Andrew:
Hello readers! It's that time once again for Sarah and I
to chat about the new releases hitting our local theatre for your reading
enjoyment. Last week was a relatively weak crop with only Alex Cross and Paranormal
Activity 4 coming out wide (the latter of which we reviewed HERE). This
week, however, is a different story as we see four wide releases coming out
this last weekend in October.
We have the epic looking Cloud
Atlas, brought to us by Tom Twyker (Run Lola Run) and the
Wachowski siblings (The Matrix trilogy); a new Gerard Butler film about
surfboarding and based on a true story called Chasing Mavericks; a
sequel to 2006's video-game adaptation/horror film Silent Hill that no one
was asking for, called Silent Hill: Revelations 3D; and
last but not least a Halloween-themed comedy aimed at tweens called Fun
Size, which is the directorial debut of television producer/writer Josh
Schwartz.
So Sarah, a lot of films coming out this week. Which one
do you want to talk about first?
Sarah: Let's talk about the biggest
one, Cloud
Atlas. I am so confused about this one! It totally looks super
confusing but has a powerhouse cast that would make any director in Hollywood
jealous! I honestly don't know how I feel about this one. What do you think?
