Opening This Week: September 14th-18th (Cloudy With a Chance of Informant Love)

Here's some of the latest in theaters this week:
Jennifer's Body
'Jennifer's Body': Despite the fact that this film was written by academy award-winning story writer Diablo Codie ('Juno'), Megan Fox stars in what critics are claiming to be a film that tries but miserably fails to be either funny or scary.

The Informant!
'The Informant!': Matt Damon plays a conspicuous inside agent within a corporate operation that charismatically satirizes degrees of authority. From the people that developed some of the 'Oceans 11' films, 'The Informant!' is garnering generally positive reviews from critics this weekend.

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs
'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs': An animated feature that follows the life and times of a comedic scientist (voiced by Bill Hader, I believe) that develops a way to change the climate so it could precipitate miscellaneous foods. Is this a worthy animated addition to this year's growing list of cartoon sagas? Judge this one for yourself.
Love Happens
'Love Happens'-Another romantic comedy...this time starring Aaron Eckhart and Jennifer Aniston. I think by this time, so far ahead in the history of the genre of romantic comedies, we can assume that love does indeed happen. Is the clarification really necessary?

  1. Love Happens has one thing different. It has Harvey Dent!

    Also, anyone else wondering who came up with the great idea of Megan Fox EATING PEOPLE WHILE NUDE?!
    Just saying.
