OPENING PICKS
The Patriot
Straight off of his run as a chicken,
Mel Gibson has returned to the epic, historical period piece in "The Patriot."
This time Gibson is out of the 13th century Scotland of "Braveheart" and
in 18th century America as a Revolutionary War hero fighting the redcoats
for his family's freedom.
The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle
Realizing the genius of the Jay Ward cartoons
from the 60s and 70s and Hollywood's drought of originality, here comes
"The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle." Combining animation with
live action, the film stars Jason Alexander, Rene Russo, Robert DeNiro,
with cameos by Billy Crystal.
The Perfect Storm
Based on the true story of the fishing
ship the "Andrea Gail" caught in two colliding storms--the perfect storm--off
the North Atlantic, "The Perfect Storm" stars George Clooney, Mark
Wahlberg, Diane Lane, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio and John C. Reilly. |
