			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>FILM OF THE WEEK:<br />
<em>The Limits of Control</em></b><br />
dir. Jim Jarmusch<br />
Starring: Isaach De Bankolé </p>
<p>All that really needs to be said is <em>new Jim Jarmusch</em>. But since that would be the short way out I&#8217;ll continue with that Jarmusch never misses. This film looks mysterious and fantastic - the buzz is positive. I see no way this can go too wrong.</p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YJQ5bLmYGm0&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p><b><em>X-Men Origins: Wolverine</em></b><br />
dir. Gavin Hood<br />
Starring: Hugh Jackman, Liev Schreiber, Ryan Reynolds</p>
<p>Despite the early leak of a rough cut of this film there has continued to be a lot of positive buzz about the fourth live action X-Men film. The other three were essentially about Wolverine, but this Wolverine focused film comes on the heels of Wolverine month at Marvel (how coincidental) and appears to be a success. This film will definitely be at the top of box office charts to be sure.</p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/LPmbGzQaOCs&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p><b><em>Battle for Terra</em></b><br />
dir. Aristomenis Tsirbas<br />
Starring: Evan Rachel Wood, Luke Wilson, Justin Long</p>
<p>Despite the absurd looks of this debut animation endeavor from Snoot Entertainment there has been nothing but positive buzz about this film. IMDB is predicting a big success here, I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised. Kid&#8217;s movies have done very well at the box office so far this year, and we&#8217;re waiting for something to displace the mediocre <em>Monsters vs. Aliens</em> as this year&#8217;s reigning kid&#8217;s champion.</p>

<p><b><em>Ghosts of Girlfriends Past</em></b><br />
dir. Mark Waters<br />
Starring: Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Emma Stone</p>
<p>Dear lord, make it end. It&#8217;s sure to be a disaster. </p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_NdeXvvK3uQ&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PICK OF THE WEEK:<br />
<b><em>The Informers</em></b> [limited]<br />
dir. Gregor Jordan<br />
Starring: Billy Bob Thornton, Kim Basinger, Mickey Rourke, Winona Ryder, Brad Renfro</p>
<p>There has been some nasty buzz on this one. From IMDB: &#8220;he rage for all things 1980s ends here, since Gregor Jordan&#8217;s adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis&#8217;s novel was all but disowned by the Sundance set after its premiere back in January. The idea of a nearly always nude Amber Heard should not conjure up notions of it&#8217;s-so-bad-it&#8217;s-Showgirls-good here. Seriously, just move away and move on from this one.&#8221; And Brett Easton Ellis (who wrote the novel) seems to be very displeased with the outcome, even though he wrote the script. Nonetheless, Ellis&#8217; writing is generally fantastic and - despite his relentless focus on the disillusionment of the 80s - we can&#8217;t help but have a little bit of excitement over the potential behind another Ellis driven film. </p>

<p><b><em>Mutant Chronicles</em></b> [limited]<br />
dir. Simon Hunter<br />
Starring: Thomas Jane, Ron Perlman, Devon Aoki</p>
<p>This film was initially panned hard at Comic-Con last year, but Magnolia passed along some more control to director Hunter to retool the film. This has series written all over it. It&#8217;s a sort of post-apocalyptic version of Pitch Black meets X-Men (kind of). Four corporations battle to save Earth from a mutant menace that was unleashed by an explosion at a prison - in the future.</p>

<p><b><em>Earth</em></b> [on 04/22]<br />
dir. Alastair Fothergill Mark Linfield<br />
Starring: Patrick Stewart</p>
<p><em>Earth</em> is a sort of <em>Blue Planet</em> revamp that follows four families of animals through their migration cycle. </p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/G06r7eKKjkI&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p><b><em>The Soloist</em></b><br />
dir. Joe Wright<br />
Starring: Robert Downey Jr., Jamie Foxx, Catherine Keener</p>
<p>An odd release date for a film that looked, initially, like it was surely Oscar bait. B=Maybe it&#8217;s part of a new plan to get in the mind of the Adacemy early on, or maybe Dreamworks has completely lost faith in the film.</p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/xjFYBoh8kYo&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p><b><em>Obsessed</em></b><br />
dir. Steve Shill<br />
Starring: Beyoncé Knowles, Idris Elba, Ali Larter</p>
<p><em>Obsessed</em> can be counted in for next week&#8217;s top ten biggest grossers, but there are real questions about it&#8217;s ability to stay there for more than one week. Lots of negative buzz already. We have little faith here.</p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/C1WiMWvbtjQ&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p><b><em>Fighting</em></b><br />
dir. Dito Montiel<br />
Starring: Channing Tatum, Terrence Howard, Luis Guzmán</p>
<p>A kid gets caught up in an underground world of fighting and finds Terrence Howard and Terrence Howard acts like Terrence Howard.</p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/v6ttyvbhbsQ&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p><b><em>Tyson</em></b> [limited]<br />
dir. James Toback<br />
Starring: Mike Tyson</p>
<p><em>Tyson</em>, a documentary about the life of legendary boxer Mike Tyson, was a smash at Sundance this year. This is the doc to see this year, so far. Don&#8217;t miss it (it&#8217;s pretty fantastic).</p>
<p><object width="425" height="344"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gJ9-rCyakME&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PICK OF THE WEEK:<br />
<b><em>State of Play</em></b><br />
dir. Kevin Macdonald<br />
Starring: Russell Crowe, Rachel McAdams, Ben Affleck, Helen Mirren</p>
<p>Only positive things seem to be coming about this political thriller. Macdonald is a rising director, and has been given a great cast for this film. Let&#8217;s hope it lives up to expectations.</p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8MKVYjB052E&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p><b><em>Crank: High Voltage</em></b><br />
dir. Mark Neveldine, Brian Taylor<br />
Starring: Jason Statham, Amy Smart, Clifton Collins Jr.</p>
<p>This sequel seems ill advised from the get-go. I seem to be one of the few who thought the first <em>Crank</em> was an abysmal train-wreck. The commentary to that film only confirm the notion that this debut directorial team phoned this one in. At the end of the first film Chev Chelios (Statham) seems to be dead - as you might have guessed he is not. Now instead of adrenaline to keep himself alive he needs regular shocks of electricity to his heart to seek his revenge. The directorial team definitely has a stylized visual palate, but we hope that the script has a little more style than their last one.</p>
<p><object width="425" height="344"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/t2koYVqwzT4&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>
<p><b><em>17 Again</em></b><br />
dir. Burr Steers<br />
Starring: Zac Efron, Matthew Perry, Leslie Mann</p>
<p>Hillary Duff isn&#8217;t the only child star that is struggling to be taken seriously by adults&#8230;Only this probably isn&#8217;t the film that&#8217;s going to do it for Efron</p>

<p><b><em>Every Little Step</em></b> [limited]<br />
dir. Adam Del Deo, James D. Stern </p>
<p>This documentary follows a series of actress auditioning to be in the latest Broadway revival of Chorus Line. Looks interesting despite the less than interesting subject matter.</p>

Stars: Michael Caine, Bill Milner</p>
<p>this drama focuses on a ten-year-old boy (Milner) who is growing up in a retirement home that his family owns and his relationship with a retired magician (Caine).
