Not much to report this week. I think we all know who is going to take this week's box office.
Batman Begins. It actually opened this past Wednesday, but this is it's first weekend. I had the opportunity of seeing it opening night, and it is fantastic. Everything from the director to the writer to the cast, it all works. Good action, high drama. Warner really hit this one out of the park. This is the best filmed incarnation of the Dark Knight.
The Perfect Man. Heather Locklear returns to the big screen with Hilary Duff and Chris Noth in this harmless looking comedy. It looks like it may be OK, but not one that I am terribly excited about. Locklear is giving up on men, when Duff creates a secret admirer. At least, that's what I think it is about.
Short Cut to Nirvana. This looks as if it could be interesting. It is a documentary about the carnival like spiritual gathering, Kumbh Mela, in Allahabad, India. Director Nick Day is accompanied by Swami Krishnanad and his crew as they introduce us to the variety of spiritual leaders that take part in the gathering. This one features a special visit from the Dalai Lama.
Mondovino. This is a documentary that takes us into the world of wine and shows how the old world is conflicting with the new world. I am not really one for wine, but who doesn't want to learn about it's origins and futures?
Until next week.
