Nov | Dec | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May | Jun

Director: Keenen Ivory Wayans
Stars: Shawn Wayans, Marlon Wayans, Kerry Washington (Full Cast)
Studio: Revolution Studios

The Plot: A wannabe dad (Shawn Wayans) and mom (Washington) are duped by a short, baby-faced criminal (Marlon Wayans) on the lam as his newly adopted son.

THE BUZZ: Even if the Wayans's sort of comedy isn't your thing, you can't deny the glee with which their audience anticipates their every move. And this isn't a niche crowd, either; the near-universally dismissed White Chicks made $70 million at the box office alone. But it appears as though they've gone from high-concept gross-out comedy to just ... gross ... with this one.

THE BUZZ: With the Russo brothers behind the cameras, and three of the most likeable stars you can imagine, Dupree wants to be this year's Wedding Crashers. But why does the trailer come off as a grown-up version of An American Pie? Might as well call this Stifler Moves In.

Edmond [limited]

Director: Stuart Gordon
Stars: William H. Macy, Julia Stiles, Joe Mantegna (Full Cast)
Studio: First Independent Pictures

The Plot: A fortune-teller's rumination sends Edmond Burke (Macy) lurching into New York City's underbelly, where his tentative connection with a waitress (Stiles) ultimately brings out his dark nature.

THE BUZZ: You'd think a David Mamet play in the hands of cult director Stuart Gordon would generate considerable hype, but we really haven't heard an anti-social peep from Edmond since its premiere at the Venice Film Festival last year. And neither William H. Macy nor Julia Stiles is out on the publicity trail; maybe that's the best way to not spoil what happens to Ms. Stiles' character. But for those of you who have longed to see Macy in the nude (again, if you missed The Cooler), here's your chance ...

The Oh in Ohio [LA/NY]

Director: Billy Kent
Stars: Parker Posey, Paul Rudd, Danny DeVito (Full Cast)
Studio: Cyan Pictures

The Plot: Frustrated by the fact that he's never given his wife, Priscilla (Posey), an orgasm, Jack (Rudd) moves out of their home, and into a relationship with his comely student (Mischa Barton). Though Priscilla first turns her attention to a battery-operated lover, she finds an unlikely partner in Wayne (DeVito), a chunky businessman more than twice her age.

THE BUZZ: Unless it gets swallowed up by blockbusters and higher-profile indies, this stealth sex comedy should go into wider and wider release as the summer picks up. We hear Posey's physical comedy is aces, Rudd's brooding is unparalleled, and DeVito doesn't plays it as hammy as you'd expect. Liza Minnelli locks down another bizarro role as a sex guru, while Heather Graham goes uncredited as a clerk who gets Parker P. hooked on the buzz.

The Groomsmen [LA/NY]

Director: Edward Burns
Stars: Edward Burns, Matthew Lillard, Brittany Murphy (Full Cast)
Studio: Vivendi Entertainment

The Plot: A groom (Ed Burns) and his four attendants wrestle with issues related to friendship and maturity a week before the big day.

THE BUZZ: Strip the Irish Catholicism from The Brothers McMullen, center the story on a more townie version of Barry McMullen, and presto ... Ed Burns has a new film. "We need to rock one more time before you walk down the aisle." Stale popcorn; even VH1 is fresher.

Mini's First Time [limited]

Director: Nick Guthe
Stars: Alec Baldwin, Nikki Reed, Carrie-Anne Moss (Full Cast)
Studio: Home Box Office Home Video (HBO)

The Plot: Life takes a debaucherous twist for Mini (Reed), an 18-year-old bombshell with a penchant for trying new things, when she takes up prostitution. When her stepfather (Baldwin) becomes her first client, the duo plot against Mimi's mother (Moss) to avoid various repercussions, though their actions attract an investigator (Luke Wilson) who might just topple their house of cards.

Mini's First Time (2006) -- Moviesbox.us - Trailer (Flash)

THE BUZZ: Flying way below the radar, don't expect Mini to create anywhere near the amount of controversy Hard Candy whipped up. Maybe we're just getting old, but black comedies such as this don't have the same taste they used to. More than anything, this looks like a giant sidestep for everyone involved, especially Nikki Reed, who should maybe focus on diversifying herself a bit.
