“Nights in Rodanthe:” Adrienne Willis (Diane Lane), a woman with her life in chaos, retreats to the tiny coastal town of Rodanthe in North Carolina to tend to a friend’s inn for the weekend. Here she hopes to find the tranquility she so desperately needs to rethink the conflicts surrounding her — a wayward husband who has asked to come home, and a teenaged daughter who resents her every decision. Almost as soon as Adrienne gets to Rodanthe, a major storm is forecast and Dr. Paul Flanner (Richard Gere) arrives. The only guest at the inn, Flanner is not on a weekend escape but rather is there to face his own crisis of conscience. Now, with the storm closing in, the two turn to each other for comfort and, in one magical weekend, set in motion a life-changing romance that will resonate throughout the rest of their lives. (PG-13: for some sensuality)
“Eagle Eye:” This race-against-time thriller stars Shia LaBeouf, Michelle Monaghan, Rosario Dawson, Anthony Mackie and Billy Bob Thornton. Jerry Shaw (LaBeouf) and Rachel Holloman (Monaghan) are two strangers thrown together by a mysterious phone call from a woman they have never met. Threatening their lives and family, she pushes Jerry and Rachel into a series of increasingly dangerous situations — using the technology of everyday life to track and control their every move. As the situation escalates, these two ordinary people become the country’s most wanted fugitives, who must work together to discover what is really happening — and more importantly, why. (PG-13: intense sequences of action and violence, and for language)
“Igor:” This playfully irreverent comedy brings a new twist to the classic monster genre. It tells the story of a mad scientist’s hunchbacked lab assistant who has big dreams of becoming a scientist in his own right and winning the coveted first-place award at the annual Evil Science Fair. Voiced featured in this animated film are John Cusack, Molly Shannon, Jay Leno, Arsenio Hall, John Cleese and others. (PG: for some thematic elements, scary images, action and mild language)
“My Best Friend’s Girl:” Smart, beautiful and headstrong, Alexis is the girl of Dustin’s dreams. But after only five weeks of dating, the lovestruck Dustin is coming on so strong that Alexis is forced to slow things down — permanently. Devastated and desperate to get her back, Dustin turns to his best friend, Tank, the rebound specialist. A master at seducing, and offending, women, Tank gets hired by freshly dumped guys to take their ex-girlfriends out on the worst date of their lives — an experience so horrible it sends them running gratefully back to their beaus. (R: for strong language and sexual content throughout, including graphic dialogue and some nudity)
“Righteous Kill:” After 30 years as partners in the pressure cooker environment of the NYPD, highly decorated Detectives David Fisk and Thomas Cowan should be ready for retirement, but aren’t. Before they can hang up their badges, they are called in to investigate the murder of a notorious pimp, which appears to have ties to a case they solved years before. Like the original murder, the victim is a suspected criminal whose body is found accompanied by a four-line poem justifying the killing. When additional crimes take place, it becomes clear the detectives are looking for a serial killer, one who targets criminals that have fallen through the cracks of the judicial system. His mission is to do what the cops can’t do on their own — take the culprits off the streets for good. Starring are Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, 50 Cent and Donnie Wahlberg. (R: for pervasive language, some sexuality and brief drug use)
“The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor:” The “Mummy” franchise takes a spellbinding turn as the action shifts to Asia for this next chapter in the adventure series. Brendan Fraser returns as explorer Rick O’Connell to combat the resurrected Han Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic that races from the catacombs of ancient China high into the frigid Himalayas. Rick is joined by son Alex (newcomer Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and her brother, Jonathan (John Hannah). And this time, the O’Connells must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse that threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service. (PG-13: for adventure action and violence)
