"Life of Pi" opened Wednesday. Directed by Ang Lee. Starring Suraj Sharma, Irrfan Khan, Rafe Spall, and Adil Hussain. Our review: "Making the familiar feel universal, Lee digs deep with every facet of filmmaking – sound, vision and poignant texture — to create an engrossing cinematic experience that is ultimately emotionally involving and rich." Metacritic: 78 Rotten Tomatoes: 87% The Playlist: A-

"Red Dawn" opened Wednesday. Directed by Dan Bradley. Starring Chris Hemsworth, Josh Peck, Josh Hutcherson, Isabel Lucas, Adrianne Palicki, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Our review from Fantastic Fest: "'Red Dawn' is a victory of small battles and heavy artillery, sentimental but rarely too hackneyed, energetic without becoming too silly." Our alternate review: "You keep wondering when the real leading character will emerge, and when the real movie will actually begin. Keep waiting." MC: 33 RT: 12% PL: B- (Fantastic Fest) and F

"Rise of the Guardians" opened Wednesday. Directed by Peter Ramsey. Starring Alec Baldwin, Hugh Jackman, Isla Fisher, Chris Pine, and Jude Law. Our review: "The design work in 'Rise of the Guardians' is jaw-dropping," but "sometimes the gears of the storytelling machine squeak too loudly." MC: 57 RT: 77% PL: B

"The Central Park Five." Directed by David McMahon, Ken Burns, and Sarah Burns. The documentary unites extensive archival footage and detail-heavy interviews to create an effective and engaging retelling of the 1989 Central Park Jogger case. MC: 74 RT: 89%

"Hitchcock." Directed by Sacha Gervasi. Starring Anthony Hopkins, Helen Mirren, Toni Collette, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jessica Biel, and Scarlett Johansson. Our review: "While Gervasi’s comedy-drama presses charmingly on this period in Hitchcock’s career, the film ultimately collapses under its own lightweight intentions of tribute-turned-romance." MC: 63 RT: 64% PL: C

"Rust and Bone." Directed by Jacques Audiard. Starring Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts. Our review: "'Rust And Bone' is a standout, and a towering picture we can't wait to see again." MC: 67 RT: 81% PL: A-
