I don't know when the last time there was a weekend that released 2 movies that I actually wanted to see. This weekend will be releasing FOUR movies that will definitly raise the box office ticket sales percentage. The four movies being released are TMNT, Shooter, Hills Have Eyes 2, and Reign Over Me, in no particular order. Each of them unique in their own little way.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be concentrating on the younger generation, possibly trying to get them caught on turtle craze that was the late 80s, early 90s. With a new look and CGI, this movie could start a spin-off in many industries for the new slender turtles with a hip attitude and new villians.
The Hills Have Eyes promises to be more disturbing and stomach turning than the last one. This is hard to imagine if you saw the first one. It wasn't just the fake blood, and bodies parts flying every where, or even the fact that they ate the humans. It was the scene where they set the dad on fire, and infiltrate the RV raping the daughters, making them watch each other get rape. This is one of those movies you don't want to see, but deep down are begging for more.
Reign Over Me with Don Cheadle and Adam Sandler could take the pot this weekend. Two great actors about two college roommates who run into each other later in life. One is doing just fine, and the other lost everything he had in 9/11.
Shooter will be competeing with Reign Over Me. Mark Wahlberg takes the spotlight in this JFK like set-up of an assination of the president. After barely escaping he comes back with a venegenace. A little Die Hard, Terminator, and JFK all in one.
300- Don't forget.
I suggest Reign Over Me, Hills Have Eyes, TMNT, Shooter in that order....this rank is not based one which one is better, its based content.
My bet for the weekend is this
March 23, Openings
Shooter with 35 million
Reign Over Me at 33 million
300 at 20 million
TMNT at 18 million
Hills Have Eyes at 10 million
