If you are asked whether you want to watch a George Clooney flick, the chances are pretty high 
that you will agree without thinking twice (though you may enquire whether he is playing Batman again). With a stellar performance in his last movie, the Oscar nominated 'Up In the Air', I had hoped that Clooney would move on to something bigger. But The American released last weekend does not seem to fit the bill. A story line around an assassin on his final job does not sound something fresh. While the movie topped the weekend US box office, it will not be making the $100 million cut. Surprisingly, it has been three years since Clooney has had a film cross the $100 million mark in the US, with Ocean's Thirteen achieving this feat in 2007. But you still gotta love his style!

No other exciting news this week... Shooting for Spiderman 4 to begin from December. And casting for the remake of Judge Dredd is going on, with Karl Urban (remember him as Dr. McCoy from Star Trek) to fill Stallone's big shoes.
