News: Cheese in Theaters 12/23/11 Edition

My precious! It's going to be here soons it is!

Back to slim pickings in terms of new releases once again this week, but here we go.

                Albert Nobbs- 44%, Certified Rotten

                What the heck is it: A period drama set in 19^th century Ireland starring Glenn Close as a woman forced to dress as a man for some reason. Thirty years later, a new love threatens to reveal her secret to the world. Gasp!

                What critics said: "The result of [Close's] passion project? Getting to look like Bruce Jenner in a bowler and high starched collar." -Melissa Anderson, Village Voice

                Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close- 58%, Certified Rotten

                What the heck is it: A kid is convinced his dad, who died during the 9/11 attacks, has left a message hidden for him somewhere in New York City. Naturally, he sets out to find this message and embarks on some sort of life-altering journey of discovery. Tom Hanks and Sandra Bullock star, yet I’ve never heard of it so it must be awful.

                What critics said: "It more resembles a spindly kid running around and screaming for two hours before a hastily applied Hollywood ending shuts him up." -Grae Drake, Movies.com
