NEW FILMS FRIDAY
FISH TANK — ★★ — The one reason to see this downbeat drama is the vivid performance of newcomer Katie Jarvis. Running time: 126 minutes; not rated, probable R (profanity, sex, violence, brief nudity, vulgarity, slurs)
GREEN ZONE — ★★½ — A convoluted and contrived speculative piece that is not the ideal reteaming for the "Bourne Ultimatum" star and director. Running time: 115 minutes; R (violence, profanity, gore, torture, slurs, brief drugs, vulgarity)
NORDWAND (NORTH FACE) — ★★½ — Quality moments in this overlong climbing thriller come when characters are on the side of the mountain. German with subtitles; running time: 126 minutes; not rated, probable PG-13 (violence, profanity, brief gore, slurs, brief drugs, vulgarity)
OUR FAMILY WEDDING — ★½ — We've seen this material done many times over the past few years — and done considerably better. Running time: 102 minutes; PG-13 (vulgarity, profanity, violence, sex, slurs, drugs)
REMEMBER ME — Drama about two would-be lovers torn apart by unexpected tragedies. Robert Pattinson stars. Running time: 113 minutes; PG-13 (violence, sex, profanity)
SHE'S OUT OF MY LEAGUE — ★★½ — The fresh-faced cast makes this often-crude comedy work when it probably shouldn't. Running time: 104 minutes; R (vulgarity, profanity, brief sex, slurs, brief nudity, violence, brief drugs)
UNTIL THE LIGHT TAKES US — ★ — Everyone associated with the music documentary takes things so seriously that it becomes a bore. Norwegian with subtitles; not rated, probable R (profanity, violence, gore, slurs, vulgarity, brief drugs, nude artwork)
