The Bachelor - Chris

O'Donnell plays a man who must get married to get his

massive inheritance. I'll bet somebody learns the true

meaning of love along the way. Rated PG-13.

Being John Malkovich

- Spike Jonze directs this film that seems to have

everybody talking. John Cusack finds a door that leads

into the mind of John Malkovich (the spooky actor). Soon,

everybody is taking a ride inside the actor, but at what

cost? This film is only playing at Tara in Atlanta. Rated

R.

The Best Man - A comedy about

an author who gets into trouble writing about

semi-fictional accounts with his friend's girlfriend

starring Taye Diggs (Go) Rated R.

Blue Streak - Martin Lawrence

plays a jewel thief who passes as a detective. If Eddie

Murphy can do police comedy, Martin can do police comedy.

I hear this is pretty good. Rated PG-13.

The Bone Collector -

This was a great book, so be careful of the film. Denzel

Washington plays a paralyzed man who was formerly a

detective. He helps a rookie cop track down a serial

killer. Rated R.

Bringing out the Dead - Nicolas

Cage stars as an EMT in Hell's Kitchen in 1993. He

suffers a sort of breakdown and must come to terms with

the ghosts of his job. Rated R.

Crazy in Alabama - A

lot of fun and very true to the book. Aunt Lucille

(Melanie Griffith) heads for Hollywood, while PeeJoe

(Lucas Black) finds himself in the middle of the Civil

Rights movement. Rated PG-13.

Double Jeopardy - Have

you seen the preview for the number one movie in America?

If you have, you pretty much know where this one is

headed. Ashley Judd plays the wrongly accused wife and

Tommy Lee Jones is the pursuant who really wants to help

her. Rated R.

Fight Club - Brad Pitt

and Edward Norton star in this intense action-drama about

members of a ...well, Fight Club, that progresses into

scary terrorist acts. This movie is very good with an

exceptional, Sixth Sense type plot twist. Careful though,

it is brutal and bloody. Rated R.

For Love of the Game -

If there's one thing that Kevin Costner does well, it's a

baseball movie. This one is directed by Sam Raimi, a

former wildman director known for the Evil Dead trilogy.

He has toned down of late and become a seriously

ambitious, yet still daring director. Rated PG-13.

House on Haunted Hill

- This was actually very well done . It has a solid

cast, good scares and innumerable plot twists. It is gory

and not meant for children.Rated R.

The Insider - Russell

Crowe and Al Pacino star in this film about a man with

inside information on cigarette manufacturers. This is

based on a true story. Rated R.

Random Hearts -

Harrison Ford and Kristin Scott Thomas star in this

suspense drama about two people who find a connection

between their spouses, while surrounded by political

intrigue. You would think this was a good movie. Rated R.

The Sixth Sense - This

is an incredible movie with one of the best endings in

recent history. It is well acted, masterfully directed

and ultra creepy without being ultra-blatant. Rated

PG-13.

Superstar - I am not a

big fan of the "take an SNL sketch and make it a 90

minute film" idea, but Molly Shannon is funny and

Wayne's World was surprisingly good. Flip a coin. Rated

PG-13

Three Kings - Getting

lots of good buzz, this movie has a solid cast, an

intriguing young director, and a political message. There

is violence, but it is a war movie and it does not

detract from the performances or the script. Rated R.

The Story of Us - Want

to watch all the ups and downs of a fictional marriage?

At least this one stars Bruce Willis and Michelle

Pfeiffer and not your neighbors. Rated PG-13.

The Straight Story -

You may have heard about the man who drove 300 miles on

his riding lawnmower to visit his sick brother. This is

the movie based on that story and it is directed by David

Lynch (Twin Peaks). This is only in Atlanta,too. Seems

Fayette County Theaters only get the big movies that take

up two or three screens. Rated G. (And that's not a

typo).

Also

Playing

Big Daddy - Adam

Sandler comedy about a slacker who adopts a little boy to

win his girlfriend back. Sweet, cute, and funny. I'd

really like some old school Sandler comedy though. Billy

Madison 2 anyone? Rated PG-13.

Bowfinger - Great

comedy about a failing director trying to make his

Hollywood dreams come true. This was written by Steve

Martin and is rib-hurtingly funny. Rated PG-13.

Deep Blue Sea -

Scientists experiment with sharks and deal with the

consequences on the next Ricki Lake. Rated R.

The Haunting - This

movie is still out. Ahhhhhh!!!Nooooo!!!!! Rated PG-13.

Inspector Gadget - It

looked better than it really was, but it is fun for the

whole family. Technically, you shouldn't ever see Claw's

face, but...whatever. Rated PG. The Iron Giant - An

animated film that pays tribute to the classic Warner

Brothers animation. Your kids should enjoy it and so

should you. Rated PG.

Jakob the Liar - A man

lies to his family and town to protect them from the

horrors of the Holocaust. Now, why does this sound

familiar? Rated PG-13.

Star Wars Episode 1 -

This was a great movie and you just can't beat watching

it for a dollar. Enjoy yourselves and May the Force be

with you. Rated PG.
