New Movie Friday: Straw Dogs, Drive, I Don’t Know How She Does It
New in theaters this weekend: Ryan Gosling as a fast driver, Sarah Jessica Parker as a harried mom, and James Marsden as a guy pushed to the edge.

New in Theaters – X-Men: First Class, Love Wedding Marriage
There aren’t a ton of new movies in theaters today, which I’m sure is making director Matthew Vaughn and all the ‘X-Men’ stars really happy. That’s one of the big summer blockbusters, so I bet it’ll do very well at the box office this weekend. The only real competition is a Dermot Mulroney-directed IFC film…

New Movie Friday: Rio! Scream 4! The Conspirator!
‘Rio’ looks like a lot of fun, especially since I have a bit of a crush on George Lopez, who voices one of the birds. Also in theaters today is ‘Scream 4’ (Hayden Panettiere’s been making the late-night talk show rounds) and ‘The Conspirator,’ which I haven’t heard much about. Let’s take a look… ‘Rio’…

New Movie Friday: Hop! Insidious! Source Code!
An adorable bunny. Some evil spirits. A soldier who wakes up in someone else’s body. That’s what we’ve got in theaters this weekend. Let’s take a closer look… Source Code. Jake Gyllenhaal stars in this action thriller about a soldier who wakes up in another guy’s body and discovers he’s part of a mission to…

New Movie Friday: Never Say Never, Gnomeo & Juliet, Just Go With It, The Eagle
Once in a while, an Adam Sandler movie comes along that I actually like. I’m hoping ‘Just Go With It’ falls into that category. I continue to like Jennifer Aniston, even though her movies have been so-so lately. ‘The Switch,’ ‘The Bounty Hunter,’ and ‘Love Happens’ all blend together in my memory. Also in theaters:…

New Movie Friday: Narnia! The Tourist! The Fighter! Watch the Trailers
I haven’t been this excited about New Movie Friday in weeks! There really hasn’t been a plethora of new movies in the past couple weeks, but that all changes today. Here’s the rundown: ‘The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader’ – Lucy and Edmund Pevensie return to Narnia with their cousin Eustace…

New Movie Friday: Megamind! Due Date! 127 Hours!
Finally! Some movies I actually want to see are in theaters this weekend! After a dry spell populated by horror movies and Halloween fare, we’re starting to get some fun comedies, great family movies, and thoughtful dramas. Here’s the rundown on what’s new in theaters today: Megamind. With a voice cast that includes Brad Pitt,…

New Movie Friday: Saw 3D, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest
Man, there is just NOTHING I want to see today – or that’s appropriate for a family movie review (click here to syndicate my family movie column in your publication). There ARE a few movies in limited release I’d love to see, but they haven’t yet arrived here in northern Michigan. So if you’re one…

New Movie Friday! Hereafter, Paranormal Activity 2, The Company Men
Some creepy movies in theaters today, which makes sense because we’re getting closer to Halloween. I have to say, though, I didn’t think the first ‘Paranormal Activity’ movie was all that scary. My son and I watched it on DVD, and we laughed all the way through it, and burst into laughter at the end…

New Movie Friday! Secretariat, Life As We Know It, My Soul To Take – Watch the Trailers
I’ve heard nothing but bad things about ‘Life As We Know It,’ but of course, I’ll check it out and report back to you, dear readers. Don’t get your hopes up, though. Also new in theaters today is a horse movie (Sea Biscuit? No, Secretariat) and a scary thriller about a dead serial killer. Here’s…
