Average to below average for this weekend....

Opening This Week:

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/c/11_captainamerica.htm> Captain
America: The First Avenger
★½ (out of ★★★★)

Nationwide - Committing a cardinal sin by becoming increasingly boring,
"Captain America: The First Avenger" is unevenly paced, starved for
development, and not once exciting or intense. Take away the visual flash
and there's nothing left to care about, to think about, or to grab hold of.
It's but a means to an end in setting up "The Avengers," and let's hope
they put more care into that screenplay than they did into this one.

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/f/11_friendswithbenefits.htm> Friends
with Benefits
★★ (out of ★★★★)

Nationwide - Mediocre more than an utter failure, "Friends with Benefits"
ought to be forgotten in the shadow of the smarter, funnier, sweeter, and
altogether superior "No Strings Attached." In that film, it felt like
Kutcher and Portman were meant to be together. Here, Timberlake and Kunis
connect only because the script requires that they do.
