Preview

Coming to the big screen

These movies are scheduled to begin their Oahu run on Friday:

Bedazzled
(PG-13)
In this remake of the 1967 comedy, the devil, in the form of Elizabeth Hurley, promises a hapless nerd, played by Brendan Fraser, seven wishes in exchange for his soul.

Pay It Forward
(PG-13)
Kevin Spacey stars as a social studies teacher who, each fall, gives his new students the same do-gooder assignment: Dream up a way to improve the world. Trevor McKinney (Haley Joel Osment), the son of a single mom who's a closet boozer (Helen Hunt), comes up with the notion of paying good deeds forward.

The Legend of Drunken Master
(R)
Jackie Chan stars in this tale of a martial arts hero unlike any other. The Drunken Master can turn just one drink into devastation and humiliation for his enemies.
