Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid
Showtimes Trailers Photos
| Director: Dwight H. Little
Stars: Morris Chestnut KaDee Strickland Eugene Byrd ...See Full Cast | In the Bornean rainforest, scientists searching for the life-extending Blood Orchid flower run into a group of juiced-up anacondas, bent on suffocating all those who wade through their domain. | Since Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Red Orchid screams "Exploitation!" and doesn't have a lot to live down, particularly its heritage, it uses a series of mounting obstacles and a game, if green, cast to create a mini-surprise here at the tail end of the dog days of summer. ...more Message Board User Comments | Reviews

Without a Paddle
Showtimes Trailers Photos
| Director: Steven Brill
Stars: Matthew Lillard Seth Green Dax Shepard ...See Full CastStudio: Paramount Pictures | Stoked by the legend of lost treasure, three lifelong friends (Green, Lillard, and Shepard) set off on a canoe trip, unaware of the rapids and other dangers ahead. | Not the wildly raucous free-for-all that you'd hope it would be (or would be led to believe from the trailer), Without a Paddle is part comedy, part life lessons, and part opportunity to see three toned-but-not-very-muscular actors in their underwear. All three things separately are certainly very enjoyable/life-affirming/entertaining in their own right, but combine them and you have a lukewarm adventure that sets the bar low for its comedy goals and somehow manages to underdeliver even with such paltry standards. ...more

The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement
Showtimes Trailers Photos
| Director: Garry Marshall
Stars: Anne Hathaway Callum Blue Julie Andrews ...See Full CastStudio: Buena Vista International | Now settled in Genovia, Princess Mia (Hathaway) faces a new revelation: she must get married within 30 days or else she forfeits her crown. | Gracious, polite, beautiful, and poised, Anne Hathaway is every bit the princess she is meant to be in The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, a G-rated sequel she is far too old to be in. But like most royalty, Hathaway puts on a brave face, faces her duty, and does what must be done and most importantly, leads us to believe she is sincerely enjoying it. ...more

Exorcist: The Beginning
Showtimes Trailers Photos
| Director: Renny Harlin
Stars: Stellan Skarsgård Gabriel Mann Billy Crawford ...See Full CastStudio: Warner Bros. | Young Father Merrin (Skarsgård) encounters the demon Pazuzu for the first time while doing missionary work in post-WWII Africa. | Somebody obviously did their homework on Exorcist: The Beginning, as the movie is filled with a few nice grace notes (and not a few clunky ones) that recall details from the original film, but overall this turgid prequel plays more like Indiana Merrin and the Devil of Doom. ...more

Collateral

| Director: Michael Mann
Stars: Tom Cruise Jamie Foxx Jada Pinkett Smith Mark Ruffalo ...See Full CastStudio: DreamWorks Distribution LLC | L.A. cabbie Max (Foxx) finds himself the hostage and driver of Vincent (Cruise), a contract killer who has one night to off five key witnesses on a high-profile federal crime. | Let's get it out of the way first yes, Tom Cruise is pretty good in Collateral, but practically everyone else in the movie is better than him. This isn't Cruise's movie -- it's Jamie Foxx's movie. And then it's Mark Ruffalo's movie... ...more

Alien Vs. Predator
Showtimes Trailers Photos
| Director: Paul W.S. Anderson
Stars: Lance Henriksen Raoul Bova Ewen Bremner Sanaa Lathan ...See Full CastStudio: Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation | Heavily armed scientists, exploring pyramid ruins buried deep under Antarctic ice, quickly follow a trail of disturbing evidence to a shocking reality: five teenage predators in the middle of a millenary ritual -- hunting aliens in order to reach manhood. | Railing about the fact that Alien Vs. Predator isn't much of a movie is tantamount to complaining the pro wrestling isn't much of a sport. more... Message Board User Comments | Reviews

Yes, that's probably fair... ...more

The Bourne Supremacy
Showtimes Trailers Photos
| Director: Paul Greengrass
Stars: Matt Damon Franka Potente Joan Allen Brian Cox Julia Stiles ...See Full CastStudio: Universal Pictures | When a CIA operation to purchase classified Russian documents is blown by a rival agent--who then shows up in the sleepy seaside village where Bourne (Damon) and Marie (Potente) have been living under assumed names--the pair collapse their lives and head out. Bourne, who promised retaliation should anyone from his former life attempt contact, is forced to once again take up his life as a trained assassin to survive. | I thoroughly enjoyed The Bourne Supremacy, although I can safely say that about 90% of the time I had no idea what was going on. ...more

Suspect Zero

| Director: E. Elias Merhige
Stars: Aaron Eckhart Ben Kingsley Carrie-Anne Moss ...See Full CastStudio: Paramount Pictures | Investigating a deceased serial killer, FBI agent Thomas Mackelway (Aaron Eckhart) follows a trail of questions to a rogue former agent (Kingsley) who independently tracks killers, including the elusive Suspect Zero, a person responsible for hundreds of murders. | Given that it's pretty much just a standard serial killer movie with a few telepathic trappings thrown in here and there, Suspect Zero is a little better than you'd, well, suspect. ...more Message Board User Comments | Reviews
