There have been some very good adaptations of Mary Norton’s novel The Borrowers, but I have a hunch that Studio Ghibli’s The Secret World of Arietty – in theaters this weekend – may be the most charming. Check out the clips following the jump.

Whitney – Gone, But Never Forgotten!
Safe House – Housekeeping With A Vengeance!
After Green Lantern, it’s a pleasure to see Ryan Reynolds matching wits [and chops] with Denzel Washington – who seems to be joining Liam Neeson as a middle-aged action star – in a movie that is actually the kind of taut, suspenseful thriller that is as smart as it is violent.
Coriolanus – Before Him He Carries Noise; Behind Him He Leaves Tears!

Chronicle Entertains Michelle!
Chronicle takes all the standard Super Hero movie cliches, dresses it up with an interesting “documentary” style approach that makes the movie seem fresher than it actually ends up being. The movie isn’t so much about the “birth” of a new “Super-Hero” it’s the birth of a new villain which was an interesting take on […]
New Hunger Games Trailer
I’m really curious about this movie and want to read the books. It looks like The Running Man for teenagers.
