New Movie Reviews: The Hitcher, Alpha Dog, and Primeval
How do you reimagine the legendary performances of C. Thomas Howell and Rutger Hauer in the remake of The Hitcher? You cast Sean Bean, Zachary Knighton, and Sophia Bush and hope for the best. Don't pick up any strangers on your way to the theater as The Hitcher opens wide this weekend. Also in theaters this week is Alpha Dog - based on the true crimes of high-rolling pot dealer, Johnny Truelove, early buzz marks the film as a thrilling tale of a horrible crime; Primeval - Prison Break's Dominic Purcell stars in this Lake Placid-esque trek to South Africa in search of a legendary 25-foot crocodile; and Arthur and the Invisibles - Luc Besson's animated feature that's done so well in Europe that the director is already planning two sequels. Be sure to catch reviews of other recent Theatrical Films: Stomp the Yard, Freedom Writers, Little Children, Notes on a Scandal, Code Name: The Cleaner, Pan's Labyrinth, Miss Potter. As always, we invite you to share your thoughts on films in theaters in our Movie Talk Forum Area.
