Out this week: Johnny Depp becomes entangled in a mistaken identity caper, aliens decide to invade earth, again, a CGI animated bear and his sidekick must save their home and a London school teacher becomes an infamous drug smuggler.
THE TOURIST
A sour attempt at a Hitchcock like Action-Romance-Thriller, Frank (Jonny Depp) a math teacher from Wisconsin, is travelling from Paris to Venice when he meets a mystery woman named Elise (Angelina Jolie), who has targeted him to be a patsy for her former lover, Alexander, a criminal who is wanted in 14 countries and is being pursued by Interpol. Interpol soon realizes their mistake however an English gangster, who has been chasing the same person, does not, and fully believes Frank is the person he is after, Despite the cat and mouse game, the leads (of course), fall for each other and must find the real Alexander and save both of their lives. My holidays seem very boring in comparison!
SKYLINE
Yet another sci-fi film that involves an alien invasion and the possible annihilation off the human race. I feel I have seen this film numerous times before…
YOGI BEAR
Yogi and Boo Boo get a little CGI makeover in this just for kiddies live-action flick where are hero bears (with the voices of Dan Aykroyd and Justin Timberlake) and Ranger Smith (Tom Cavanagh of ‘Ed’ fame), must band together to save their beloved Jellystone National Park from being sold and closing forever.
MR NICE
Based on his own autobiography, Ronald Howard Marks AKA ‘Mr. Nice’ (played by Rhys Ifans) is a London school teacher who becomes a notorious drug smuggler in the 70’s and 80’s after helping a friend smuggle hashish from Pakistan and realizing how much money is involved.
