MOLIERE (dir: Laurent
Tirard, PG-13) – Rather than giving the French playwright a standard
bio-pic, director Laurent Tirard decides to speculate about what

SAW IV (dir: Darren Lynn
Bousman, Unrated) – If you haven't yet copped to the subtle charms of this torture porn series there's probably no reason to start now. Except for the exciting return from acting exile of Costas
