Also in Theaters This Weekend

By Staff Reporter of The Sun | June 8, 2007

HOSTEL PART II
R, 94 minutes

Just a year after "Hostel" scared audiences just enough to pay for a sequel, director Eli Roth returns with another tale of captivity and terror. Three young American girls studying in Rome set off for a weekend trip when they run into a model from one of their art classes. Also on her way to an exotic destination, the gorgeous European invites the coeds to tag along, assuring them they will be able to relax and rejuvenate. Will the girls find the oasis they are looking for? Or are they poised to become victims for hire, pawns in the fantasies of the sick and privileged from around the world who secretly travel here to savor more grisly pursuits? What do you think?

SURF'S UP
PG, 85 minutes

In still another computer-animated penguin comedy (this time from Sony), Cody Maverick (Shia LeBeouf ) is an amateur when it comes to surfing, but he believes he's got what it takes to be a superstar. With a little help from surfing legend Big Z (Jeff Bridges) and some encouragement from lifeguard Lani (Zooey Deschanel), there may be hope for this tuxedo-clad wave rider after all. An all-star cast of voices, including James Woods, Michael McKean, Jon Heder, and Mario Cantone lend their talents to this family-friendly tale.
