Eight Below

With Paul Walker, Jason Biggs, Bruce Greenwood, 4-legged ones

Entertainment: 3.5 Message: 4

Inspired by the events of a 1957 Japanese expedition into Antarctica, this gripping story of friendship and faith transcends time, extreme challenges and species, and will delight all generations. Sure, it’s Disney (a few scenes are a bit sensibility-impaired),but a team of amazing sled dogs steal the show and will likely steal your heart as well. The true stars here are these stranded canine actors, fighting for their survival through the grueling Antarctic winter. If you enjoy adventure and arctic nature scenes, check it out! (1 hr 52 min).

Elektra

Much to our surprise – expecting total trash – we actually enjoyed this film. There’s something fun about an assassin in Victoria’s Secret lingerie (1 hr 32 min).
