		<description><![CDATA[Everybody's Fine, The Box, Sorority Row, Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant, and The Informant!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A couple horror/thriller films and a dude who is an expert at lying. Coming to DVD this week:</p>
<p><strong>The Informant</strong>: What was Mark Whitacre thinking? A rising star at agri-industry giant Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), Whitacre suddenly turns whistleblower. Even as he exposes his company&#8217;s multi-national price-fixing conspiracy to the FBI, Whitacre envisions himself being hailed as a hero of the common man and handed a promotion.</p>
<p>But before all that can happen, the FBI needs evidence, so Whitacre eagerly agrees to wear a wire and carry a hidden tape recorder in his briefcase, imagining himself as a kind of de facto secret agent. Unfortunately for the FBI, their lead witness hasn&#8217;t been quite so forthcoming about helping himself to the corporate coffers.</p>
<p>Whitacre&#8217;s ever-changing account frustrates the agents and threatens the case against ADM as it becomes almost impossible to decipher what is real and what is the product of Whitacre&#8217;s rambling imagination. Based on the true story of the highest-ranking corporate whistleblower in U.S. history.</p>
<p><strong>The Box</strong>: Norma and Arthur Lewis are a suburban couple with a young child who receive an anonymous gift bearing fatal and irrevocable consequences. A simple wooden box, it promises to deliver its owner $1 million with the press of a button. However, pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another human being somewhere in the world&#8230;someone they don&#8217;t know. With just 24 hours to have the box in their possession, Norma and Arthur find themselves in the crosshairs of a startling moral dilemma and face the true nature of their humanity.</p>
<p><strong>Cirque du Freak: The Vampire&#8217;s Assistant</strong>: A boy unknowingly breaks a 200-year-old truce between two warring factions of vampires. Pulled into a fantastic life of misunderstood sideshow freaks and grotesque creatures of the night, one teen will vanish from the safety of a boring existence and fulfill his destiny in a place drawn from nightmares.</p>
<p>14-year-old Darren was like most kids in his suburban neighborhood. He hung out with his best friend, got decent grades and usually stayed out of trouble. But when he and his buddy stumble upon a traveling freak show, things begin to change inside Darren. That&#8217;s the exact moment when a vampire named Larten Crepsley turns him into something, well, bloodthirsty.</p>
<p><strong>Sorority Row</strong>: When five sorority girls inadvertently cause the murder of one of their sisters in a prank gone wrong, they agree to keep the matter to themselves and never speak of it again, so they can get on with their lives. This proves easier said than done, when after graduation a mysterious killer goes after the five of them and anyone who knows their secret.</p>
<p><strong>Everybody&#8217;s Fine:</strong> A widower embarks on an impromptu road trip to reconnect with each of his grown children only to discover that their lives are far from picture perfect.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Surprising tale of love and perseverance.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-2894 alignleft" title="adam-movie-f06" src="http://www.joreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/adam-movie-f06.jpg" alt="adam-movie-f06" width="161" height="248" />Adam is a surprising tale of love and perseverance. Adam Raki (Hugh Dancy) is perplexed and has communication troubles. Feeling different and out of place he has sheltered himself for years, that is until his father pass&#8217; away and he is forced to join the mainstream. Duties like grocery shopping, doing the laundry and riding the subway are foreign to Adam. Until he meets his new neighbor, Beth Buchwald (Rose Byrne), a beautiful, cosmopolitan young woman who pulls him into the outside world. The unlikely pairing proves just how far two people are willing to stretch in search of an extraordinary connection.</p>
<p>The connection does not come easy as Adam has been diagnosed with Asperger&#8217;s syndrome and sometimes does not have a filter and can&#8217;t quite understand the dimensions of a true relationship. Beth heeds all warnings and continues her friendship with Adam that leads to a romantic relationship. As with any romance there are many trials and tribulations. Given they are not the same in every relationship; they definitely will test the love the two share.</p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-2893 alignright" title="adam_filmstill2" src="http://www.joreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/adam_filmstill2-300x195.jpg" alt="adam_filmstill2" width="180" height="117" />Adam is a heartfelt intriguing tale, an insightful one too. Writer Max Mayer deals with the touchy subject beautifully, and Hugh Dancy proves to be a noteworthy star with his performance. Rose Byrne as the torn lover paralleled with mixed emotions was enjoyable to watch. The chemistry between Byrne and Dancy as these two lost souls looking to each other was undeniable. Towards the end the film seemed to drag a bit, and at first I was disappointed by the ending. Giving it much thought following I changed that opinion. I don&#8217;t look at this film as a love story, but rather as an inspirational tale about Adam, a story about his disease and his ability to grow as a person. Proving that all of us deserve love and that if we are strong enough we can all pick up and search for it. This New York love story proves love does not stand for one specific thing, loving is much more meaningful. You&#8217;ll see what I mean.</p>
