The 2013 Winter Movie Season Preview

Ok, boys and girls. The Holiday Season is over… and the Spring Season, full of mini Blockbusters, is still months away.

Between now and then lies Hollywood’s dumping ground. The Hollywood fields lie fallow in the winter, bearing little quality product. It’s the two months of the year we need to “Get through”. While January typically offers some limited releases from the prior year going wide, there’s typically little else to get excited over.

Will this year be different? Are there any movies to get excited about these next two months? Let’s take a look at the release slate and see what we’ve got!

Now Showing on Cable: “A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas”

Making its unseasonal debut on HBO this weekend was “A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas”.

John Cho and Kal Penn reprise their roles as the stoner duo Harold Lee and Kumar Patel, only this time, things have changed. Harold is a successful, married homeowner, while Kumar… hasn’t changed a single bit. In fact, it’s safe to say he’s barely even moved. When Kumar stops by Harold’s house on Christmas Eve, a comedy of errors ensues that finds the two up to their eyeballs in drugs and danger.

It’s crass and crude (occasionally really crass and crude), but certainly has its share of funny, irreverent humor.

American Reunion

The American Pie gang is back.

With (roughly) ten years having passed since the first movies, the cast from the American Pie trilogy has a perfect excuse to return with a fourth installment – the high school reunion. “American Reunion” brings all the old classmates back in to town to reconnect and reminisce for a weekend. Of course they bring new problems with them that they didnt have in high school, seeing as they’re older… Marriage, children, careers, etc. Yet put them all together and they find a way to fall right back into their familiar rhythms and drunken sex antics.

Surprisingly though, “American Reunion” was a really well done comedy, with the added bonus of getting to spend time with old familiar, characters. It all added up to be highly enjoyable…

Just like warm apple pie.
