Movies Coming Out This Weekend July 3 2009

Wondering what movies are coming out to theaters this Friday, July 3 2009 (or in this case on Wednesday, July 1)? Here is a list with our recommendations (which you can take or leave, it's up to you).

DEFINITELY WATCH AT THE MOVIES

Public Enemies

With a cast including Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, Billy Crudup, Marion Cotillard, and director Michael Mann, it's hard to resist. Definitely a movie to see in theaters this weekend.

Public Enemies Synopsis: In the action-thriller Public Enemies, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Mann directs Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Academy Award® winner Marion Cotillard in the story of legendary Depression-era outlaw John Dillinger (Depp)—the charismatic bank robber whose lightning raids made him the number one target of J. Edgar Hoover's fledgling FBI and its top agent, Melvin Purvis (Bale), and a folk hero to much of the downtrodden public. No one could stop Dillinger and his gang. No jail could hold him. His charm and audacious jailbreaks endeared him to almost everyone—from his girlfriend Billie Frechette (Cotillard) to an American public who had no sympathy for the banks that had plunged the country into the Depression.
But while the adventures of Dillinger's gang—later including the sociopathic Baby Face Nelson (Stephen Graham) and Alvin Karpis (Giovanni Ribisi)—thrilled many, Hoover (Billy Crudup) hit on the idea of exploiting the outlaw’s capture as a way to elevate his Bureau of Investigation into the national police force that became the FBI. He made Dillinger America's first Public Enemy Number One and sent in Purvis, the dashing "Clark Gable of the FBI." However, Dillinger and his gang outwitted and outgunned Purvis' men in wild chases and shootouts. Only after importing a crew of Western ex-lawmen (newly baptized as agents) and orchestrating epic betrayals—from the infamous "Lady in Red" to the Chicago crime boss Frank Nitti—were Purvis, the FBI and their new crew of gunfighters able to close in on Dillinger.

COUPLES RETREAT Movie Trailer

Couples Retreat Cast

Check out the trailer for COUPLES RETREAT starring Vince Vaughn, Jason Bateman, Jon Favreau, Malin Akerman, Ken Jeong, Kristen Bell, Krisin Davis, Jean Reno, and directed by Peter Billingsley.

Now this is a comedy I can definitely get behind. It looks pretty funny and the cast is great. Also Jon Favreau wrote the script, which makes me want to see Couples Retreat even more.

Couples Retreat will be released to theaters on October 9, 2009. Watch the trailer below.

Couples Retreat Synopsis: Based on an original idea of Vaughn's, the comedy follows four Midwestern couples who embark on a journey to a tropical island resort. While one of the couples is there to work on their marriage, the other three set out to jet ski, spa and enjoy some fun in the sun. They soon discover that participation in the resort's couples therapy is not optional. Suddenly, their group-rate vacation comes at a price. What follows is a hilarious look at real world problems faced by all couples.

Two Lovers

Synopsis: Two Lovers is a romantic drama set in New York City. It tells the story of Leonard, an attractive but depressed young man who moves back in with his parents following a recent heartbreak. An aspiring photographer, Leonard works part-time at his father's dry-cleaners. His concerned parents try to set him up with Sandra, the sweet and caring daughter of a close family friend. A big family dinner serves as their introduction and Leonard arranges to see her again.
Then late one night Leonard looks out his bedroom window and notices a ravishing young woman he's never seen before. Michelle recently moved into an apartment in his family's building - an apartment paid for by the wealthy married man she's seeing.

Cast: Joaquin Phoenix, Gwyneth Paltrow, Isabella Rossellini, Vinessa Shaw, Elias Koteas, John Ortiz, Moni Moshonov

Director: James Gray

Recommendations: I was intrigued by the trailer for Two Lovers, and because of the cast I think it's worth a rental.

Buy it: TWO LOVERS on Amazon (also available on Blu-ray)

PAPER MAN Preview Videos with Jeff Daniels

Ryan Reynolds, Jeff Daniels - Paper Man

Update: Unfortunately, we were asked to bring the clips down. The good news is the reason for it is because the movie is in the process of being sold and, without boring you too much, copyright will eventually change owners. Hopefully we'll have a trailer soon though.

Check out four video clips from PAPER MAN starring Jess Daniels, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds, Lisa Kudrow, Hunter Parrish, Kieran Culkin, and directed by Kieran Mulroney and Michele Mulroney.

Paper Man was the opening movie at the 2009 Los Angeles Film Festival and it's a really awesome movie. I am working on my review and should have it up soon so keep an eye out for that.

In the meantime check out the four clips from Paper Man below. In the first clip you'll get to see Ryan Reynolds as Captain Excellent, which is probably the best part of the movie. In the third one you can see Lisa Kudrow who plays Jeff Daniels' wife, and in the fourth clip you get to see Emma Stone, who is really wonderful in the movie. Unfortunately, Paper Man doesn't have a release date yet, but whenever it does, you guys have to check it out.

Daniel Craig to Star in DREAM HOUSE

Daniel Craig

Daniel Craig is in talks to star in DREAM HOUSE, a new psychological thriller to be directed by Jim Sheridan ("In America").

The story of Dream House would follow a man and his family who move to a small town. Unfortunately for them, they soon realize their house is haunted by its former inhabitants, who were murdered.

Jim Sheridan has done so many incredible movies, I'm definitely interested in seeing how this movie turns out, especially if Daniel Craig ends up starring in it.

Larry Fessenden Interview

When I went to the screening of I SELL THE DEAD at the 2009 LA Film Festival, I got a chance to talk to Larry Fessenden who plays Willie Grimes in the movie. I do apologize for the sound, it's a little hard to hear him, but there were a lot of people around. Hopefully, you enjoy his interview anyway. (You can also watch our interview with Dominic Monaghan here.)

I Sell the Dead is directed by Glenn McQuaid and is sort of a comedy/horror film, about two grave robbers.

Check out what Larry Fessenden had to say about the movie below.
