Salt (Unrated)
	There's an unrated cut and a director's cut on top of the theatrical cut. I guess they are trying really hard to get you to buy this in order to make turning it into a franchise feasible. Personally I'd love to see where they take this character, but I won't be rushing out to buy this one in order to see it happen.

Easy A
	I'm kicking myself for not requesting a review copy of this one. I was in Toronto when it screened and never made it to the theaters to see it for myself. I have already added it to my Netflix queue, but I also just shot off a late request for a review copy so hopefully it will come through. I have heard plenty of good word of mouth for Easy A and Emma Stone so I'm hoping it holds up to what people have been saying.

Devil
	This one I also missed while in Toronto, but I already watched and reviewed the Blu-ray (read that here). However, there wasn't much to review and the film itself is pretty much a rental, though a decent watch as long as you know what you're in for.

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
	I saw this one in Cannes and while I enjoyed it I haven't had any desire to return to it. If I want Gordon Gekko I'll take him as I want to remember him, as the character that won Michael Douglas a Best Actor Oscar back in 1987. There is an option, though, to buy both Money Never Sleeps and the original on DVD for only $21.99 at Amazon. Not a bad price… hit the button below for more.

Step Up 3
	I really enjoyed the second Step Up movie, but this one was pretty much bad all around.
