Now out on video....................
TRAFFIC
Steven Soderbergh (Erin Brockovich, Out of Sight) offers a look at the world of drug trafficking on both sides of the law, in an ensemble drama, with four storylines converging in the final act, that he has compared to Robert Altman's classic Nashville. At the story's center is Judge Robert Lewis (Douglas), who becomes the country's new drug czar even as his teenage daughter is fast becoming an addict herself.
SOMEONE LIKE YOU
After she gets dumped by her boyfriend (Greg Kinnear), TV producer Jane Goodale (Ashley Judd) reflects on her past love life. After some research, she presents an "old cow" theory that compares men to bulls in their tendency to be noncommital and roaming.
RECESS: SCHOOLS OUT
Based on the Saturday morning TV cartoon Disney's Recess, this animated feature follows six fourth graders from the Third Street School who follow their leader, T.J. Detweiler (Andrew Lawrence), as he tries to foil what he thinks is a plot by the school's former principal (James Woods) to eliminate summer vacations by using laser beams to create permanent winter.
THE WEDDING PLANNER
Jennifer Lopez stars as a workaholic wedding planner who is so busy planning other people's weddings that she doesn't have time for any love life of her own. Then she finds her perfect man: the fiancé of her current client (Matthew McConaughey).
SPY KIDS
Two children go undercover to rescue their secret agent parents (Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino), who are in imminent danger.
SAVE THE LAST DANCE
The girl next door falls for the boy from the wrong side of the tracks and of a different race. Julia Stiles (Ten Things I Hate About You, Down to You) plays a small-town gal with a yen for ballet. After her family moves to Chicago, she forges an unlikely romantic relationship with a classmate (Sean Patrick Thomas). He's got some funky dance moves of his own, but he doesn't need toe shoes to boogie.
BRIDGET JONES DIARY
Based on the best-selling book by Helen Fielding, this comedy chronicles a year in the life of a single, 30-something British woman (Zellweger) as she struggles with men, her weight, and her work in a publishing company. Zellweger is accompanied by British favorites Hugh Grant and Colin Firth, who play her love interests.
CHOCOLAT
After several successful years in Hollywood, Lasse Hallström (The Cider House Rules, What's Eating Gilbert Grape) returns to Europe with this slice of small-town life in 1950s France. Juliette Binoche plays a new-in-town single mother who gradually wins over the locals with the sweets in her chocolate shop. But these aren't your typical French townspeople. With Johnny Depp, Judi Dench, and Carrie-Anne Moss among the customers, this village has a distinctively global appeal.
MISS CONGENIALITY
Sandra Bullock stars as FBI agent Gracie, who assumes the guise of Miss New Jersey in the "Miss Liberty" pageant to prevent a terrorist group from bombing the event. Along the way, she crosses paths with Vic (Michael Caine), a flamboyant image consultant who uses Vaseline and duct tape to transform her into a contestant, and the pageant host (William Shatner) who has just learned that his days of crooning and crowning are numbered.
RUGRATS IN PARIS
In this sequel to the first Rugrats movie, the smart-mouthed toddlers and kiddies from the Nickelodeon show go to a dinosaur theme park in Paris.
DOWN TO EARTH
Struggling stand-up comic Lance Barton (Chris Rock) is hit by a bus and goes to heaven. Turns out it's not his time yet, but his organs have been donated, making it problematic to return to his own body. The chief angel (Chazz Palminteri) sends Lance to dwell in a "loaner" body until a better solution can be devised. Back on terra firma, Lance finds himself itching to get back in front of a microphone and falling in love with a crusading social activist (Regina King). The twist is that he's been deposited in the body of Robert Wellington, a cold-hearted, wealthy white industrialist.
GET OVER IT
Berke Lawrence (Ben Foster) is a high school senior who's just had his heart broken by his girlfriend (well, ex-girlfriend), Allison (Melissa Sagemiller). Trying to win her back, he quits the basketball team and instead tries out for a Shakespeare play. Suddenly, however, his best friend's little sister (Kirsten Dunst) catches his eye.
