Keri Russell (remember her from Felicity?) stars as a waitress who is trying to save enough money to get out of dodge and away from her husband. 
Lindsay Lohan’s latest release was a failure at the box office, but that’s the video is for. She plays Aubrey, who is abducted, is found, but as a different person.
John Travolta plays the mother (yes, the mother, not the father) of a girl with huge hair and similarly big dreams. Tracy Turnblad (Nikki Blonsky) dreams of being in the dance show, “The Corny Collins Show”. The movie stars Michelle Pfeiffer, Queen Latifah, Christopher Walken, Zac Effron, and Brittney Snow. It was adapted from the 2002 musical of the same name, which too was adapted from the 1998 John Waters film.
It’s the third film in the Shrek series, and this time, Shrek has to find the rightful heir to the throne in the land of Far, Far Away. The regulars are back including Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, Eddie Murphy, and Antonio Banderas, and Justin Timberlake joins them for this one. 
Kevin James and Adam Sandler are best buddies who have to pose as domestic partners. Jessica Biel also stars in the Dennis Duggan directed comedy. 
Michael Moore’s latest documentary is about the American health care system and how, in his research, it’s not as much about the health care, as it is about the benjamins.
Mandy Moore and Robin Williams star in this PG-13 rated comedy slash romance film. The story surrounds a newly engaged couple who have to pass the Reverend’s marriage test in order to get married. 
Kevin Costner starts as a man living a double life. On one hand, he’s a loving family man, and on the other, he’s a serial killer so secretive and clever, that no one has figured him out. Directed by Bruce A. Evans, and also starring Demi Moore, William Hurt, and Dane Cook, this suspense picture grossed just under $30 million at the box office.
Directed by Michael Bay, Transformers was one of the hottest movies of the summer. At $317 million currently, it’s the third highest grossing film of 2007 and already in the top 20 of all time. Starring Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox, the story of the Autobots and Decepticons is finally told in live action. 
Steve Carell wants the world to change. Enter God (Morgan Freeman). Led by the direction of Tom Shadyac, Evan Almighty crossed the $100 million mark earlier this year in the theaters. John Goodman and Wanda Sykes also co-star in the comedy.
Directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, 28 Weeks Later is the sequel to the horror film 28 Days Later. The film comes 5 years after the original film which was directed by Danny Boyle, who couldn’t direct the sequel because of a prior commitment. The film follows the first, which was based on a virus called “The Rage” that made people mindlessly violent. In the sequel, the US Army declares that the war against the virus has been won, but they are wrong, and it’s deadlier than ever.
