Director: Louis Leterrier Stars: Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes (Full Cast) Studio: Warner Bros. Pictures The Plot: In a loose adaptation from Greek mythology, Perseus (Worthington) who was born a god but raised as a man, sets off on an epic mission to combat Hades (Fiennes) before he can seize power from Zeus (Neeson) and unleash hell on earth.
THE BUZZ: 3D is cool, though PG-13 is a bummer for this of us who like our mythology dark and heady (though this is from the same studio that brought us the similarly rated Dark Knight). This remake has been around for a while -- the better part of the decade -- with Stephen Norrington once aboard to direct (eek). Most people know that this project jumped off the block faster than the formerly troubled, Tarsem Singh-helmed Dawn of War (which begins filming in early April), but did you know that director Louis Leterrier went on record to say the original Titans inspired his Hulk remake? Leterrier next has his sights on Y: The Last Man. Message Boards: Just Saw a Screening - 3D Actually Not Too Shabby! | If I wanted to see a epic battle between gods and men...

Director: Julie Anne Robinson Stars: Miley Cyrus, Liam Hemsworth (Full Cast) Studio: Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures The Plot: A drama centered on a rebellious young woman (Cyrus) who is sent to spend the summer with her estranged father, who abandoned his family in the past.
THE BUZZ: TV director Julie Anne Robinson, who has worked on awesome shows from "Pushing Daisies" to "Weeds," makes her feature debut as Miley Cyrus her first non-Hannah appearance since Big Fish. Taking a quick glance at the storyline, the first original screenplay written by Notebook novelist Nicholas Sparks, it's clear this is a custom-fit tale for Ms. Cyrus and her audience, who are getting ready to graduate from standard Disney fare. Let's hope this one embraces the rebellious spirit and channels it effectively for all involved. We like Miley, and we hope in real life she pushes out on her own. Pull a My Sister's Keeper and emancipate yourself, kid! Message Boards: The movie | So dumb. Some people are really starting to annoy me.

Director: Tyler Perry Stars: Janet Jackson, Tyler Perry, Jill Scott (Full Cast) Studio: Lionsgate The Plot: Four couples reunite for their annual vacation in order to socialize and to spend time analyzing their marriages. Their intimate week in the Bahamas is disrupted by the arrival of an ex-husband determined to win back his recently remarried wife.
THE BUZZ: The first therapeutic vacation resulted in one of Tyler Perry's biggest non-Madea movies, so look for bigger, more melodramatic story arcs in part two which, coupled with Jackson-family mania, could attract movie-goers who have yet to have their first TP experience.

Director: Peter Chan Wai Man Yip Stars: Jet Li, Andy Lau, Takeshi Kaneshiro (Full Cast) Studio: Magnet Releasing The Plot: During China's Taiping Rebellion of the 1860s, General Pang (Jet Li) forms a blood-brother alliance with two bandit leaders (Andy Lau and Takeshi Kaneshiro) during a brutal civil war. Though their bond is true on the battlefield, political and romantic deceit create a faultline underneath them.
THE BUZZ: Nice timing here, as John Woo's Red Cliff is getting major DVD love in the news. Co-directors Raymond Yip and Peter Chan's epic was a mega hit in China and beyond, and we hear you should be prepared for a seamless mix of two seemingly hard-to-blend elements: grisly action sequences and soap opera romanticism.

Director: Jake Goldberger Stars: Thomas Haden Church, Elisabeth Shue, Melissa Leo (Full Cast) Studio: Image Entertainment The Plot: After a 25-year absence, high-school janitor Don McKay (Church) returns to his hometown to see his first love, Sonny (Shue), who sent him a letter indicate she's dying. But this homecoming brings McKay more than he bargained for.
THE BUZZ: Word-of-mouth is strong for writer-director Jake Goldberger's first feature, which was acquired by Image Entertainment after the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival. (Read about Goldberger's planned follow-up projects here.) Wearing its Billy Wilder references on its blue-collar sleeves, McKay could be contemporary camp -- much like Roman Polanski's The Ghost Writer. I hope that means Melissa Leo's performance here is even more delicious than Kim Cattrall's under-appreciated turn in TGW. Message Boards: Filming Locations | Where can I watch the trailer?

Director: Dean DeBlois Chris Sanders Stars: Jay Baruchel, Gerard Butler, Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Full Cast) Studio: Paramount Pictures The Plot: Young Viking Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third (voice of Jay Baruchel) is sent to the Isle of Berk in the North Sea, where he is to subdue a dragon as a rite of passage. User Rating:
THE BUZZ: It's so worth celebrating the long-awaited return of Lilo & Stitch co-directors Dean DeBlois & Chris Sanders to the animated world (though DeBlois did make Heima, a stellar documentary on the band Sigur Ros). DreamWorks Animation has been on a roll since Kung Fu Panda, and the fan reaction to Dragon's teaser art (located above) was strong, so I think we can expect a full-on marketing blitz, awkward promotional tie-ins included. For example: "Train your thirst at 7-11." Message Boards: For people who have already seen this... | I must be lucky. Showtimes | Trailers | Photos | Message Boards | User Comments | Reviews | |||||

Director: Tim Burton Stars: Mia Wasikowska, Johnny Depp (Full Cast) Studio: Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures The Plot: 19-year-old Alice (Wasikowska) returns to the magical world from her childhood adventure, where she reunites with her old friends and learns of her true destiny: to end the Red Queen's reign of terror. User Rating:
THE BUZZ: I am one of those people who feels that Tim Burton's artistic vision is directly in line with Lewis Carroll's novels, and he is one of few filmmakers who can get away with asserting that a likable movie adaptation has never been made of this story. It is, of course, interesting to hear this from the man who made Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ...

