Just Like Heaven (2005) Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005) (F/S)
Suspension of disbelief is a necessity--albeit a pleasurable one--regarding many aspects of this romantic comedy, not the least of which being that either of its good-looking leads would ever lead lonely existences. Reese Witherspoon plays ambitious medical intern Elizabeth, who regularly clocks in 20 hour days at the hospital. Her work is her life, much to the chagrin of her sister Abby, who is married, with kids, and constantly attempting to get Elizabeth to go out more. When Abby finally succeeds in setting up a blind date for her sister, Elizabeth has an accident en route while driving to meet the mystery man, and the stage is set for love.

Eccentric, cheese-loving English inventor Wallace (voiced by Peter Sallis) and his trusted silent canine companion, Gromit, have a thriving business in their garden-destroying varmint-elimination service, named Anti-Pesto. Together they prepare for the upcoming Giant Vegetable Growing contest. Wallace even has a potential paramour in wealthy client Lady Tottington (Helena Bonham Carter), a vegetable enthusiast with a severe rabbit problem. Unfortunately, the tight-coiffed, slick-talking hunter Victor Quartermaine (Ralph Fiennes) also has designs on the lady, and he's not giving up easily. When a giant rabbit terrorizes the townsfolk and begins devouring some prizewinning veggies, another dimension is added to the existing competition between Wallace and Victor, and the outcome will be the talk of the town! Following up the success of 2000's CHICKEN RUN, master clay animator Nick Park has given Wallace and Gromit--the stars of three celebrated shorts--their own feature, and with thrilling results. The eye-popping animation comes along with appealing character design and beautifully detailed environments, and we are also given an engaging, multi-layered story populated with characters to care about. As with Park's previous successes, the result has a cross-generational appeal that will undoubtedly age in the timeless manner of all great entertainment.

Saw II (F/S) God's Army
In SAW, a huge horror hit in 2004, a masked man called Jigsaw orchestrated the kidnapping of two people, chained them in a disgusting bathroom in an abandoned house, and played vicious, brutal mind games with them that potentially could lead to their freedom. Jigsaw is back for more gory fun in SAW II, but this time he comes out from behind the mask to terrorize a troubled cop face-to-face. Tobin Bell reprises his brief role as Jigsaw in the first film with a major starring turn in the sequel. Dying of cancer, Jigsaw lets himself get caught, only to show Detective Eric Matthews (Donnie Wahlberg) that his son, Daniel (Erik Knudsen), has been taken hostage with seven other people, all of whom have been placed in a house of horrors with only the slimmest chance of escaping with their lives. Jigsaw promises Matthews that Daniel will live only if the cop follows the rules of the game, but time is running out, as the captives' bodies have been poisoned with a toxin that will soon destroy them. Meanwhile, in the dank, mysterious, booby-trapped house, the ever-more-desperate group of people (including Shawnee Smith, who is back as Amanda, the lone survivor of SAW) furiously try to find their connection to each other and a way out, but blood and violence lie in their path. Like its predecessor, SAW II is a frightening thriller filled with plenty of tricks and treats to satisfy even the most jaded horror fan.

Written and directed by Robert Dutcher, the threateningly titled GOD'S ARMY is a Mormon made film whose grassroots theatrical distribution scheme resembled 1999's THE OMEGA CODE. The film itself follows a group of young missionaries who behave much like typical college students on the weekends, but who spend their days ringing the doorbells of everyone from prostitutes to suburban housewives distributing the tenets of their faith and seeking conversions. Fortunately, the boys have a mentor in Elder Dalton (Dutcher), a wise beyond his years 29 year-old who teaches them acceptance and the importance of skepticism. Entertaining and insightful, GOD'S ARMY is an involving look at both Mormonism and the difficulties of maintaining religious faith.
