MOVIE PREVIEW
Opening Friday
"American Dreamz": Director Paul Weitz's satire takes on what he calls "the frenzy of imbecility in our celebrity culture." A TV singing contest's popularity is so great that the president decides to sign up as a guest judge for the season finale. Two of the finalists include a conniving steel magnolia with a devoted, dopey veteran boyfriend and a bumbling, show-tune-singing, would-be terrorist awaiting activation. Dennis Quaid (pictured, left) and Hugh Grant star, with Mandy Moore and newcomer Sam Golzari. (PG-13)
"The Sentinel": "24's" Kiefer Sutherland is protecting the president again, this time by hunting down a suspected Secret Service mole (Michael Douglas), who claims he is being framed. Kim Basinger and Eva Longoria co-star. (PG-13)
"Silent Hill": Yet another video game adaptation, this one features a woman (Radha Mitchell) looking for her missing daughter in an abandoned town inhabited by strange creatures from an alternate dimension. (R)
