  • Regal South Hill Cinema 6: Thurs 12:30, 2:50.

ATONEMENT: An event on the lawn of an English country house is misinterpreted by a 13-year-old girl and leads her to a wicked lie that destroys all possibility of happiness for herself, her older sister (Keira Knightley) and her sister’s lover (James McAvoy).  Begins in sheer happiness, ventures through the horror of the war in France and London, ends in darkest irony.  One of the year’s best films, a certain best picture nominee. (R) Four stars – RE

  • Blue Mouse Theater: Fri-Wed 7. Sat-Sun 4.
  • The Grand Cinema: Thurs 5:40.

BE KIND, REWIND: After every tape in a VHS rental store is inadvertently erased, Jack Black and Mos Def don’t want the store owner (Danny Glover) to find out.  So they set to work to “re-enact” the films in low-tech home movies.  I felt positive and genial while watching it, but I didn’t break out in paroxysms of laughter.  Written and directed by the usually more brilliant Michel Gondry. (PG-13) Two and a half stars – RE

THE BUCKET LIST: Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman play geezers who Meet Cute in a hospital room, where they’re both given a year to live.  Freeman keeps a list of things he means to do before kicking the bucket, and Nicholson, a billionaire, gleefully insists they use his private jet to circle the globe, see the pyramids, the Himalayas, the Taj Mahal, etc. (PG-13) One star – RE

  • Yelm Cinemas @ Prairie Park: Thurs 5.

CHARLIE BARTLETT: Anton Yelchin is appealingly goofy in this teen comedy about a kid’s yearning for popularity won by illegally selling prescription drugs to his fellow students.  Like many of John Hughes’ high school movies it presents a fantasy about kids from different social circles — nerds, jocks, punks, cheerleaders, drama clubbers — coming together to fight adult authoritarianism.  Co-starring Hope Davis, Kat Dennings and Robert Downey Jr., dominating every scene he’s in as the drunken school principal. (R) Two and a half stars – JE

CHARLIE WILSON’S WAR: Tom Hanks as a hard-drinking Texas congressman who, at the urging of a Houston socialite (Julia Roberts), uses his congressional subcommittee to arrange a secret $1 billion arms deal between Israel and Afghan freedom fighters, with Pakistan as the intermediary.  That results in the defeat of the Russians, and the beginning of the end of the Cold War. (R) Three stars – RE

DEFINITELY, MAYBE: As the lead in director Adam Brooks’ bittersweet romantic comedy, Ryan Reynolds finally steps into a charming, vulnerable character that perfectly fits his comedic talents.  He plays Will Hayes, a thirty-something advertising whiz who agrees to tell his 10-year-old daughter, Maya (Abigail Breslin), about the women he dated before her mom, but he changes the names and Maya must guess which one is her mother.  With Elizabeth Banks, Isla Fisher and Rachel Weisz as the women in his life.

JIMMY CARTER: MAN FROM PLAINS: A low-key but insightful documentary about how the former president, now 83, maintains a ceaseless schedule of travel, speeches, talk show appearances and meetings, most devoted to his obsession with peace in the Middle East.  His beliefs, both political and religious, seem to reinvigorate him; he avoids partisan politics but founds his life on deep values.  Inspirational.

  • The Grand Cinema: Fri-Thurs, March 6 4:10.

JUMPER: Hayden Christensen can “jump” anywhere anytime. Samuel L. Jackson wants to kill him. In Giza and New York and London and Paris and Rome and Tokyo and Ann Arbor. There are no rules. There is no plot. A series of random events occur. Sometimes they’re so silly they make you laugh. Most of the time you’d rather be anywhere else. (PG-13) One and a half stars – JE

JUNO: Very smart, very funny and then very touching; it begins with the pacing of a screwball comedy and ends as a portrait of characters we have come to love.  Ellen Page in an Oscar-worthy performance as a pregnant 16-year-old who decides to keep the child.  With J.K. Simmons and Allison Janney wonderful as her parents, older and wiser than most parents in teenage comedies. (PG) Four stars – RE

THERE WILL BE BLOOD: Daniel Day-Lewis in a virtuoso performance as an obsessed loner, starting with nothing and becoming a California oil tycoon in a life dominated by greed, duplicity, hatred and loneliness.  Paul Thomas Anderson’s epic is ambitious and relentless as the study of a human monster.  Magnificent visuals created by cinematographer Robert Elswit and set designer Jack Fisk.  A debatable ending, and the film’s reach exceeds its grasp, which is not a dishonorable thing.

THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES: A terrific entertainment for the whole family, except those below a certain age, who are likely to be scared out of their wits.  A family moves into a creepy old mansion and discovers it is already inhabited by creatures from the spirit world.  Starring Freddie Hightower as twins, Sarah Bolger as their sister, and Mary-Louise Parker as their mom, plus a supporting cast of gifted actors and impressive effects.  But it should be rated PG-13.
