Weekend Update: 3rd Week of March

This week we get no more inspiring or entertaining films than last week. Gerard Butler and Jennifer Aniston remind us why we no longer trust them anymore with The Bounty Hunter, and Forrest Whitaker and Jude Law remind us why we don't trust them as much as we used to with Repo Men. Bounty looks like another predictable romantic comedy with a twist, and I hope that there will come a time when actors stop to ask themselves how awful the scripts they're signing on to really are. As for Repo Men, it's just Repo Man: The Genetic Opera without awful music, and without the post-apocalyptic element. So of course it sucks. The best advice I can give this week is to catch Alice in Wonderland in 3D before How to Train Your Dragon takes most of its screens next week. Or if you are looking for something a little more interesting and dramatic you can seek out The Ghost Writer, directed by Roman Polanski which just expanded to over 800 screens.
