I think I laughed maybe twice over the course of the two trailers for Bridesmaids. Despite this, I decided that I would check out the film for a couple of reasons – the producing directing team of Judd Apatow and Paul Feig, and the combination of Kristen Wiig, Rose Byrne and Melissa McCarthy.

Thor! Michelle’s Take!
THOR = Cosmic Fun!
In Marvel Entertainment’s Thor, it may just have its Superman: The Motion Picture.
Fast Five – Just Go With the Supersonic Flow!
The movies in the Fast & The Furious series have never been ‘films’ – they are popcorn flicks in the truest sense. If you want unbridled action with a minimum of dialogue and a lot of hot cars, gorgeous girls and ripped guys, then this is the series for you.
Prom – High School and Prom From The Disneyverse!

African Cats is Just a Bit Darker Than the Usual Disney Nature Documentary – And That’s a Good Thing!
Disneynature’s third annual nature documentary, African Cats, is both more of the same and a bit different from the usual Disney nature documentary. Its flaws are glaringly obvious, but it its differences strengthen it. The parallel stories told involve two African cats: a lion cub dubbed Mara and a cheetah they call Sita.
