Eat Pray Love

You ever wonder what happened to the girl that jumped from mattress to mattress with different guys? Well, she eventually takes a break from mattress surfing to learn the lessons she should have learned when she was in her late teens; now, we can watch it all play out on the big screen.

Note though, a large portion of this film appears to be a huge advertisement for the country of Italy. (I couldn’t tell if I was watching a movie or the  travel channel).

Recommendation: Eat Pray Love is not worth watching in the theater, but it is worth watching it at home. So, take it home as your 2nd DVD pick.

Starring: Julia Roberts, James Franco, Javier Bardem, Richard Jenkins, Billy Crudup

Piranha

Warning!!! Do not go into the theater expecting to see a film with a solid plot. Go to the theater to have fun. Go to see gore. Go to see teens getting their limbs gnawed off by prehistoric piranha!

Recommendation: Take a batch of best mates to see this silly film in the theater. If you cannot make it to the theater, take it home as your 2nd DVD pick.

Starring: Angry, prehistoric fish and their victims.

Takers

Nice! The movie Takers began a little clunky, but it improved as it progressed. The first part of the film, it seemed, was dedicated to delivering on the promise of featuring T.I.

Some films trick patrons into theaters by showing big name artists in its movie trailers, but the artists are given small parts in the actual film. That was not the case with Takers. (There was no bait-and-switch.) T.I. was prominently featured in this film.  There was LOTS of action, but the death scenes were not glorified.  That being said...

Recommendation: Go see Takers in the theater today. If not, TAKE it home as your 2nd DVD pick.

Starring: Idris Elba, Paul Walker, Michael Ealy, Tip "T.I." Harris, Chris Brown, Hayden Christensen, Matt Dillon,
