November 2
  • Shrek Delightful story about the adventures of an odious ogre, Shrek (Mike Myers), who is definitely not the hero of your run-of-the-mill fairy tales: he's got bad breath, he's green and ornery, and he just wants to be left alone. His warm, isolated swamp becomes overrun by a host of fairy tale creatures -- blind mice, pigs, a wooden boy with a long nose, a big, bad wolf (DreamWorks' spoof on Disney) --banished from an antiseptic kingdom by a pint-sized king (John Lithgow). To get his swamp back, Shrek teams up with a talking donkey (Eddie Murphy) to rescue a princess (Cameron Diaz) from a fire-breathing dragon. Somewhere along the line there's love and revenge (as in most fairy tales) and plenty of satire and just plain fun. Director: Andrew Adamson, Vicky Jenson. Voices of Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, John Lithgow, Vincent Cassel. 2001, CC, MPAA rating: PG, 85 min., Animated, Box office gross: $265 million, DreamWorks, $15.95 minimum advertised VHS SRP.

  • crazy/beautiful Run-of-the-mill teen romance tries to spice up the age-old wrong-sides-of-the-track love affair with a modern tone, music and dancing but just succeeds in being ho-hum.

  • Osmosis Jones Combination live-action and CGI bodily function comedy that sinks to new lows, so to speak. Osmosis Jones is an Alka Seltzer commercial come to life, with its story existing in two realms: the real world of junk-food addict Frank (Bill Murray) and the interior, CGI-created world inside his body. The action is officially kicked off when Frank eats a hard-boiled egg that has landed on the ground, gulping down with it a good dose of an evil virus. Thrax the virus rides the egg into Downtown Frank, where he's chased by Osmosis Jones, a member of the Immunity Police. There's an entire city inside Frank, with an election, wannabe cops and red blood cell girl friends. It's oh so clever in its execution as the film jumps back and forth between the two worlds, but the heavy-handed humor consistently falls flat (like an Alka Seltzer left in a class of water for too long) in both universes. Director: Peter and Bobby Farrelly. Stars: Bill Murray, Elena Franklin, Molly Shannon; voices of Laurence Fishburne, Chris Rock, David Hyde Pierce, Brandy Norwood, William Shatner. 2001, CC, MPAA rating: PG, 98 min., Comedy, Box office gross: $14 million, Warner, $22.96 VHS SRP.

  • Bride of the Wind Sensual saga of a woman for whom genius was the ultimate aphrodisiac. Like moths to a flame, some of the greatest talents of turn-of-the-century Europe were drawn to Alma (Alma Schindler-Mahler-Gropius-Werfel) (played by newcomer Sarah Wynter), a remarkable muse who ignited desire that would translate into masterpieces of art, music and literature.

November 20
  • Planet of the Apes Tim Burton's reimagining of the 1968 "Planet of the Apes" is not the breathtaking tour-de-force that fans of the director -- and the series -- expected, but it still stands as a fine cinematic accomplishment in its own right. If there had been no original, this film would certainly be applauded but, alas, there is that first one and we'll always carry that version in our mind (kind of like our first boyfriend or girlfriend -- we can never shake the beauty of that first encounter). This remake loosely follows the original, with some extra twists and turns (including the ending) and some delightful, typically Burtonesque flourishes along the way.

Stars: Jim Carrey, Taylor Momsen, Jeffrey Tambor, Christine Baranski, Molly Shannon, Bill Irwin, Clint Howard, Anthony Hopkins. 2000, CC, MPAA rating: PG, 105 min., Family, Box office gross: $260 million, Universal, $24.98 VHS SRP.
