The following is a preview of movies opening this weekend: Preview
"The Sum of All Fears" -- Ben Affleck takes over the Jack Ryan role Harrison Ford played in the two earlier Tom Clancy movie adaptations, "Patriot Games" and "Clear and Present Danger." In this film, Ryan is a CIA analyst who is dispatched to aid the former Soviet Union and uncovers a plot by a neo-Nazi Austrian billionaire to attack the Super Bowl with a nuclear weapon to reignite the Cold War between the two superpowers (PG-13).
"Undercover Brother" -- Eddie Griffin follows up his "The New Guy" role with a spy spoof based on an online animated series written by John Ridley ("Three Kings") and Michael McCullers ("Austin Powers in Goldmember"). Griffin is Brother, a secret agent with the largest Afro in the world drafted by the B.R.O.T.H.E.R.H.O.O.D. to rescue a black presidential candidate who has been brainwashed by, who else?, The Man and his flunky Mr. Feather (Chris Kattan). Partnered with Sistah Girl (Aunjanue Ellis), Brother infiltrates the enemy's lair only to encounter The Man's weapon, White She-Devil (Denise Richards). Directed by Spike Lee's cousin, Malcolm D. Lee (PG-13).
