packed romance, or visit with Sean Penn in his Oscar-winning performance as the courageous Harvey Milk. Also out this week, but much less interesting, Samuel L. Jackson and Bernie Mac star in Soul Men, and Disney drops their latest ridiculous comedy, Beverly Hills Chihuahua.

    DVD Tuesday: ‘Into the Wild’, ‘I’m Not There’

    by W. Andrew Powell March 4, 2008
    by W. Andrew Powell March 4, 2008

    There are too many films where the word “inspired by a true story” seems all too forced, but this week Sean Penn‘s Into the Wild provides an all-too-real glimpse into the short but incredible life of Chris McCandless. For the film I’m Not There, Bob Dylan fans can get an intimate, and strange re-imagining of the singer’s life, through six different actors. Plus, 101 Dalmations arrives out of Disney’s vault, Things We Lost in the Fire explores life after a husband’s death, and a magic toy shop has a mind of its own in Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium.
