opening films HANSEL AND GRETEL
Hansel (Jeremy Renner) and Gretel (Gemma Arterton) leave behind the innocence of a broken childhood to start life as vigilantes of revenge. Now, the bloodthirsty pair must deal with the haunting legacy of their youth while hacking down the witches who stalk them. In the end, though, Hansel and Gretel shines forth as another example of Hollywood’s macabre obsession with reworking children’s fairy tales into action flicks. Bonus: You get to see some heavy crossbow and shotgun action in glorious 3-D. (SM) Rated R
PARKER
Jason Statham once again takes the role of a beautifully foreign, terribly misunderstood and incredibly sexy professional thief who must navigate the tricky world of a for-hire criminal. Parker (Statham)

Hansel and Gretel
accepts a job with an unfamiliar crew, only to be double-crossed by the leader. Though the role of Parker is nothing new for the actor, we can look forward to another movie full of Statham frolicking in well-tailored suits. (SM) Rated R
MOVIE 43
Kids these days seem to have a penchant for anything taboo. This film follows the journey of three youths bent on finding the most banned movie in the world. The 12 storylines, each produced by a different director, go deep into the dark, dusty depths of the Internet on the quest for the worst of the worst. This comedy assembles one of the largest masses of talent in the industry, featuring actors such as Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Emma Stone, Gerard Butler, Kate Winslet, Elizabeth Banks and many more.

BROKEN CITY
Is Mark Wahlberg the next big name in action flicks? Well, if he quits appearing in horrible movies with talking bears, that’s likely to happen, as evidenced by this film in which he plays a cop who is asked by the mayor to snoop on the mayor’s wife. Well, then that wife’s lover ends up dead and he’s framed for the murder. Tune in to
see how Marky Mark gets out of this one. (MB) Rated R
DJANGO UNCHAINED
Seems about time for Quentin Tarantino to conquer a Western movie — seeing that he’s already done a heist flick, some samurai films, a blaxploitation homage and a war movie. Django Unchained tracks a slave (Jamie Foxx) who is promised freedom by a bounty hunter (Christoph Waltz) in exchange for helping find a pair of criminals. They also rumble with a rich Frenchie (Leonardo DiCaprio) who owns Django’s wife now. (LS) Rated R
