boondock saints 2
if you're gonna be renting this (and a lot of you are), then PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE also rent overnight, the documentary about the up and down life of director troy duffy and the making of the first boondock saints movie.
capitalism: a love story
like a lot of people, i have some complex feelings about michael moore, and have less and less patience with his showboating antics, but dang if he isn't able to dig up some excellent illustrative narratives and weave them into a well-paced, consistently engaging documentary.
pirate radio (aka the boat that rocked)
this one's worth it for the soundtrack alone, and that it will make you think back to philip seymore hoffman as lester bangs in almost famous.
precious
i haven't seen this, and personally have very little interest to see it, but i can bet that there are a ton of people who are gonna keep this from being readily available for at least a couple of weeks. i'd say pick it up if only to see mildly mustachioed mariah carey make amends for her role in glitter.
up in the air
this was a really great film (my personal pick of the week), and i'm really happy with the way that jason reitman (juno, thank you for smoking) is shaping up as a director. george clooney is excellent in this, as is the rest of the cast, including danny mcbride in a subtle turn as the pyramid scheming brother in law. just an out and out great little film.
