The lines may be long, the theaters crowded....but....this weekend, perhaps worth the wait!

Opening This Week:

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/h/11_hp7p2.htm> Harry Potter and the
Deathly Hallows Part 2
★★★½ (out of ★★★★)

Nationwide - A mesmerizing, affecting, never less than riveting
accomplishment. With "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2," the
series has come to a stunner of a conclusion that should make proud just
about everyone: the adoring fans of J.K. Rowling's rabidly popular novels,
viewers who have not read the books but have followed and enjoyed the
movies, and the passionate actors and filmmakers who have dedicated the
better part of a decade of their lives to ensuring justice would, indeed,
be served.

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/t/11_tabloid.htm> Tabloid
★★½ (out of ★★★★)

Select Cities - Like a sensationalistic flavor-of-the-month crime or
Hollywood scandal, the film is sure to capture the viewer's attention while
it plays out, but is just as destined to lose its luster the second the
saga in question has run its course. "Tabloid" fascinates, but almost in a
trashy beach novel sort of way.

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/w/11_winniethepooh.htm> Winnie the
Pooh
★★½ (out of ★★★★)

Nationwide - If "Winnie the Pooh" were any lighter, it would float away
like a big red helium balloon. At 68 minutes (just around an hour without
the end credits), the film is as quaint as a children's film released in
2011 could ever hope to come. Still, even if it could have been better all
around, "Winnie the Pooh" is far too harmless and earnest to dislike.
