This is not The Couch Potato Report!

Today’s New Releases
This is not this week’s edition of The Couch Potato Report. There is a SPECIAL EDITION of the CPR coming in a few days as a pre-cursor to Hockey Day In Canada.
For now, here’s an overview of what’s in stores this week:
RUNAWAY JURY is based on the book by John Grisham. John Cusack, Gene Hackman, Dustin Hoffman and Rachel Weisz star. The story is about a juror who’s offering to rig a jury, for a price. Why he’s doing it, and how, is quite interesting.
In DICKIE ROBERTS: FORMER CHILD STAR David Spade is a former child star who hires a family to try and recreate his lost childhood. The movie also features child stars from days of yore, including Screech and some of the Brady Kids. (David Spade, Mary McCormack, Scott Terra)
MAMBO ITALIANO- Two Italian emigrants come to terms with homosexual son. (Luke Kirby, Ginette Reno, Paul Sorvino)
MASKED & ANONYMOUS – A concert is being thrown to united a divided America. (Bob Dylan, John Goodman, Jessica Lange)
COMING NEXT WEEK
SPY KIDS 3-D: GAME OVER – This is the third (and reported final) installment in the very entertaining series.
MATCHSTICK MEN – Nicolas Cage and Sam Rockwell star in this picture about con men.
THE MISSING – Ron Howard followed up his Oscar winning turn in A BEAUTIFUL MIND with this forgettable pseudo western. In it a daughter and father team up to find a missing girl. (Tommy Lee Jones, Cate Blanchett, Simon Baker)
PIECES OF APRIL – A young woman tries to bring her family together for Thanksgiving. (Katie Holmes, Patricia Clarkson, Oliver Platt).
Enjoy the movies and come back here later this week for a look at what’s on The Couch (Potato Report).
