Opening Friday June 4, 2010

Opening this week are movies about dogs, people, doctors, foreigners, science, religion, politics, and death.  Yup early summer crap that hopes to stick it out until 4th of July madness happens.  Enjoy!

Marmaduke


A Great Dane's life is "turned upside down" when his family relocates from Kansas to Los Angeles, CA.





Casey's Take:  Be sure to "Live Large" at the cinema this weekend, as "The Duke" goes "Off the Leash" to ruin your weekend. No one likes the comic, what makes anyone thinks this will go well?  Oh right, it's Hollywood.

Get Him to The Greek


Seth Rogen's smaller fatter friend, has 72 hours to get the rocker from Forgetting Sarah Marshall to the Greek  Arena in NYC from London to win "Da Band 5: More White People Than Ever"





Casey's Take:  The Apatow Crew returns to fine form in the most entertaining movie of the weekend.  To steal a quote:  "The 'Hair of the Dog' to last year's "Hangover".  Well I thought the Hangover sucked so let's try a better quote.  "The 'Early Morning Bong Hit' to last year's 'Hangover"  Russell Brand>Zach Galafinakis.

Living in Emergency


Set in war-torn Congo and post-conflict Liberia, LIVING IN EMERGENCY: STORIES OF DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS interweaves the stories of four volunteers as they struggle to provide emergency medical care under the most extreme conditions.





Casey's Take:  The feel good movie of the summer

Splice


An Experiment goes Horribly wrong when scientists use human DNA to create a hybrid creature.





Casey's Take:  If Gary Coleman lived long enough to reproduce with his wife their kid would look like Dren.


Too Soon?  Look at this couple

I rest my case . . . 

Raajneeti


Rivalry between two sets of cousins draws a man into the dark side of politics





Casey's Take:  Looks pretty interesting actually.  Dark side of politics?  You mean the intern killing, prostitute paying off, oil spill causing, senate seat selling, fake war-mongering, financial bailout having, sarah palin breathing,  side of politics?  Or are we referring to Sith Lords here?

The Killers

An assassin and his wife try to learn who is trying to kill them.

Casey's Take: I'm gonna guess that the Killer is "The Writers of Grey's Anatomy"
