May Flicks

I don't attend many movies these days, but there are always some I look forward to seeing. This month there are two. A nice birthday present (mine is the 29th) comes out May 27, the latest from DreamWorks, Madagascar.

I'll probably wait a few days to go to what will undoubtedly be the summer's biggest film, for both attendance and gross, to avoid some of the crowds. It comes out this Thursday, May 19 and so far has gotten mostly positive reviews. Some critics, such as A. O. Scott in The New York Times, are calling it the best of the six movies in the series. The review by Roger Ebert is a good read. But even negative comments won't keep the hordes away from Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith.
