CONTINUING
As a scary movie "Anaconda" is no more than middling. But if you look at it as a parody, you might find it howlingly funny. It's snake-bit by badness, which is the only thing that makes it tolerable. (PG-13) At Kapolei, Pearlridge West
Man of Mystery
Mike Myers plays both British secret agent Austin Powers and his arch-rival Dr. Evil. The two have been in a deep freeze for 30 years and when they emerge, must not only deal with each other, but also with being hopelessly out of date. Director Jay Roach's farce is simply groovy. (PG-13) At Cinerama, Kapolei, Keolu, Mililani, Pearl Highlands, Pearlridge West, Restaurant Row
Kurt Russell plays an average man battling malevolent strangers who have kidnapped his wife. Exhausting, terrifying movie brings to the screen your worst fears and nightmares. (R) At Enchanted Lake, Kapolei, Nanakuli, Pearlridge West, Restaurant Row, Waikiki 2
A smart, heartfelt romantic comedy/drama about girl trouble, boy trouble, and every imaginable trouble in between. Stars Ben Affleck and Jason Lee. (R) At Varsity
Robin Williams and Billy Crystal play two guys searching for a mutual former girlfriend's runaway son. Each thinks he's the father, of course, and if it sounds like another remake of a French farce, it is. (PG-13) At Enchanted Lake, Kahala, Kam Drive-In, Kapolei, Pearl Highlands, Pearlridge West, Restaurant Row
High-gloss, imaginative looks and almost no story values distinguish this movie in which Bruce Willis stars as a cab driver who gets involved in some futuristic war between good and evil. (PG-13) At Aikahi, Enchanted Lake, Kapolei, Koko Marina, Laie, Mililani, Pearlridge West, Restaurant Row, Waikiki 1
Set in 16th-century India and played in English, the film takes its title from the Hindu lovemaking manual. It follows the story of a servant girl whose sexual prowess ensnares a king. But the sex is actually tame and the plot is both too vague to be an instructive moral fable. (R) At Varsity
Jim Carrey plays a scummy lawyer forced to tell the truth for 24 hours. As usual, Carrey and his facial and bodily contortions make up the whole show. (PG-13) At Kahala, Kapolei, Pearlridge West
This Sidney Lumet movie is a tough, dramatically effective probing of moral issues. Andy Garcia plays an assistant district attorney faced with difficult questions of justice and personal loyalty. (R) At Kahala, Kapolei, Keolu, Restaurant Row
A powerful, if occasionally heavy-handed movie about a group of European, Australian and American women, imprisoned in a Japanese camp on Sumatra during World War II, who form what they call call a vocal orchestra to keep their spirits up. (R) At Pearl Highlands
School Reunion
Mira Sorvino and Lisa Kudrow's inspired acting as two adorable ditzes is the best part of this farce. They play two women who misrepresent their post-graduate lives at their high school reunion, which they attend in a borrowed Jaguar. (R) At Kahala, Kailua
Silly but well-executed basketball comedy features Kadeem Hardison as a young basketball star who returns as a ghost after his death to help brother Marlon Wayans and his team to a tournament championship. (PG-13) At Pearlridge West
With its dreadful sense of imminent violence, This Southern Gothic is eccentric moviemaking at its most spectacular and gratifying. Director/
actor Billy Bob Thornton received an Oscar for the screenplay. (R) At Pearl Highlands
This sweet comedy rather too schematically and almost too innocuously matches up a naughty couple and a nice one, taking a long time arriving at a pretty obvious destination. Stars Tisha Campbell, Paula Jai Parker, Rusty Cundieff and Joe Torry. (R) At Kailua, Kapolei, Pearlridge West
The stunts and special effects in this movie about a volcano in downtown Los Angeles are quite convincing, but the picture never generates true excitement, because the characters are merely functions and the format is time-worn, hokey disaster film. (PG-13) At Kapolei, Pearlridge West
In this formula action fantasy, a teen-age boy stumbles into a strange world to help five kung fu kangaroos battle an evil warlord, Komodo, finding his own warrior virtues along the way. (PG) At Pearl Highlands
