Top Story

Howdy folks to an Easter weekend filled with not much but just a little bit of everything to keep you going. First up we have Owen Wilson (sans crazy) starring as a bodyguard to help some high school kids. Secondly, Tyler Perry delivers yet another film devoted to family and zaniness and all that stuff. Finally in the wide release column, we have one of the best Japanese horror films ever being remade, Shutter. Let’s see if Pacey from Dawson’s Creek can do it justice. Look for some extra cash or hope the Easter Bunny leaves you some change in your baskets and enjoy the features.
