There's a recurring theme among this week's top releases, no matter how disparate they may appear. In the neo-Western 'Appaloosa,' Renee Zellweger comes between lawmen Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen. In 'My Best Friend's Girl,' Kate Hudson comes between...

BORING! A five minute gag stretched over 120 minutes. Kevin Costner needs to find some good rolls. He hasn't made a good film in years

Movie was produced to perfection , plot was funny and very timel... y we all have had politics shoved down are throat , this was fun .. go see it you will ove it ! Full Review
