It's nearly a week after the Oscars -- some big movies are expected theaters this weekend and -- about it right now know you are so get busy movie critic Kevin -- -- joins us with his review of Jack the giant slayer and other movies that are coming out this week great to be here I think.

Movies after the Oscars I don't think any time I doubt notes often with three of -- five days a year -- them so Jack the giant slayer what's the premise would you thing.

Brady retelling of the classic dot attack and being soft story we all know the story to buried Al Bryan singer's directing -- he he did the usual suspects -- best records out there working today the problem is the -- story does not connect to the human stories you leave the movie -- connecting with the human characters the action is fantastic at times but it reminded me avatar avatar with a beautiful visual I don't there was nothing they listen to nothing more than -- -- only Pocahontas and okay thank.

Yeah.

Well here's -- parents are going to be asking about this me included is this a good movie to take your kids and it has violent.

Elements there are there is definitely -- Stanley vibe and I would say no one under the age of twelve I think it I think it's a good like a movie for teenagers were sent me some not yet yeah.

More money because you like this but the 3-D in spending money on tickets.

This movie.

Is released in 3-D IMAX it does it does appear here in New York it's charging twenty dollars -- -- -- -- three BI and that it was not shot nymex the 3-D is not that great the depth of field as a war save yourself six dollars and -- fourteen bucks.

The interesting thing about this movie though is the most look at this video this -- the motion capture -- that the actor us.

-- -- index and the funny dots on her face it what's happening is those -- the giants so they'd take the character the actor they perform the character they digitally make the giant out of the human performance.

The human giants and the being more realistic than the actual human actors in the film -- in the movie in your mind should be rated out of the five stars you give it I give it to happen fighting the actions very mediocre skip it skip it in 3-D don't waste your money on the IMAX and make it regular two.

21 and over is that a good date for -- -- -- Then moving -- this is definitely for like B 1718 year old crowd this this is rough and the writers of the hangover.

And this is that the idea here is -- -- character named Jeff Chang he's turning 21 either huge medical exam the next day -- -- take -- out.

To get drunk obviously -- -- before and -- whole idea is getting him back.

To his house for the medical exam and honestly it is not.

I'm gonna make -- right on the hangover was great because you found out what happened the night before through clues that it was a good detective movie this is taking place tonight.

So -- very unpredictable and it's funny in the characters aren't as indeed how many stars I've given it to happen at five due within teenagers.

Don't take your parents to see -- believe -- huh.
