This week we have 2 thrillers and one comedy.My pick of the week is
Zero Dark Thirty- After her successful war movie The Hurt Locker
,Kathryn Bigelow is back with yet another war thriller.Based on the true
story behind Bin Laden's capture ,ZDT has already made a big impact on
the Awards Season.The movie has a solid 94% rating too.This will be my
Pick Of The Week!
Gangster Squad-This movie was supposed to be
released in July 2012 ,but after the Colorado shootings during TDKR's
premiere ,Gangster Squad was postponed for its violence.The movie has a
solid cast of Ryan Gosling (Drive),Sean Penn (Mystic River) ,Josh Brolin
and Emma Stone.The movie is directed by Ruben Fleischer of Zombieland
fame.
A Haunted House ,is a comedy/horror movie starring the
Wayan.Its a spoof of recent horror flicks ,and is to be AVOIDED at all
costs.If Marlon Wayan's past is checked ,its filled with idiotic movies
and parodies and Haunted House trailers shows no difference.Save your
money and watch something else.
