This week in theaters, you won’t find a whole lot of 2012 Oscar contenders. You will, however, find Nicolas Cage in 3D.
New This Week:
Drive Angry 3D
Hall Pass
The Grace Card
Of Gods and Men (limited)
Heartbeats (limited)
Kristin’s Pick of the Week:
Judging from the trailers, Drive Angry looks like an over-the-top grindhouse-style adventure—in 3D. But with Nic Cage in the lead, it could be ridiculously entertaining—so I’ll give it my pick this week.
Also in Theaters:
Unknown
I Am Number Four
Just Go with It
The Eagle
The Company Men
The Mechanic
The Green Hornet
Blue Valentine
The King’s Speech
True Grit

Kristin Dreyer Kramer has been writing in some form or another (usually when she was supposed to be doing something else) since the ripe old age of ten—when she, her cousin, and their two Cabbage Patch Dolls formed the Poo Authors’ Club. After a short career in advertising, Kristin got sick of always saying nice things about stuff that didn’t deserve it—so now she spends her days criticizing things, and she’s much happier for it.
Since creating NightsAndWeekends.com in February of 2002, Kristin has spent her life surrounded by piles and piles of books and movies—so many that her office has become a kind of entertainment obstacle course.
As if her writing and editing responsibilities for N&W.com weren’t enough to keep her out of trouble, Kristin also hosts a number of weekly radio shows: Reel Discovery, Shelf Discovery, and On the Marquee. She’s also a proud member of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (CriticsChoice.com), the Central Ohio Film Critics Association (COFCA.org), the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS.org), and the Women Film Critics Circle (WFCC.Wordpress.com).
Kristin lives in Columbus, Ohio, with her husband, Paul, and their daughter, Anna. She welcomes questions, comments, and fan mail at kdk@nightsandweekends.com.
