Need for Speed
Starting a few years ago in 2011, movies about people racing cars (read: Fast & Furious movies) became very big business. And when a franchise becomes successful every studio that doesn't have that franchise wants a similar franchise, and they start digging through their potential properties to see if they have something similar. Dreamworks dug through their stuff and came out with Need for Speed.
Dreamworks seems to be pretty serious about the way they handle this property. They hired Act of Valor director, Scott Waugh. That seems like a good fit. One of the writers generated a lot of buzz when his screenplay for Flight was nominated for an oscar. I'm not sure if that's a good fit. But Dominic Cooper is in this movie and I like him. So go see it.
Oh, and Michael Keaton is in it too.
Tyler Perry's The Single Moms Club
Tyler Perry is a genius. He is one of the smartest people in Hollywood. He found a little niche market where there was demand with no supply and he has been supplying ever since.
The Single Moms Club is exactly what it sounds like. It's a heartwarming sort of support and friendship thing. Has there ever been a movie where all the main characters are single moms? No. That's the genius of Tyler Perry.
Of course it was written and directed by Tyler Perry so if you have liked any of his movies in the past you will like this one.
The one. The only. Big Shot Critic
