Playing at local movie theaters
SHOOTER ** This claustrophobic tale of conspiracies collapses into a seemingly eternal series of explosions and false endings. Running time: 125 minutes, R (violence, profanity) Christy Lemire, Associated Press
SLOW BURN * A carbon copy of "The Usual Suspects." Reviewed Tuesday, running time: 93 minutes, R (sex, violence, profanity) Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press
TMNT ** Those film phenoms of 1990, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, are B-O-R-I-N-G. Running time: 80 minutes, PG (violence, profanity) Roger Moore, The Orlando Sentinel
TYLER PERRY'S DADDY'S LITTLE GIRLS ** Playwright Perry almost gets out of his own way with this urban "Cinderella." Running time: 95 minutes, PG-13 (drugs, sex, vulgarity, violence, profanity) Roger Moore, The Orlando Sentinel
WILD HOGS * 1/2 Every bit as terrible as you'd expect a film to be with John Travolta, Tim Allen and Martin Lawrence. Running time: 100 minutes, PG-13 (vulgarity, violence, profanity, brief nudity, brief drugs)
THE WIND THAT SHAKES THE BARLEY *** 1/2 This British thriller makes war look ugly. Running time: 127 minutes, R (violence, profanity, torture, vulgarity, brief sex, gore)
THE WORK AND THE GLORY III: A HOUSE DIVIDED ** This third film about early LDS Church history seems curiously anticlimactic. Running time: 96 minutes, PG (violence)
ZODIAC ** 1/2 Real-life story of a serial killer in the San Francisco area during the '60s and '70s boasts a strong cast but is too long. Running time: 160 minutes, R (violence, profanity, drugs, sex) Christy Lemire, Associated Press
