If you're a teen looking for scantily clad supermodel types doing R-rated things in a PG-13 movie, you've come to the right “supernatural” flick. Otherwise, you’re gonna wanna head to The Illusionist.

Whereas Will Ferrell & Co.’s Anchorman only seems to click on way-past-your-bedtime HBO, Talladega Nights clicks on most cylinders, and the star shows why he’s mainstream comedy’s best hope to bring in the money and the funny.

The fantastical Lady in the Water—M. Night Shyamalan’s most wildly imaginative yet obscure work to date—will probably disappoint those looking for that certain Shyamalan je n’sais quoi. Still, you can’t fault the guy for being a true original.

Fart jokes? Check. Bowel jokes? You betcha. Toilet paper jokes? Covered. Fart noises? The best. Cockroaches/rats in kitchens? Sure, throw ‘em in. Actual humor? Uh…what’s that again?

Big Momma's House 2 is precisely what you'd expect from a sequel whose title no longer has any affiliation with the current "story": a few harmless, lowbrow laughs, all of which are forever indebted to the formulas of crap past.

Annapolis isn’t anything but an over-boiled, corn-fed version of An Officer and a Gentleman.
