What’s opening Friday, Feb. 6?
The first week of February 2009 brings four new films to the multiplex, and most of them are actually good prospects. Again, titles now link to the Rotten Tomatoes entries.
Coraline: A new stop-motion animated feature from Henry Selick, the director of The Nightmare Before Christmas. This one, about a girl who enters a strange parallel world. is based on a story by Neil Gaiman, author of Stardust and Zemeckis’ Beowulf. I’m especially hot to see this in 3D, for which it was specifically designed.
He’s Just Not That Into You: This supposedly atypical romantic comedy was long delayed and the reviews are iffy, but I can’t help but be curious about a movie with a cast including Jennifer Aniston, Drew Barrymore, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Connelly and Ginnifer Goodwin.
The Pink Panther 2: You know how I said most of the titles were good prospects? This is the exception. File this one under “They made a sequel because the undistinguished predecessor made a surprising amount of money.” Kind of like Cheaper by the Dozen 2.
Push: This sci-fi-ish thriller from the studio that brought us Twilight has not pulled down great reviews but I think it’s getting a bit underrated. My take posts Friday.
