    Alice in Wonderland

    Alice in Wonderland

    Even at 19, Alice hasn't gotten her feet firmly underneath her. She's tumbled back down the rabbit hole—and this time Underland wants her to dispatch the fearsome Jabberwocky. Why so fearsome? Because Tim Burton wanted him to be so.

    Brooklyn's Finest

    Brooklyn's Finest

    It could be said that Training Day director Antoine Fuqua is again trying to create social commentary about power and corruption. But the lengths to which he goes are quite literally obscene.

    Rating: R

    The Crazies

    The Crazies

    This remake of a 1973 George Romero horror flick adds new scares and buckets more gore, not to mention an unlikely call to ... environmental activism.

    Cop Out

    Cop Out

    What father wouldn't sell his ultra-valuable baseball card and take on a drug cartel to pay for his daughter's über-expensive wedding? But do we need to see a foul-mouthed movie about it?

    Rating: R

    Shutter Island

    Shutter Island

    Martin Scorsese again teams up with Leonardo DiCaprio, this time in the claustrophobic confines of an isolated asylum for the criminally insane. Are we supposed to just shudder at Shutter Island? Or is there more to it than that?

    Rating: R

    Valentine's Day

    Valentine's Day

    Garry Marshall is an iconic helmsman in Hollywood—for a whole lot more reasons than just The Princess Diaries, Pretty Woman and Beaches. Maybe that's why half the actors in California showed up to give him chocolates on Valentine's Day.

    Rating: PG-13
