They say you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but you can definitely judge a movie by its poster. I don't even have to read the plot for these because its just so obvious that they are about. I will say this about one of this week's movies. The trailer for Burlesque was one of the dumbest I've seen in a very long time. It made the movie seem so stupid that I don't just NOT want to see it, It made me actually pissed-off the movie was made in the first place.

Is about an unmanned, half-mile-long freight train carrying some pretty bad stuff that no one has control of and is headed straight into a big city, where it could kill everyone. It's funny, even though this movie is based on true events, the plot for it still sounds pretty cheesy. I keep hearing Homer Simpson in my head referring to this movie as "The Train That Couldn't Slow Down".

Morning Glory
Is about a hotshot television producer who is trying to save his struggling morning television show. Other than that, I know very little about this movie, except that it stars Rachel McAdams; she's always fun to look at.

Skyline
It's an alien invasion movie.
These are all pretty much the same, yet I still enjoy most of them. They rarely have a believable plot (with a few exceptions, of course) but they always have cool special effects, and cool creatures, which ultimately is all we expect these days from sci-fi action films. I don't think this film will fail to deliver.

Due Date
Is about a father-to-be, and an aspiring actor taking a road trip in order to make it to the child's birth on time. This movie looks funny from the trailers, and I guess that is probably the reason I won't go see it this weekend because it's been my experience that they usually always put the fumiest parts of comedies into their trailers that there really is no reason to watch the movie... you've already seen the best parts. 

For Colored Girls
Is about four women dealing with different issues that impact women in general and women of color in particular. I'm sure this will be a good movie that deals with important issues, but I'm not black and I'm not a woman, this movie was very obviously not made for me so there's no point in me watching it.

Megamind
Family movies have all been pretty great this year, and I don't see why this one will be any exception. It's got a pretty appealing all-star cast and Computer Animated movies always have some pretty cool 3D effects.
