1. "Clash of the Titans" In 'Clash of the Titans,' the ultimate struggle for power pits men against kings and kings against gods. But the war between the gods themselves could destroy the world. Born of a god but raised as a man, Perseus (Sam Worthington) is helpless to save his family from Hades (Ralph Fiennes), vengeful god of the underworld. With nothing left to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to defeat Hades before he can seize power from Zeus (Liam Neeson) and unleash hell on earth. Leading a daring band of warriors, Perseus sets off on a perilous journey deep into forbidden worlds. Battling unholy demons and fearsome beasts, he will only survive if he can accept his power as a god, defy his fate and create his own destiny. - Moviephone.com.

2. "Date Night" Steve Carell and Tina Fey star in director Shawn Levy's comedy about a couple whose routine date night becomes anything but when dinner and a movie just won't suffice anymore. Their union in imminent danger of becoming hopelessly monotonous, the desperate couple goes to unprecedented lengths in order to preserve the spark. Mark Wahlberg, James Franco, and Kristen Wiig co-star in the 20th Century Fox production. - Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

3. "How to Train Your Dragon:" From the studio that brought you 'Shrek,' 'Madagascar' and 'Kung Fu Panda' comes 'How to Train Your Dragon.' Set in the mythical world of burly Vikings and wild dragons, and based on the book by Cressida Cowell, the action comedy tells the story of Hiccup, a Viking teenager who doesn't exactly fit in with his tribe's longstanding tradition of heroic dragon slayers. Hiccup's world is turned upside down when he encounters a dragon that challenges him and his fellow Vikings to see the world from an entirely different point of view. - Moviephone.com

4. "Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married Too?:" Janet Jackson reprises her role in this sequel to "Why Did I get Married" as the author and psychologist who attempts to solving her patients' problems more so than concentrating on her own. The film also stars Jill Scott, Tyler Perry, Tasha Smith, Malik Yoba, Richard T. Jones, Sharon Leal, Michael Jai White, and Lamman Rucker.

5. "The Last Song" Miley Cyrus stars as a teenager who reconnects with her father years after her parents go through a nasty divorce in this adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks novel. The novelist also provides the screenplay for the production, which is directed by Julie Ann Robinson. - Jeremy Wheeler, All Movie Guide
