What's Playing? 11/26 Weekend



***

This weekend in theatres is filled with fun looking films (with the exception of the historical The King's Speech about King George VI).
Burlesque (I'll let the title speak for itself) starring singer/actress Cher and singer turned actress Christina Aguilera looks so much fun and is my top pick.
Tangled, Disney's version of the tale of Rapunzel, with Mandy Moore voicing the long haired maiden looks cute and funny.
"The Rock" Dwayne Johnson stars in the action Faster, that looks cliched but is guaranteed a good popcorn flick. 
The Nutcracker in 3D about the Christmas story of the Nutcracker looks fun.
The based on true events, The King's Speech doesn't sound interesting by the plot, but the trailer makes it out to look very interesting and even funny.
The movie I recommend last is the romantic comedy Love & Other Drugs. It looks unexciting and unfunny.
