Love Is All You Need stars Pierce Brosnan and Trine Dyrholm in an adult romance that we saw on Monday and forgot about on Tuesday. It's an average romance pairing a widower (Brosnan) with a cancer stricken woman who probably wishes she were widowed -- her husband dumped her for a younger woman while she was in the middle of chemotherapy. The idea reads better than it plays. Rent

42, telling the Jackie Robinson story which kidlets should learn in American History classes is, well, a story you should know. Period. Cranky's movie review

Seen and enjoyed is The Sapphires, in which four sisters from Down Under team as a singing group that entertains American GI's in Vietnam. An alcoholic manager swaps out the plain Jane leader for a better looking sister and this "based on a true story"  makes a family drama all the more interesting. See it.

The Incredible Burt Wonderstone stars Steve Carrell and Steve Buscemi as past-their-prime Vegas magicians with Jim Carrey as the new star in town, stealing every scene he's in. Alan Arkin and Olivia Wilde get screen time and all of 'em put together don't serve up anything interesting to watch. Cranky's movie review

Oz the Great and Powerful, from Spider-Man director Sam Raimi and star James Franco, is colorful and has amazing 3D. Aside from keeping your littlest kidlets occupied for two hours, it isn't any kind of a film that you're going to look forward to watching over and over again on the DVD release -- which will come faster than you think.

The film is awful. You'll walk in thinking "how bad could it be?" and you'll walk out knowing I told you the truth. Those with little kidlets, who may like the pretty pictures, can download wallpapers

Admission stars Tina Fey and Paul Rudd. Does it say much when a publicist says she got more laughs out of our review than in the whole film? Said film is about college admissions and love. Said film is dull. Cranky's movie review

Mud stars Matthew McConaughey as an accused murderer on the run, hiding on an island in the middle of the Mississippi river. There he is found and befriended by two boys, each around ten years old. That's about it, folks. The film had major buzz behind it, coming out of the earlier film festivals and . . . well . . . you know what we've written about the ravers that come out of the festivals. That'd be the films are beyond boring. So is Mud. Pass it by.

Jack the Giant Slayer, in glorious 3D, is based on the fable that once was standard storytelling material for little kids has lots of killing with very little bloodshed -- meaning it is perfectly fine for the little ones sitting up front while the parental units enjoy the film from the back row.(3D/2D theaters and IMAX 3D) Cranky's movie review
