Atonement
Tagline: "You can only imagine the truth."
Length: 118 minutes
MPAA Rating: R for disturbing war images, language and some sexuality
Keira Knightley and James McAvoy star in this drama adapted from Ian McEwan's novel. The movie opens in 1935 at the Tallis family's British country estate, where college-aged Cecilia Tallis (Knightley) becomes aware that she and Robbie Turner (McAvoy), the son of a servant, are sexually attracted to each other. But 13-year-old Briony gets upset and confused about what's going on between her sister Cecilia and Robbie, and the younger girl does something that ruins all three of their lives. The story takes decades to fully play out, and three actresses play Briony as she ages.

Enchanted DVD
Length: 107 minutes
MPAA Rating: PG for some scary images and mild innuendo
This is a Disney musical romantic comedy. The first several minutes of the film are animated and take place in a fairy-tale land. There the evil queen becomes displeased with a sweet-natured princess named Giselle and pushes her down a well. Then the movie switches to live action, and Giselle (Amy Adams) pops out of a manhole in modern-day Manhattan. She has trouble dealing with the bustling metropolis, but is rescued by single dad Robert Phillip (Patrick Dempsey). As others from the fairy-tale land arrive in New York, an attraction develops between Giselle and Robert.

I Am Legend DVD
Tagline: "The last man on earth is not alone."
Length: 101 minutes
MPAA Rating: PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi action and violence
Will Smith stars in this adaptation of Richard Matheson's 1954 sci-fi novel. The film opens in a desolate Manhattan where weeds are growing and there are lots of abandoned vehicles. It's 2012, and three years earlier an epidemic caused the city's evacuation, but not before many people became infected and transformed into bloodthirsty zombies. But Robert Neville (Smith) turned out to be immune, and he now lives alone with his German shepherd in a Washington Square townhouse. Neville battles loneliness as he searches for a way to reverse the disease in the zombies.

I'm going to pick up Enchanted today. $15.99 at Target. Very cute movie, and Amy Adams is hot!

Oh no! Battlestar Galactica too? I've been waiting for Season three. I got on the Battlewagon late and have watched the first two seasons on DVD. I haven't watched any of the current broadcasts to avoid spoilers. But that sucker is going to set me back. I'll have to wait until it shows up at my local used DVD store.
