I am looking forward to seeing all these upcoming movies, which will (hopefully) reach South African screens around May-July 2011. Or much earlier for those of you with bootleg copies ;)
The past three 'Pirate' movies have been extremely entertaining and successful, so we should expect nothing less from the fourth installment. On Stranger Tides sees our favourite anti-hero Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) cross paths with a beautiful woman from his past, played by Penelope Cruz. They quest to find the fabled Fountain of Youth in this seaborne adventure, facing many new obstacles including the feared Captain Blackbeard, a mysterious mermaid and the return of a vengeful Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush). Keira Knightly and Orlando Bloom will be sorely missed in this edition, but Johnny Depp's brilliant comedic portrayal of Jack Sparrow should make up for it.
Something Borrowed
Ginnifer Goodwin and Kate Hudson star as best friends Rachel and Darcy in this new romcom. Rachel is a single New York lawyer who is tormented by Darcy's constant gloating about her upcoming wedding. One drunken night, Rachel gets involved with her long-time campus crush, who also happens to be Darcy's fiancé. This complicates things considerably, with Rachel torn between choosing the love of her life or her relationship with Darcy. Friendship and love is tested in this movie, but which will come out on top?
The Hangover 2
They're back! The gang are back for a second round of misfit adventures, crazy antics and ill-conceived escapades, this time in Bangkok. I can only imagine the hysterical drama that will unfold. Phil, Alan and Doug travel to Thailand to 'safely' and sanely celebrate Stu's upcoming wedding, but naturally, nothing goes according to plan. Expect hilarious and outrageous 'they-did-what?' moments.
Bridesmaids
Simple Midwestern Annie is asked to be the maid of honour at her best friend Lillian's wedding. Although Annie is lovelorn and broke, she has to put it all aside to lead a colourful pack of rich, snobby bridesmaids through expensive and bizarre pre-wedding rituals. How far will one girl go to be the perfect bridesmaid?
Midnight in Paris
As with all Woody Allen movies, I am excited to see this one. It centers around a young engaged couple (Owen Wilson and Rachel McAdams), who travel to Paris on business. The magical City of Lights has a romanticized effect on them, which begs to ask the question, 'Is the grass greener on the other side?'. I'm interested to see Wilson's performance, I never expected him to partake in an Allen movie. Also look out for the beautiful First Lady of France, Carla Bruni, who makes a guest appearance. What I love about Woody Allen movies is that the cities he chooses to film in is as much of an integral character as the actors. I envision this romantic flick to display exquisite views of Paris.
Love Wedding Marriage
Mandy Moore plays Ava, a marriage counsellor who is newly wed to Charlie (Kellan Lutz) in this upcoming romantic comedy. Ava's life is turned upside down when she discovers that her parents (played by James Brolin and Jane Seymour) are headed for divorce. Determined to have them reconcile before their 30th wedding anniversary, Ava constructs an elaborate plan to get them back together. With all the emphasis she places on saving her parents' marriage, her own marital bliss hangs delicately in the balance. Can she save their marriage without losing her own?
