This week's newest releases are all over the map, from a literary-minded chick flick to a grim biographical western to a high concept romantic comedy to a real life adventure tale to a post-apocalyptic thriller to one for the tweeners:- The Jane Austen Book Club: Sure, the title is guaranteed to scare away every heterosexual male in existence, but take a look at the cast: Hugh Dancy, Maria Bello, Emily Blunt, Marc Blucas, Jimmy Smits, Amy Brenneman, Kevin Zegers and Kathy Baker. (Is it just me, or do the guys out-hot the gals?)
- The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford: Brad Pitt is the legendary outlaw, Casey Affleck the young recruit who betrays him. (Is it just me, or do they pretty much give away the whole movie with that title?)
- Good Luck Chuck: Is it just me, or does this movie seem like, if it were made two years ago, it would have starred Vince Vaughn and Cameron Diaz instead of Dane Cook and Jessica Alba?
- Into the Wild: Sean Penn directs this based-on-a-true story drama about a recently graduated college student (Emile Hirsch) who gives up his conventional life to hitchhike to Alaska. This one does star Vince Vaughn, as well as Catherine Keener, William Hurt, Marcia Gay Harden, Jena Malone and Hal Holbrook.
- Resident Evil: Extinction: Milla Jovovich returns for the third go-round in this video game-to-movie series.
- Sydney White: We loved her as Penny Pingleton, so Amanda Bynes as a modern day Snow White (complete with seven nerds instead of dwarfs) sounds like harmless fun. Or is it just me?
