MOVIES
Red - Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman and John Malkovich have some fun as CIA agents pulled out of retirement for one more job.
Jackass 3-D - I got really drunk when I saw Jackass Number Two. I’m sure many people in the audience for this movie will re-create my experience.
Conviction - Two of the modern era’s best actors work together as a working-class woman (Hilary Swank) who loses her family and focuses her entire life on getting her ne’er-do-well, but innocent, brother (Sam Rockwell) out of jail.
