An odd assortment of summer holdovers hit theatres today including Gamer (the latest action flick from the writer/director team behind Crank), Mike Judge’s new comedy Extract, and the Sandra Bullock comedy All About Steve. The Chris Pine post-apocalyptic horror film Carriers is also out this weekend, although Paramount Vantage has opted to give it a very small release on just 100 screens. Also in limited release is the Renée Zellweger period comedy My One and Only. What will you be checking out?

  1. Carriers is on something like 10 screens here in Minneapolis. Why the hell we’re being saturated I have no idea.

  3. I traveled all the way to South Philadelphia to see Carriers and it was definitely worth it. It was an exciting, spooky thriller. Chris Pine was awesome (and so disturbingly sexy) as the bad guy. In fact, the whole cast was great (I’m also crushing on the barely legal Lou Taylor Pucci now). Matt Gamble, do yourself a favor and go see Carriers right now.

  4. I’m looking forward on watching Gamer, it’s seems to be a promising movie. I just hope that I wouldn’t get disappointed ‘coz right now I’m really on a good mood in watching game related movie because I’m waiting for WoW the movie and maybe by next year Aion will be on the big screen too.

  5. Gamer is a tickling concept at best. What they don’t tell you in the trailer is that shaky cam shots (which ruin all potential breath-taking action), more plot-holes than a kitchen sive and a wooden Butler completely fuck this movie up. It’s pretty much a rehash of Running Man, Brainscan with all the antics of Neveldine/Taylor (Fast becoming the worst writer/director team) psuedo-edginess , a.k.a – big sweaty tits, cheap gore and not much else.
