New To Theatres This Weekend: Sept. 5, 2008

If you want proof that theatrical releases drop off immediately after the summer, just take a look at this weekend’s line-up. The only major new release is the Nicolas Cage action remake Bangkok Dangerous, which is getting pretty terrible reviews across the board. In select theatres we have Jessica Yu’s indie comedy Ping Pong Playa, along with a romantic comedy called Everybody Wants To Be Italian. At least Brad Anderson’s thriller Transsiberian is expanding to a few more theatres this weekend, so go out and catch this if you get the chance.

  1. Saw the new movie Ping Pong Playa this weekend, and it rocked! It’s about a guy who wants to be a basketball star, but ends up teaching his mother’s ping pong classes after she gets into an accident. Jimmy Tsai was hilarious as C-Dub! You can find an exclusive featurette for it here:_vh1.com/movies/movie/365591/trailers.jhtml
