June continues to be some sort of cinematic wasteland (what is this, March?), but we will solider on.  I can't imagine why anyone would go see the Tony Scott remake of The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3* or Imagine That, so we'll just have to go looking for our movie kicks somewhere else. 

Easy Virtue opens this weekend at World Exchange Centre (or WEX, as we call it), and, while I have not read a single review, much less a single positive review, I have utter confidence in Colin Firth (who is surely dying in that movie, as he looks like he's on death's door in every ad) and Kristin Scott Thomas, as they both kick so much ass. 

You've got Tyson and Little Ashes at the Bytowne. I don't know if you could tell from "The Crazy Index," but Robert Pattinson, just in and of himself, is hilarious to me, so I'll be there giggling madly. 

The Mayfair's got Polytechnique, which I feel like I told you about before but can't seem to prove, and Two Lovers, which I know I told you about before, on offer this weekend. Though it's not Gray's best effort (I still think that's The Yards), it has one of the best sad happy endings I may have ever seen. If you're into that sort of thing, I mean. 

*Are spaces really enough there? It's one two three, after all, not one hundred and twenty three.

I don't know what reviews you read, but there are a lot of good reviews for Easy Virtue. It is a very funny movie Colin and Kristin are really good in this movie, so is the rest of the cast. For the amount of theaters it is on it is doing very well. So maybe you need to read some more reviews again.
