Pick of the week: Untraceable with Diane Lane. At least, based on it’s “thrill” potential. But at least one film reviewer on TV this morning gave it 2.5 stars out of 5, and gave the new Rambo movie - which Stallone wrote and directed as well - 3 stars. That doesn’t bode well, but I’d still rather pay $9-12 to see Diane Lane than Rambo. (I’m a Sly Stallone fan, but if I’m forced to choose one movie…)

Or there’s the goofy, spoofy fun of Meet the Spartans, with Carmen Electra, Sean Maguire, Kevin Sorbo, Diedrich Bader, and Method Man. NOTE: IMDB says this opens Feb 1st but several sites (and I the TV ads, I believe) say it’s opening today. The movie spoofs 300, Ghost Rider, Donald Trump/ Apprentice, and more. Hopefully the trailers aren’t the best part of the movie.

If you dance interests you, you might consider How She Move. It’s about a high school student recovering from her sister’s death, who then finds a passion for step dancing. Purely on the “dance” level, the trailers look interesting, as well as similar to other dance movies such as Save the Last Dance and Stomp the Yard. Starring Tre Armstrong, with an appearance by Keyshia Cole as herself, in this urban drama set in the Jane-Finch corridor, one of Toronto’s “grittiest” areas. (The movie is rated PG.)

If the weather is bad this weekend, my bet is on either Rambo or Untraceable at the top of the box office. If the weather is good, it might be Meet the Spartans, because the kids will likely be out. That’s not factoring in the monster hit flick Cloverfield.
