The anxiety-ridden clownfish on a mission to find his son is one you can see over and over again, and now especially in 3D. Finding Nemo 3D brings in an estimated $10 million at the box office.
Milla Jovovich is back as Alice the bad-a** lady with the big gun. This is the fifth installment in the sci-fi/horror/action series, and audiences keep wanting more. And when it’s a chick kicking butt, why not?

The Master
SheKnows Oscar hopeful pick!
The Oscar-buzz drama starring Philip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix has critics raving. When a vet returns home without a life plan, he becomes enchanted by a new movement of faith-based origins.
Sam Raimi’s horror flick about a girl who finds a possessed box at a garage sale was number one at the box office two weeks in a row. If you’re not ready for Halloween, this fright flick will be sure to get you in the mood.
The hot guy, hot booze action flick about Prohibition is violent and bloody. We love the faces, but the film itself is a bit of an eyeful. Go in carefully on this one. Lawless stars Tom Hardy, Shia LeBeouf and Guy Pearce.
On the top of our list for hot guy films this year, The Bourne Legacy stars Jeremy Renner as the newest Treadstone operative on the run. Buh-bye Matt Damon. Hello hot shirtless spy who globetrots with beautiful Rachel Weisz.

I really want to see Lawless, I loved Boardwalk Empire, and this looks like a beefed up, star-studded version of that. Can't wait! There are so many great movies coming out!!
