New in theaters today is a diverse group of movies – everything from covert guinea pigs to lovelorn reporters to the creepiest of orphans. Take a look, and let me know what YOU plan on seeing this weekend!

G-Force (PG). This cute, action-packed family movie brings new meaning to the term "trained animals." Guinea pigs are working undercover with the latest spy equipment to restore order to the world. [Trailer] [Nic Cage and Tracy Morgan] [Official Site]

Opening in theaters on July 24, 2009 is "The Ugly Truth," an adorable romantic comedy starring Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler. It’s about a chauvinistic reporter who gets involved with a romantically challenged morning show producer.

Robert Luketic is the director; he’s also directed "21," "Monster-in-Law," "Legally Blonde," and "Win a Date with Tad Hamilton." So he’s definitely got the romantic comedy chops to produce a great movie.

"The Ugly Truth" premiered in Hollywood on July 16, 2009. Watch the trailer here, and check out a few pics from the red carpet below!

New TV Spot for The Ugly Truth

Jane Boursaw — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 00:19:00 +0000

Whenever I think of Gerard Butler, I automatically think of him being all intense and toga-ish as King Leonidas in "300," but he can hold his own in a romantic movie, as evidenced in "P.S. I Love You" and "Nim’s Island."

He’s the perfect foil for Katherine Heigl in “The Ugly Truth,” a romantic comedy about a chauvinistic reporter who gets involved with a romantically challenged morning show producer.

Directed by Robert Luketic, the movie is rated R for sexual content and language, and hits theaters July 24, 2009. Check out the trailers here and here, and watch the latest TV spot below.

Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl share a romantic kiss

Jane Boursaw — Mon, 04 May 2009 05:51:19 +0000

Movie stars Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl shared a romantic kiss recently on their set of their new movie "Five Killers." Directed by Robert Luketic, the story follows a woman who meets her "perfect" man while on vacation. The two get married but quickly realize that their neighbors back home might be assassins hired to kill the happy couple. Tom Selleck, Martin Mull, and Catherine O’Hara also star in the movie, set for a June 4, 2010 release.

Oh, and don’t worry. Accompanying Heigl and Kutcher to the French Riviera set were their spouses, so I’m sure there were no offset shenanigans taking place. And if I was a body language expert, I’d say she’s way more into this kiss than he is.

The Ugly Truth – Trailer & Preview

Jane Boursaw — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 05:58:00 +0000

Adorable Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler star in “The Ugly Truth,” a romantic comedy about a chauvinistic reporter who gets involved with a romantically challenged morning show producer. I like both of these actors, so I’m hoping they make some sparks onscreen (even though I can’t help but think of him as King Leonidas in the very non-romantic 300).

Directed by Robert Luketic, the movie snagged an R rating for sexual content and language, and hits theaters July 24, 2009. Check out the trailer and see what you think…

“The Ugly Truth” Trailer

Jane Boursaw — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 04:20:44 +0000

I’m such a sucker for romantic comedies, and the good ones can be so fun and uplifting. Plus, I really like Katherine Heigl, and we’ll see how much chemistry she has with Gerard Butler in “The Ugly Truth.”

Heigl stars as a romantically challenged morning show producer who’s reluctantly embroiled in a series of outrageous tests by her chauvinistic correspondent (Butler). I keep thinking this is a remake of an old classic movie. Where’s my classic movie buffs out there?

See what you think of the trailer. Looks fun, doesn’t it?
