Body of Lies (R, 128 minutes) Dude-tastic director Ridley Scott’s dude-heavy drama, based on the 2007 novel by David Ignatius, of a couple of CIA dudes (Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe) trying to out-dude a terrorist network and maybe each other. Playing at Regal Seminole Square 4

The Duchess (PG-13, 105 minutes) Who’s cheating whom? Keira Knightley stays classy and frilly in this period drama about the Duchess of Devonshire, who answers her husband’s promiscuity with an affair of her own. That’ll end well. Playing at Regal Downtown Mall 6

Eagle Eye (PG-13, 118 minutes) Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan follow the bidding of a voice over the phone. Why? You’ll find out. Playing at Regal Downtown Mall 6

The Express (PG, 129 minutes) Director Gary Fleder’s film could be just another college-football drama, except it’s about Ernie Davis (Rob Brown), the first black man to win the Heisman Trophy. Dennis Quaid plays the coach. Playing at Regal Seminole Square 4

The Haunting of Molly Hartley (PG-13, 86 minutes) The new girl in town (Haley Bennett) has a dark secret: bad parenting. No, we mean really bad; they made a pact with the devil, who now wants what’s owed to him. Directed, in his debut, by Broken Hearts Club producer Mickey Liddell. Opening Friday

Max Payne (PG-13, 100 minutes) After fining his family murdered, a rogue cop (Mark Wahlberg) descends into a nocturnal underworld on a quest for revenge. Yes, it’s based on a video game, but the concept is, well, timeless, really. Playing at Regal Seminole Square 4

Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist (PG-13, 90 minutes) Michael Cera and Kat Dennings play two cute proto-hipster high schoolers—apparently no relation whatsoever to Nick and Nora Charles of the Thin Man movies of the ’30s—who hang out all night in New York and go to shows and get into each other.

Pride and Glory (R, 129 minutes) Edward Norton, Colin Farrell and Jon Voight star in what is probably a cookie-cutter New York City family/cop drama of tested loyalties. But you know you want to see because of who’s in it. Read C-VILLE’s full reivew here. Playing at Carmike Cinema 6

Quarantine (R, 92 minutes) This horror remake takes its lead from The Blair Witch Project, as a news crew is quarantined inside a building while covering a story and, presumably, terrorized. The only evidence of their disappearance is their footage. Playing at Regal Downtown Mall 6

Religulous (R, 101 minutes) Various faiths get the “Politically Incorrect” treatment courtesy of Bill Maher. Larry Charles, the veteran “Seinfeld” writer and Borat director, runs the show. Playing at Vinegar Hill Theatre

Saw V (R, 95 minutes) Don’t you kinda wish for a franchise crossover between these torture-porn horror flicks and the High School Musical movies? This one was directed by the guy who was the production designer on the other Saw movies, so it’s in, well, hands. Playing at Carmike Cinema 6

Sex Drive
(R, 109 minutes) A teen road-trip sex comedy. Or maybe a teen sex-trip road comedy. See, it works on many levels. Josh Zuckerman plays a virgin donut-shop worker who drives 500 miles to score, he hopes, with a dream girl he met on line. Playing at Carmike Cinema 6

W. (PG-13, 110 minutes) Why, it’s never too soon for a new dispatch from American cinema’s unauthorized presidential biographer, Oliver Stone! This one surveys the outgoing POTUS’ life, with Josh Brolin, James Cromwell and Ellen Burstyn as George W., George H.W. and Barbara Bush, respectively. Also featuring Richard Dreyfuss as Dick Cheney, Toby Jones as Karl Rove, and many more. Don’t misunderestimate it. Playing at Regal Downtown Mall 6

Zack and Miri Make a Porno (R, 101 Minutes) Remember when people said “porno” instead of “porn”? Ah, simpler days. Kevin Smith remembers, and his new comedy stars Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks as platonic pals who get into the adult entertainment business, and maybe into each other’s hearts. And pants? Opening Friday
