It’s Wednesday, so today I give you my weekly list of movies that will open in theatres this week as well as a list of movies that will be released this week on DVD.
I hope this will serve as a useful guide as to what’s going on this week if you happen to be near a movie theatre or if you’re looking for something to drop into your NetFlix queue.
Movies that are scheduled to hit theatres this week include:
- Another Earth (Drama, Science Fiction, PG-13): Directed by Mike Cahill and starring William Mapother, Brit Marling, Jordan Baker, Flint Beverage and Robin Taylor.
- Captain America: The First Avenger (Action, Adventure, PG-13): Directed by Joe Johnston and starring Chris Evans, Hugo Weaving, Tommy Lee Jones, Samuel L. Jackson and Hayley Atwell.

- Take Me Home Tonight (Comedy, Drama, R): Director Michael Dowse and starring Topher Grace, Anna Faris, Dan Fogler, Teresa Palmer and Chris Pratt.
If I could only watch one movie at the theatre this week, it would be “Captain America: The First Avenger,” and if I had to pick just one DVD to rent this week, it would be “Limitless.”
In the end, let me know if you get a chance to watch any of the new movies in theatres this week or if you’ve already seen any of the movies that have just been released on DVD. What did you think about them? Which would you recommend? Let us know in the comments section below.
I really wanted to like this movie. After all the terrible superhero movies that have been released lately, I was somehow hoping that "Captain America" would be different. It wasn't.
