Friday September 11th Movie of the week + New Releases

This week had 2 release days, 09.09.09 and today 11.09.09. Very mixed bag of movies this week and I know people may not agree with my movie choice of the week, Ive went for Whiteout. Its my choice, but everyone has there own preferences to what they like in movies so you choose your own movie. Many of you probably thought I would have went for Adventureland but Ive already seen this, but September is seen as the start of the period when the big movies come to end before they go into a quieter period before the big Christmas blockbusters start hitting us.
