What’s opening Friday, June 6?
I haven’t done these “what’s opening” entries for about a month because they didn’t feel necessary. With relatively minor competition like Made of Honor or The Strangers, the month of May has been pretty much one blockbuster per week: Iron Man, Indy, etc.
June is where it gets a bit more crowded, with about two major offerings per week. This week it’s animated chop-socky vs. Adam Sandler goofiness.
Kung Fu Panda: It’s hard not to be aware of this movie with its ubiquitous ads, but I will say this is one summer film that fully deserves the hype. Find out what I mean when my review posts tomorrow.
You Don’t Mess with the Zohan: I give Adam Sander credit for at least trying to do something off his beaten path by co-writing with Judd Apatow and Robert Smigel. The plot is certainly zany: An Israeli commando fakes his own death in order to pursue his dream of becoming a hairstylist in New York. Early reviews indicate the movie is less inspired than its idea, however.
Next week: The Incredible Hulk and M. Night Shyamalan’s The Happening.
