A little potpourri here as we have something for everyone this week. Sandra Bullock shows up in another version of a love story no doubt. Gerard Butler shows up in the action version of a little movie that appeared on the scene in 2006 called Stay Alive, but this looks to be at least a little better. Finally…Mike Judge has a new movie out. Jason Bateman is in it. Do you need more reason to go see it? Ok, Mila Kunis and pothead looking Ben Affleck are in it too. WINNER!
