Public Enemies starring Johnny Depp & other movies out in theaters

Here are the new movies to watch this weekend. Look for other great movie reviews on Popcornmonsters.com.



No one could stop Dillinger and his gang. No jail could hold him. His charm and audacious jailbreaks endeared him to almost everyone—from his girlfriend Billie Frechette (Cotillard) to an American public who had no sympathy for the banks that had plunged the country into the Depression. But while the adventures of Dillinger’s gang—later including the sociopathic Baby Face Nelson (Stephen Graham) and Alvin Karpis (Giovanni Ribisi)—thrilled many, Hoover (Billy Crudup) hit on the idea of exploiting the outlaw’s capture as a way to elevate his Bureau of Investigation into the national police force that became the FBI. He made Dillinger America’s first Public Enemy Number One and sent in Purvis, the dashing “Clark Gable of the FBI.’’ However, Dillinger and his gang outwitted and outgunned Purvis’ men in wild chases and shootouts. Only after importing a crew of Western ex-lawmen (newly baptized as agents) and orchestrating epic betrayals—from the infamous “Lady in Red’’ to the Chicago crime boss Frank Nitti—were Purvis, the FBI and their new crew of gunfighters able to close in on Dillinger.



The sub zero heroes are back. Scrat is still trying to nab the ever elusive nut, while maybe finding true love. Manny and Ellie await the birth of their mini-mammoth. Diego the saber toothed tiger wonders if he's growing too soft and Sid the sloth gets into trouble when he creates his own makeshift family by hijacking some dinosaur eggs. On a mission to rescue the hapless Sid, the gang ventures into a mysterious underground world, where they have some close encounters with dinosaurs, battle flora and fauna, run amuck and meet a relentless, one eyed, dino-hunting weasel named Buck.



Meet Genevieve. She loves romance. She loves flowers. She loves Valentine's Day. All of which is fitting as the owner of "Roses for Romance," a quaint flower shop in the heart of a friendly Brooklyn, NY neighborhood. Her one problem is that she hates relationships. Having been hurt numerous times in the past when it comes to matters of the heart, Genevieve keeps herself happy by not letting any one man in. Dating is a game to her, a game she is very good at. Genevieve doesn't get dumped and never gets hurt because she doesn't stick around long enough for things to get ugly. Then she meets Greg.

Homecoming movie review...coming to theaters July 17!

Homecoming Movie Review by star757



Suspenseful, scary, and keeps you guessing what will happen next. I thought this was a very good movie. A good story kept the movie going, and this one didn't need any special effects or over the top events. This movie is about a high school football star, Mike (played by Matt Long) who returns home from college with a new girlfriend, Elizabeth (played by Jessica Stroup). His high school sweetheart Shelby (played by Mischa Barton) never really forgot about him. In fact, she is obsessed with him and doesn't believe they are really broken up. After there first night in Mike's hometown, Elizabeth disappears. What happened to her? Did she go back to an ex-boyfriend? Was she nervous about meeting Mike's parents, or is there something sinister going on? You might be able to guess that Shelby has something to do with it. I don't want to give too much away. The best movies are the ones where you don't already know the whole movie from a trailer or review. This movie has a small cast, but the acting is well done and believable. Overall, I really enjoyed this movie. It keeps you on the edge of your seat watching for what will happen next and trying to guess how it's all going to end. The story line is interesting and the whole movie comes together with all the pieces coming together at the end. Thrilling, scary, suspenseful...one you will enjoy watching at the theater. Watch it in theaters July 17.

Buy the Movie Poster for Transformers

Transformers features Popcornmonsters.com actor of the week Shia LaBeouf as Sam Witwicky. This was a good movie. When it first came out I really had no desire to see it, I didn't care about the transformers. I had heard that it was a good movie and so we rented it. It is packed with action. It's a pretty long movie, 1 hr and 23 min, but it keeps moving the whole time. If you like action packed movies and special effects you will love it. The transformers come to Earth in search of the "cube". It is an energy source that creates life. Megatron, the head of the evil decepticons, wants to find it and take over Earth's technology and get rid of the humans. The good autobots are led by Optimus Prime. Each transformer is a car, truck, plane, etc. that transformers into a huge robot with special abilities. The movie begins at an air force base in the middle east that comes under attack by some huge machine. A few survivors are left who contact the gov't. and try to stop the transformer. The machine has somehow hacked into military computers and taken all the information it could. From here the movie turns to high school student Sam out to get his first car. The car, a transformer named Bumblebee, really chooses him. Eventually Sam meets all the transformers and learns of the cube and how they hope to save the world. Optimus Prime wants no humans hurt, only to stop Megatron from obtaining the cube. Sam has a tie to Megatron in that his great-grandfather discovered him while exploring the arctic circle many years before. Megatron was frozen in the ice and Sam's grandfather activated something on him that produced a laser and imprinted the map of the cube's location onto his glasses. Sam now owns these glasses and is trying to sell them on ebay. That is how the transformers find him. From here it's just action packed. There is a subplot with some computer experts trying to trace the source that has hacked into the military computers to steal all their information. A lot goes on in the movie, but it is not hard to follow. I would recommend this movie if you're looking for a good, fun action movie. It's funny at parts, has a good story and keeps you watching the whole time.
