The Avengers is ridiculously entertaining. It’s pretty much a perfect summer movie.

The movie’s tone is perfect Marvel; the characters are completely true to their previous movies; the balance of wit, charm, intelligence, drama and poignancy is lovely, and both the tease for The Avengers 2 and the tag following the end credits are amazing. Even the 3D is effective – though it only really gets to shine in the last act.

Sherlock Holmes 2

DueDate

Our buddies at Warner Brothers and Legendary Pictures have come through for the EM Readers again.  It’s time for another EclipseMagazine.com Night At The Movies!!! This time we have a tickets for the Washington, DC Advanced Screening of Due Date! Due Date seems like the perfect movie to get your mind off the gloomy weather and this horrible election season. Starring Robert Downey, Jr. and Zach Galifianakis as two unlikely companions who are thrown together on a road trip that turns out to be as life-changing as it is outrageous.  Downey plays Peter Highman, an expectant first-time father whose wife’s due date is a mere five days away.  As Peter hurries to catch a flight home from Atlanta to be at her side for the birth, his best intentions go completely awry when a chance encounter with aspiring actor Ethan Tremblay (Galifianakis) forces Peter to hitch a ride with Ethan—on what turns out to be a cross-country road trip that will ultimately destroy several cars, numerous friendships and Peter’s last nerve.

Due Date Trailer

The screening will be held Monday, November 1 at 7:30 PM in our super secret location (cough, Gallery Place, cough).  To win simply follow our Twitter feed at twitter.com/eclipsemagazine.  Send an email to contest@eclipsemagazine.com with “Due Date Contest” in the subject line.