Director: Steve Pink Stars: John Cusack, Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson (Full Cast) Studio: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) The Plot: Four guy friends, all of them bored with their adult lives, travel back to their respective 80s heydays thanks to a time-bending hot tub. User Rating:
THE BUZZ: Hot Tub's redband trailer is just about the most limp stab at R-rated comedy in recent memory, and the current attempts to capture the cheese-innoncence-sleaze of '80s sex comedies, a la Hardbodies, have all come up short. Though I'm still wondering why the reunion of Jon Cusack and Steve Pink is looking so lowbrow? These dudes worked together on Grosse Pointe Blank and High Fidelity, for Rob Gordon's sake!

Director: Andy Tennant Stars: Jennifer Aniston, Gerard Butler (Full Cast) Studio: Columbia Pictures The Plot: A bounty hunter (Butler) learns that his next target is his ex-wife (Aniston), a reporter working on a murder cover-up. Soon after their reunion, the always-at-odds duo find themselves on a run-for-their-lives adventure with a bunch of New Jersey heavies in pursuit. User Rating:
THE BUZZ: The first trailer for this "high-concept comedy" hit the Internet with a thud. Sadly, The Bounty Hunter looks to be kind of mainstream fare that could have been made by either Jennifer Aniston or Gerard Butler at the beginning of their respective careers -- but now? It feels like safe and mid-range entertainment. I can understand it if Gerard Butler and his handlers are trying to find a balance between action flicks and romantic comedies, but all they really need to do is re-watch The Ugly Truth to realize the genre does not suit him. I'm surprised Butler isn't holding a gun over his anatomy in the poster. Speaking of the poster, where is Jennifer Aniston's left hip?

Director: Thor Freudenthal Stars: Zachary Gordon, Robert Capron, Rachael Harris (Full Cast) Studio: Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation The Plot: Greg Heffley (Gordon) uses the journal his mother forces him to keep to plot his middle-school survival. User Rating: THE BUZZ: Writer Jeff Kinney created Wimpy as a web-comic in 2004, and the pop-culture phenomenon quickly grew into a daily online strip and, ultimately, a series of novels that rival Twilight in popularity. We'll see how it translates as the first movie in a potential franchise, though awareness of the movie is almost nil.

Director: Jim Field Smith Stars: Jay Baruchel, Alice Eve (Full Cast) Studio: Paramount Pictures The Plot: A guy (Baruchel) lets his insecurities pick away at his fledgling relationship with the perfect gal (Eve). User Rating:
THE BUZZ: Someone please help me understand why DreamWorks/Paramount execs think that a romantic comedy with no known stars, a green director, and a screenplay from the guys behind Sex Drive is a money-making idea. (Note: We'd love to be surprised about this movie's quality and proved wrong about its chances for success.)

Director: Paul Greengrass Stars: Matt Damon, Jason Isaacs, Greg Kinnear (Full Cast) Studio: Universal Pictures The Plot: Discovering covert and faulty intelligence causes a U.S. Army officer (Damon) to go rogue as he hunts for Weapons on Mass Destruction in an unstable region. User Rating:
THE BUZZ: Entertainment writers are worked up about (1) Universal's box-office slump and (2) the studio's decision to move Green Zone out of the 2009 Oscar zone. To me, this is a sign that the movie actually might be entertaining and not some bore, a la most every other recent Iraq War picture aside from the most recent Best Picture winner. Meanwhile, we're wondering if Jason Bourne's fans will accept Matt Damon as a solider, especially since the proposed fourth Bourne adventure isn't a signed deal at this stage.

Director: Martin Scorsese Stars: Leonardo DiCaprio, Emily Mortimer, Mark Ruffalo (Full Cast) Studio: Paramount Pictures The Plot: When a psychotic killer (Mortimer) disappears from a mental institution on Shutter Island, a pair of U.S. Marshals (Ruffalo and DiCaprio) race against the clock in order to track her down. User Rating:
THE BUZZ: Strike through all those notions of awards-season glamor for this reunion of Marty and Leo, since reports of marketing-budget shortfalls and promotional challenges (aka DiCaprio's availability) shuttled the movie into the middle of winter. Don't think it'll hurt the thriller's box-office, though, since it's been testing through the roof. Nikki Finke digs out the scoop.

Director: Miguel Sapochnik Stars: Jude Law, Forest Whitaker, Alice Braga (Full Cast) Studio: Universal Pictures The Plot: Set in a world where artificial organs are readily available for purchase, a man (Law) who makes his living repossessing organs from those who fail to make their payments first finds himself outfitted with a new heart, then forced to go on the run when he falls on hard financial times. User Rating:
THE BUZZ: Leonardo DiCaprio was once set to star alongside Jude Law in this adaptation of Matchstick Men writer Eric Garcia's novel (Garcia wrote the screenplay with "House M.D." scribe Garrett Lerner). We love that Universal, who put out Cirque du Freak at the end of 2009, is taking chances with their projects, even if Repo! A Genetic Opera bombed (despite its cult status) and Repo Man's Alex Cox is having a title fight with the studio. Message Boards: Different ending in book? | No employee discount?

Director: Rick Famuyiwa Stars: America Ferrera, Forest Whitaker, Carlos Mencia (Full Cast) Studio: Fox Searchlight Pictures The Plot: The weeks leading up to a young couple's wedding is comic and stressful, especially as their respective fathers (Whitaker and Mencia) try to lay to rest their long-standing feud. User Rating:
THE BUZZ: Not to oversimplify things here, but it's surprising how long it has taken other studios (aside from Lionsgate) to reach the audience that Tyler Perry entertains once or twice a year. The relatable premise, combined with a cast of movie and TV stars and the savvy marketing of Fox Searchlight could yield a small-scale hit.
