The following is a preview of movies opening this weekend that runs every Tuesday in the Star-Bulletin: Preview
"Heist" -- "It's got what you'd expect from a (David) Mamet movie: it's got a con upon a con upon a con," said cast member Delroy Lindo about the director/screenwriter's followup to his Hollywood satire "State and Main," and a return to the Byzantine, hard-boiled plots he's made his name on. Gene Hackman stars as the world-weary leader of a posse of thieves who are forced by their fence (Danny DeVito) into one last job, stealing a haul of gold bullion. But not all of his partners (Lindo and Mamet mainstays Ricky Jay and Rebecca Pidgeon) are on the up-and-up. (R).
"Shallow Hal" -- The Farrelly brothers are back with the comedic tale of the shallowest person alive. Jack Black is Hal, a regular guy who vows to date only model-caliber beauties. He thinks he's found his perfect girl in Rosemary (Gwyneth Paltrow), actually an obese woman that Hal cannot see because he's so smitten by her "inner beauty" (PG-13).
