In Tyler Perry's latest release, America's favorite foul-mouthed, gun-totin' matriarch finds herself in the slammer following a high speed chase. Opposite the troublesome Madea stars Derek Luke as Joshua Hardaway, a married DA who's confronted with tough choices when assigned to prosecute an incarcerated young lady under Madea's protection.

Nick (Eric Christian Olsen) and Shawn (Nicholas D'Agosto) are two popular high school football stars. Instead of heading off to football camp, they decide a cheerleading camp makes more sense. They join their school's notoriously deficient cheerleading team, garner spots, and head off to cheerleading camp, which turns out to be the headquarters for some of America's friskiest ladies.

Tommy Lee Jones just loves playing the sheriff. In Bertrand Tavernier's adaptation of the James Lee Burke novel "In the Electric Mist with Confederate Dead," he stars as a contemplative, alcoholic, and violent lawman who's investigating several brutal murders in Louisiana. Things get weirder when his former classmate, played by John Goodman, comes back to town to make a movie.

FEATURED PREVIEW
Opening Mar 6, 2009
Directed By Zack Snyder
Alan Moore's Watchmen is widely regarded as the best graphic novel ever written. On March 6th, we'll see if Director Zach Snyder can repeat the great things he did with 300. Looks like he will because the buzz and source material for this one are exponentially greater. It may not capture the cultural zeitgeist the way the graphic novel did, but if it's even half as good, it will hit big enough to make a dent in the genre.

Michael Bay returns to rebooting another slasher flick. Although I enjoyed what he did with Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I think what he did here with Friday the 13th was mediocre at best.

This was cuter than expected. Helps to see it with Enrique, who claims he has been all of the women in this movie. You should take him with you when you see it, too.

This movie hunted me down, found me, and then tried to kill me.

Cutesy, light, idealistic, unrealistic.
