Flypaper

Multiple gangs attempt to rob the same bank at the same time.

It was like watching Clue only in a bank.

** I guess you could rent it. 


NR

The Flaw

A documentary on the economic break down of the late 2000's in the United States of America.

A watered down version of Inside Job.  This was made to keep the attention of teenagers, with it's cartoons and charts. However it hesitates to place blame on any one in particular.  It was entertaining.

** 1/2 Rentable


NR

Excuse Me

A couple threatens to end their relationship on what may or may not have been said in the heat of passion.

Funny.

***


NR

The Details

A young couple in a strained marriage are pushed to the edge by raccoons.

This was soooooo disappointing. Not funny.  Long, painful, and predictable.

* Not-A-Chance


NR

Circumstance

Two young women desperately trying to find themselves are trapped by their country and culture.

One of my favorites this year!

*** 1/2 Must See


NR

The Cinema Hold Up

A small group of Mexican teenagers looking for a brighter future plot to rob a movie theatre.

Slowly paced and deliberate but really good performances.

** 1/2


NR

Cedar Rapids

A naive and hopeful insurance salesman represents his firm at the annual Two Diamonds conference in Cedar Rapids.

Funny but a tad crude.  Memorable dialogue and engaging storyline.

***


Rated R (for language and sexual content)

Being Elmo

A documentary following the life of the man behind Elmo.

Surprisingly entertaining as I can't stand Elmo.

***


NR

Another Happy Day

A dysfunctional family comes together for a wedding and makes sloppy attempts to heal the years of hurt.

Very entertaining, yet horrifically frustrating to watch.

NR

Tsk Tsk Tsk....
