movies anybody?

Opening This Week:

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/m/11_melancholia.htm> Melancholia
★★★½ (out of ★★★★)

Now OnDemand, In Select Cities Nov 11 - Awesome special effects emulating
the terrifying splendor of the end of days collide with the more important
story in "Melancholia," an austere portrait of the varying reactions and
outlooks that people are apt to experience as they stare death irrefutably
in the face.

Paranormal Activity 3
★★★ (out of ★★★★)

Nationwide - Judged wholly on its own merits, "Paranormal Activity 3" one-
ups both of the previous films in quality and quantity of its scares.
Returning fans will get what they came for, and then some. As All Hallows'
Eve approaches, it's the ideal moviegoing choice for anyone yearning to get
into the holiday spirit.

The Three Musketeers

Summit Entertainment did not screen "The Three Musketeers" for the press
here in the DC market. I will not be reviewing the film as I refuse to pay
inflated 3-D ticket prices for something that I have little interest in and
that the studio, apparently, has no confidence in.

<http://www.dustinputman.com/reviews/w/11_woman.htm> The Woman
★★★½ (out of ★★★★)

Select Cities - In "The Woman," the suburban ennui of 1999's "American
Beauty" collides head-on with the graphically violent nature of 2005's
"High Tension," and the results are nothing short of excitingly unique,
deeply disturbing, and beautifully macabre. Why can't more films be as
proudly one-of-a-kind as this one? Lucky McKee makes it look so easy.
