(With their 'True Grit' plus 'Tron: Legacy' and 'Hereafter' Matt Damon and Jeff Bridges, two of the hardest working and best actors in the industry look to dominate the fall.
...there's a lot to look forward to including the birth of 'Due Date' a road trip comedy starring Robert Downey Jnr and Zach Galifiankis (or as he's more affectionately known Alan from 'The Hangover') the movie directed by hungover director Todd Phillips also stars Downey Jnr's 'Soloist' co-star Jamie Foxx and looks like this generations 'Planes Trains & Automobiles'...
...speaking of trains, hit movies about to arrive don't just stop there with the release of 'Unstoppable'. A high octane action, thriller from Tony Scott and Denzel Washington, who last collaborated on another 'Training Day' with The Taking Of Pelham 123'. The movie is about an unmanned train which wont stop, is full of deadly chemicals and is heading towards everything in it's path. 'Star Treks' Chris Pine and Rosario Dawson also star...
...if that's not enough danger you could always risk 'Jackass 3D' were Johnny Knoxville and co again defy death and permanent injury to bring you even closer to wild stunts and glorious stupidity, this time in stunning 3D...
...if that isn't eye catching enough why not try the computer animated 'Megamind' from Dreamworks that stars Will Ferrell and Brad Pitt, the mere thought of this is hilarious...
...and if that isn't out of this world enough for you maybe you should look to the 'Skyline'. The latest alien movie, which to be honest looks part 'Independence Day' part 'Mars Attacks'...
...still if you want to go beyond that you could try 'Hereafter'. This supernatural thriller contacts the dead in more ways than 'The Sixth Sense' did. Plus it marks the second collaboration between legendary director Clint Eastwood and front running, leading man, Matt Damon. Who previously won the world with the classic 'Inviticus'. This new duo look so good together, you'll wish they'll make movies forever more...
...over the next few months you should also check out 'The Next Three Days', the latest Russell Crowe thriller co-starring Liam Neeson about a man trying to break his wife out of prison...
...to start December, Kevin Spacey puts his hand back in to movies with 'Casino Jack' a film about a disgraced Washington power broker...
...Reese Witherspoon leads an all star cast with Jack Nicholson and Owen Wilson in 'How Do You Know' a love triangle that involves Paul Rudd...
...if your looking for more comedy it doesn't come much larger than life than Jack Black in 'Gullivers Travels' a film where Gulliver encounters a small race of people called Lilliputians. See this film if you really want to see what six inches looks like...
...if that's too rude for you why don't you meet the 'Little Fockers' instead, the third installment in the hilarious Stiller and De Niro 'Meet The Parents' franchise, featuring everyone from the first two movie and Jessica Alba. Now you want to meet up again with this family, don't you?...
...to close out the year Jeff Bridges matches his 'Crazy Heart' with a crazy schedule. First starring with Matt Damon (another guy working overtime (see above)) and Josh Brolin in 'True Grit' a more apt adaptation of the book which the 1969 film of the same name remade...
...Bridges other film this fall looks to be the film of the year. 'Tron: Legacy' is a sequel decades in the making that is set to redefine Disney and 3D (making it relevant again after it's novelty period). 'Tron' looks so shiny and stunning (these words don't begin to do it justice) that it just might blow 'Avatar' out of Pandora and leave its viewers looking at how young the 'The Big Lebowski' looks and saying 'duuuude'...
There are so many films for this fall that this is just the tip of the popcorn. So make sure you get a taste of all you can because your 'Films For Fridays' is looking real sweet for the holidays.TIM DAVID HARVEY.
