The only movie in wide release this weekend is Dark Shadows.
Based on the television show from the '60s, Dark Shadows is about a vampire named Barnabas Collins. Collins has been imprisoned and when he gets released he moves in with his dysfunctional descendents. His family helps protect him from the witch that cursed him in the first place. This movie stars Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer, Helena Bonham Carter, Eva Green, Chloe Moretz, Jonny Lee Miller, Jack Earle Haley and Christopher Lee.
The reviews for this movie have not been great, but I am guessing if you liked the TV show you will probably enjoy the movie. Plus, it is Johnny Depp, so how bad could it really be? :o)
Other movies in limited release are: Where Do We Go Now?, I Wish, Girl In Progress, God Bless America, Hick, Tonight You're Mine, The Road and A Bag Of Hammers.

"Let me know if 'real power' wants a magazine or something."
The two major movies that are being released this weekend are: The Avengers and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.
In The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, a group of British retirees go on a trip to India to stay in, what they believe is, a newly restored hotel. The hotel turns out to be not quite as luxurious as the advertisement leads them to believe, but eventually its charm begins to grow on them. This movie stars Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Tom Wilkinson, Bill Nighy, Penelope Wilton, Celia Imrie, Ronald Pickup and Dev Patel.
The Avengers is a team of super humans who have been brought together by the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division (S.H.I.E.L.D) Director Nick Fury to defend the Earth from Loki and his army. This teams consists of Tony Stark aka Iron Man, Steve Rogers aka Captain America, Thor, Bruce Banner aka The Hulk, Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow and Clint Barton aka Hawkeye. This movie stars Samuel L. Jackson, Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Tom Hiddleston, Clark Gregg, Cobie Smulders, Stellan Skarsgard, Gwyneth Paltrow and the voice of Paul Bettany.
I am very interested in seeing both of these movies. Marigold Hotel has a fantastic cast and looks really funny, and both have been getting great reviews. I am trying not to let my expectations for The Avengers get too high, but I am very excited about it and will definitely go this weekend.
Also in limited release is: LOL, First Position, The Perfect Family, Last Call at the Oasis, A Little Bit of Heaven, Mother's Day and Meeting Evil.

The big movies that are out in theaters this weekend are: Lockout, The Three Stooges and The Cabin in the Woods.
The Cabin in the Woods is about five friends who go to a cabin in the middle of the woods and very bad things begin to happen to them.

It was written by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard, directed by Goddard and stars Chris Hemsworth, Jesse Williams, Fran Kranz, Anna Hutchison, Kristen Connolly, Bradley Whitford, Brian White, Amy Acker, Tom Lenk and Richard Jenkins.

"A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets."
The movies that are being released this weekend are American Reunion and the re-release of Titanic in 3D.
American Reunion brings us the American Pie characters from over ten years ago back to East Great Falls, Michigan for their high school reunion. Jim, Oz, Kevin, Finch and the rest of their friends reunite and reconnect over one long weekend. The returning cast includes: Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan, Chris Klein, Tara Reid, Thomas Nichols, Seann William Scott, Mena Suvari, Eddie Kaye Thomas, John Cho, Natasha Lyonne, Shannon Elizabeth, Eugene Levy and Jennifer Coolidge as Stifler's Mom.
If you do not know what Titanic is about, then I just really do not know what to say.
I will tell you that I saw this movie in high school when it first came out with three of my friends. We held hands the entire movie and bawled our eyes out, even after the movie was over. Standing in line for the bathroom still crying one woman said to us, "It's *just* a movie!" Luckily, thanks to our one male friend that joined us, we had plenty of tissues which he continuously distributed to us throughout the film. Considering all those memories, it is safe to say that I will not be seeing this movie again in theaters, if only to save myself the embarrassment of crying that hard again in public :o)
In limited release this weekend is: Take Me Home, ATM, Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope, We The Party, Keyhole, The Hunter, We Have A Pope and Damsels in Distress.

"They're not wrinkles, they're just crinkles."
The big movies opening in theaters this weekend are: Wrath of the Titans, Mirror Mirror, and Bully. Bully is actually only opening in New York City and Los Angeles this weekend, but I feel that it is a movie that you should know about.
Bully is a documentary about America's bullying crisis. It follows five children and their families throughout the course of one school year. The stories include two families who have lost their children to suicide and a mother whose daughter has been incarcerated for bringing a gun on the school bus. The cameras go into these families' homes, into the school classrooms, cafeterias and even the principles' offices.

"May the odds be ever in your favor!"
The only movie with a wide release this weekend is The Hunger Games.
Based on the first book from the trilogy by Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games is set in the future and every year the Capitol selects one boy and one girl from each of the twelve districts to compete in a battle to the death on live television. Katniss Everdeen, this year's female tribute from District 12, played by Jennifer Lawrence, volunteers to take the place of her younger sister in the games. Along with Lawrence, the cast also includes Liam Hemsworth, Josh Hutcherson, Stanley Tucci, Elizabeth Banks, Wes Bentley, Woody Harrelson, Paula Malcomson, Toby Jones, Lenny Kravitz, Leven Rambin, and Donald Sutherland as President Snow.
It has been getting great reviews and I have been very excited for this movie to come out however, I have no plans to see it tonight at midnight. I might even wait until next week just to avoid the opening weekend crowds. I learned my lesson once with the first Twilight film and was surrounded by annoying teenage girls screaming every time Robert Pattinson came on the screen. If you see it before me, I hope you will let me know what you think!
Also in limited release this weekend is: The Raid: Redemption, The Deep Blue Sea, Brake, October Baby, Musical Chairs and The Trouble with Bliss.

"You start wondering, 'is it in my genes?'"
The only movie in wide release this weeked is The Devil Inside.
Taking place in Italy, The Devil Inside is about a girl named Isabella who tries to figure out the truth of what happened to her mother twenty years ago. Her mother has been locked in an asylum because she confessed to killing three people during an exorcism being performed on her. Isabella's mission is to discover whether or not her mother is mentally ill or demonically possessed. The cast does not contain any names that I recognize but includes Fernanda Andrade, Suzan Crowley, Simon Quarterman, Evan Helmuth and Brian Johnson.
Absolutely nothing about this movie appeals to me and I have not seen any reviews yet, but if you like scary movies then this is probably right up your alley. While you are busy being scared, I will be trying to catch up on movies already in theaters. I still have not seen the new Sherlock Holmes, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo or The Artist.
In limited release this weekend is: Roadie, Beneath the Darkness, Once Upon a Time in Anatolia and Norwegian Wood.
I hope that everyone is having a Happy New Year!
