What’s opening Wednesday, Aug. 6?
This is one of those weeks when Hollywood treats us to its movies a couple of days early, and both offerings have some promise.
Pineapple Express: Here’s the oddest filmmaking combination you’ll see all year - the writers of Superbad team up with David Gordon Green, a director of arthouse fare like George Washington and All the Real Girls, to make a mainstream stoner comedy. Seth Rogen and James Franco play potheads who flee from the cops after Rogen witnesses a murder. Review to appear Wednesday.
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2: The girls of the 2005 film, a very charming little sleeper, return for more angsty, romantic travails, and the movie probably won’t be such a sleeper this time, what with all four leads having starred in successful TV shows.
And just in case you were wondering, the DVD slate is thin this week. The only mainstream release of note is the Jodie Foster/Abigail Breslin adventure Nim’s Island. On the arthouse side, there’s The Counterfeiters, this year’s foreign language film winner at the Oscars.
