NOTE: In a revival of this "classic" Friday feature, Courier-News reporter Mike Danahey guesses how much beer (or other beverage of choice) it might take him to pay money to see a recently-released movie. His opinions are based on trailers, ads and advance hype.
Here's a few of the movies playing this weekend...
Battle: Los Angeles
Did they make a Rage Against the Machine album into a movie? Nah. It's just another amped up version of "War of the Worlds," the kind you'll hear three screens over at the cineplex.
Beer rating: Looks like more of a Red Bull kind of movie.
Red Riding Hood, after the jump.
Red Riding Hood
Seriously? A horror movie based on the creepy children's story? What's next, "The Three Little Pigs?" "Hansel and Gretel" would be even freakier.
Beer rating: Some Blue Moon and tomato juice.
WHAT?! You were looking for a REAL movie review? Our Sun-Times Media colleague Roger Ebert at the Chicago Sun-Times does a swell job at that.
