Leap Year: This romantic comedy stars Amy Adams as a woman on a mission; she is determined to travel to Dublin, Ireland and propose to her boyfriend (Adam Scott). Along the way, she makes the acquaintance of Matthew Goode. Love triangle? Indeed. The setup seems fairly predictable, but Adam Scott can be counted on to give a first-rate performance as a pompous jerk.

Nine: A big-screen adaptation of the Tony Award-winning musical of the same name. Daniel Day-Lewis (My Left Foot, There Will Be Blood, and perhaps half a dozen of the greatest onscreen performances of the past twenty years) stars as Guido Contini, a successful director experiencing something like a mid-life crisis. His angst is both aided and compounded by his relationships with the various women in his life, including: Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz, Judi Dench, Fergie, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman, and Sophia Loren. Reviews were mixed, but, again, Daniel Day-Lewis.
