New Movie Releases-May 18, 2012

                            New Movie of the Week: "What to Expect When You're Expecting"
Starring Cameron Diaz, Anna Kendrick, Jennifer Lopez, Brooklyn Decker, Elizabeth Banks, Chris Rock,Chace Crawford, Matthew Morrison
I admit, this was definitely not the obvious choice for movie of the week from the three wide releases that are coming out. But come on-Cameron Diaz? Jennifer Lopez? Elizabeth Banks? Not to mention Chris Rock as the leader of a group of dads who meet regularly in the park, treating fatherhood like it's some kind of funny, "Hangover"-style brotherhood? If you have seen the trailer, you know this is going to be funny. Not even that cheesy, ensemble-comedy, "Valentine's Day" funny-we're talking a well written, well casted comedy.You can see the trailer here:


Other releases this week:

Battleship-Strangely based on the board game "Battleship", this film follows a fleet of naval ships taking on a band of aliens who want to use Earth's resources to ensure their own survival. Starring Liam Neeson and Rihanna, this should be, at the very least, interesting to see.

The Dictator (released 5/16)-Sacha Baron Cohen is back as his new character, the Dictator. He travels to America, he travels back to his North African Country-honestly, I'm not sure exactly what the plot of this movie is, other than Sacha Baron Cohen's Dictator working hard to fill us with laughs like he did in Borat. Starring Anna Faris and Ben Kingsley as well, this should be an enjoyable time, and a perfect date movie-gross out Sacha Baron Cohen comedy for the guys, Anna Faris as a hippie named Zoey who finds the Dictator and takes him under her wing for the girls.
