February Theatrical Releases
by Betty Jo Tucker

Sorry, all you incurable romantics out there, this year’s Valentine month includes only a couple of films with emphasis on love. Instead, most releases concentrate on comedy and thrills. Check out the schedule below, but remember all dates are subject to change.

FEBRUARY 6

He’s Just Not That Into You. Stars galore fill the screen in this comedy about misreading others. Just look at a few of the cast members: Jennifer Aniston, Ben Affleck, Scarlett Johansson, Drew Barrymore, Ginnifer Goodwin, Justin Long.

The Pink Panther 2. Steve Martin returns in his second comic outing as the bumbling Inspector Clouseau. Joining him for all the fun are John Cleese, Jean Reno, Emily Mortimer, Andy Garcia and Judith Godreche.  

Coraline. Watch out for secret doors in your house! In this animated fantasy, a young girl, voiced by Dakota Fanning, goes through one of these portals and finds herself facing an alternate version of her life.

Fanboys. Five friends decide to steal an early copy of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace from Skywalker Ranch. Will the Force be with them?   

Push. Busy Dakota Fanning appears as one of a group of youngsters with telekinetic and clairvoyant powers in this sci-fi thriller. Other cast members include: Chris Evans, Djimon Hounsou, Cliff Curtis and Trent Ford.

FEBRUARY 13

Confessions of a Shopaholic. Hooray -- a romantic comedy just in time for Valentine’s Day! Isla Fisher plays a financial journalist who loves to shop but has trouble paying off all her debts. She falls for a wealthy entrepreneur, so that might help, especially if he’s portrayed by the charismatic Hugh Dancy.   

The International. Clive Owen and Naomi Watts co-star in this thriller about an Interpol agent trying to expose the involvement of a financial institution in arms dealing.

Under the Sea 3D. A documentary about the impact of global warming on the oceans.

Friday the 13th. Jason Voorhees is up to evil shenanigans again. This time he’s played by Derek Mears.

Two Lovers. This romantic drama pairs Joaquin Phoenix and Gwyneth Paltrow in the story of a depressed man attempting to recover from a recent heartbreak.   

FEBRUARY 20

Madea Goes to Jail. What happens when Tyler Perry’s Madea lands in jail? She meets all types of mixed-up people, of course! Derek Luke, Keke Palmer, Keishia Knight Pulliam, David Mann and Perry are included in the cast roster.  

Fired Up. Nicholas D’Agosto and Eric Christian Olsen play two high school students who decide to attend cheerleading camp instead of football camp in order to meet gorgeous girls. Amusing situations ensue.   

FEBRUARY 27

Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. A strong female fighter searches for justice in this movie adaptation of the popular video game. Kristin Kreuk plays the title role.

Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience. Musical numbers and documentary footage of these tween/teen faves.
