This will be another big week at the movies, with six new releases. That won't leave any time for foreign films this week, especially as I'm starting rehearsals for a new show on Monday.
A Walk Among the Tombstones- I actually caught a Thursday night screening of this, so I can't "predict" my reaction. The review should be along in a few days.
The Maze Runner- Yet another Young Adult novel adapted for the big screen with franchise aspirations. I've heard some iffy things about it, so my expectations aren't that high.
This Is Where I Leave You- It looked okay in previews, but I have yet to see any enthusiastic reviews. I might still like it though, as I go against the critical consensus with some regularity.
Tusk- I only saw the trailer for this recently. It seems like a gross-out horror movie, but has been getting some good notices. And it stars Esteban Vihaio, so that's a plus.
The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them- This is a unique circumstance. Next month, two more movies will come out in this "series" with the subtitles "Him" and "Her". They will tell the story of a dissolving marriage from each point of view. This film (apparently put together at the studio's insistence) features parts of both films edited together. An interesting cinematic experiment, and one I hope pans out. I also hope the other two films are released in local theatres so I can see them as well.
My Old Lady- A European comedy. I've only seen the trailer once, and it didn't make a huge impression, but it could be a pleasant enough film.
