After a three-week cinematic drought, this weekend finally delivers some new movies (well, at least one) that just might be worth watching. The promising second Stephen King adaptation of the year is finally here, as is a romantic...
That Tim Curry performance as Pennywise in the 1990 TV miniseries might be iconic, but beyond that, Stephen King’s magnum horror opus ‘It’ never really got the film adaptation it deserved. Only those who have rea...
After several weeks of low attendance, this Labor Day improved on last week’s performance, but still ended up being the worst Labor Day holiday since 2000. Giving weight to how bad it was, ‘The Hitman’s Bodyguard...
After sitting on a shelf somewhere in the Weinsteins’ offices for years, ‘Tulip Fever’ is finally getting unceremoniously dumped onto screens this weekend. Weirdly enough, a number of the actors became rather fam...

This weekend’s selection of new movies is so weak that the most appealing option is a 3D conversion of a 26-year-old sci-fi action classic. Pitted against a Weinstein animated kids’ movie, a faith-based drama, and a ku...
