VIDEO: Your weekend movies... Julian Assange and Romeo and Juliet

Cinema trip this weekend? TheJournal.ie brings you snippets from new releases to help you decide where to put your money…

WHICH NEW MOVIE release is worth the price of a cinema ticket this weekend?

We’re here to help you decide just that, with these trailers.

Baggage Claim

For fans of: Cheese, flying

Avoid if: You believe the reviews

If your sister told you she was getting married in 30 days, what’s the first thing you would do? Unlike the rest of us, Montana Moore (Paula Patton) – a flight attendant – decides to bag herself a husband, despite not even being in a relationship. Ah here. Morto for her. PS: This isn’t what women want.

Romeo and Juliet

(movies coming soon/YouTube)

For fans of: Star-crossed lovers, death

Avoid if: You’d rather a happy ending

We all know the story of Romeo and Juliet, but that hasn’t stopped the adaptations of Shakespeare’s famous play about star-crossed lovers. Forsooth, I know not why but this looks fairly entertaining – a little more violent and sexy than Baz Luhrmann’s version. The critics hate it, however.

The Fifth Estate

For fans of: Julian Assange, the internet

Avoid if: You’re easily amused

Sorry, if you heard something there it was me sniggering loudly at Benedict Cumberbatch’s bewigged portrayal of Julian Assange in this film. This is the story of Wikileaks, so nerds and geeks unite.
