Opening Weekend Movies - 4/20/07

Fracture - I saw the trailer for this, and was not all that impressed. Sure, it's Anthony Hopkins running circles around Ryan Gosling, but that's almost as exciting as the Special Olympics. That, and courtroom dramas are just a bunch of yawns to me. Who cares really.

Hot Fuzz - This, on the other hand, looks like a right fucking riot. I don't know how many times I've said this is from the makers of "Shaun of the Dead", but it is, and that alone should get your "sodding" (as they say over there in the UK) arse into theaters to go watch this. If you go and you don't laugh, then there's something really wrong with you. Like you might actually be the Anti-Christ. Or just lack any sense of humor whatsoever. In that case, stay at home this weekend and catch the Carlos Mencia show. That would probably make you laugh. You twat.

In the Land of Women - This is such a chick flick disguised as a coming of age teen-style story. Meg Ryan's in it, so that should tip you off as to what your getting yourself into as your girlfriend/wife drags you to go see this. And could this Adam Brody kid be more Zach Braff'ish? Stare at the camera while some hipster music plays in the background some more please. God, I hate everyone who was ever involved with "The OC".

Vacancy - This could have possibly been a fun direct to DVD release, but they're taking it to the big screen. Do Luke Wilson and Kate Beckinsale even have the star power to carry a movie on their own? And do people even care about snuff films anymore? That's so 1998. I'm not even waiting for DVD for this one. If it's on cable, sometime next year, I might DVR the bitch. Might. And only if it's playing on one of the HD movie channels.

In Limited Release Special for 4/20

Smiley Face - Anna Faris is stoned for an hour and a half-ish after eating some pot cupcakes. That's all you really need to know about this movie. Oh, and Adam Brody is in it wearing a ridiculous rastafarian dread wig. What a fag. Here's the trailer, which includes a scene where a dog talks to a fucked up person. Original? Maybe the first time it happened.
