Hancock
Rating: PG-13
Stars (out of 4): * 1/2
Length: 1 hour, 32 minutes
Synopsis: This reimagining of the superhero as a loathesome, foul-mouthed, often inept beast can't even be saved by Will Smith. For while, it seems as if the improbable storyline will somehow work. But then it devolves into the terrible movie you expect. And given the sailor-caliber swearing, how it earned a PG-13 rating is a mystery.

The House Bunny
Essentially a female remake of "Revenge of the Nerds," 'The House Bunny" stars Anna Faris as a perky Playboy bunny who gets kicked out of Hef's mansion and becomes the house mother for a sorority full of misfits. Faris' sunny disposition and solid comic timing make the flick a lot more enjoyable than it ought to be. Showtimes, review and more. Watch trailer.

Don't listen to the "official" critics reviews. If you like special effects and Will Smith you will enjoy the movie. The movie has a great twist at the end. There are many jokes that are crude, but funny. If you enjoyed Will Smiths previous movies you will like this one.
