Well it’s Friday The 13th. And there other other movies that you can watch that do not include a maniac in a cool hockey mask.  This week a female sex comedy,  a vampire movie that may or may not be really cool, and a classic comes to DVD.

These are the movies that were released on Friday, May 13th 2011

Bridesmaids – Rated R

This is the Hangover with the ladies as a bachelorette party hits vegas. Though this cast of ladies features Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph in the lead roles so I am expecting to laugh a ton.

Verdict - This is being marketed at the click flick every one will enjoy.  All that means is I wont be caught dead seeing this in the theatres without a lady.

Priest – Rated PG-13

This is based off the Korean Comic book.  Paul Bettany plays a Warrior Priest who fights vampires.  Those blood suckers have his niece and so Bettany goes to find her.  Originally slatted to be released as far back as August 2010.  It tells me one of two things.  Either the studio (Screen Gems) thinks this is a stinker and keep giving more time to make it better or the studio thinks they can make some money by smartly scheduling this one.  I am going to go with both.  Why would you place this a week after Thor?

Verdict - Paul Bettany’s involvement make it too hard to pass up, but i havent seen Thor yet so i may have to pass up for now.

Box Office Top 5 Movies In The Country
1. Thor – Rated PG-13
2. Fast Five – Rated PG-13
3. Jumping The Broom – Rated PG-13
4. Something Borrowed – Rated PG-13
5. Rio – Rated G

Thor and Fast Five stole most of the box office this past weekend and that should continue.  I am surprised that Jumping The Broom with little marketing took home 3rd.  Perhaps I am the only person who didn’t know about Jumping The Broom.

These are the movies released on DVD the week of May 3rd, 2010

No Strings Attached – Rated R

This is a nice romantic comedy for you couples out there.  Well at lest the girl might like it.

Justin Bieber: Never Say Never – Rated G

Your daughter might want it but give her the money to go buy it her self.  I fear you might end up on a list if you are a male over the age of 18 and you buy this movie.

Home Improvement: 20th Anniversary Complete Collection

All 8 seasons of Home Improvement in one set.  I have seen this in resent years, and while I dont think it this show has aged gracefully its still fun to watch.  Home Improvement being 20 years old makes me feel really old.

Next week Anthony Hopikins is possesed and the return of Captian Jack.  I must brush up on my pirate.  See you next week.
