Opening April 27th:
The Raven
Fresh Rating: 21%
Director: James McTeigue
Cast: John Cusack, Luke Evans, Brendan Gleeson, Alice Eve
Synopsis: A fictionalized account of the last days of Edgar Allan Poe’s life, in which the poet pursues a serial killer whose murders mirror those in the writer’s stories. (IMDb)
Rotten Tomatoes Consensus Opinion: Thinly scripted, unevenly acted, and overall preposterous, The Raven disgraces the legacy of Edgar Allen Poe with a rote murder mystery that’s more silly than scary.

The Pirates! Band of Misfits
Fresh Rating: 86%
Director: Peter Lord, Jeff Newitt
Cast: Hugh Grant, Salma Hayek, Jeremy Piven, David Tennant
Synopsis: Pirate Captain sets out on a mission to defeat his rivals Black Bellamy and Cutlass Liz for the Pirate of the year Award. The quest takes Captain and his crew from the shores of Blood Island to the foggy streets of Victorian London.
Rotten Tomatoes Consensus Opinion: It may not quite scale Aardman’s customary delirious heights, but The Pirates! still represents some of the smartest, most skillfully animated fare that modern cinema has to offer.
