First up in the new crop of films in wide release for this week is Nancy Drew, the big screen adaptation of the classic girl detective novels starring Emma Roberts in the title role. I’m not sure how this one will do at the box office - the trailer for this looked kind of crappy, and I’m not sure how much appeal the books hold with today’s youth.

DOA: Dead or Alive is one movie this week I can pretty much guarantee will totally blow. It’s based on a best selling video game so, yeah. No Uwe Boll though, so that’s a plus.

The big blockbuster fo the week is Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. I have high hopes for this, as it’s based on the best FF story ever. Hopefully it’s a little better than the first FF borefest.

Of the films in limited release this week, I’m most looking forward to Fido. It looks like Zombies meet Pleasantville. Will this be the zombie film that finally has the scene that trumps Zombie vs. Shark? We’ll just have to wait and see.
