NEW FILMS FRIDAY

ANGELS & DEMONS — ★½ — A thriller so far-fetched that it makes the "National Treasure" movies look plausible. Tom Hanks stars. Running time: 138 minutes, PG-13 (violence, gore, drugs, nude art, profanity)

GOODBYE SOLO — ★★★ — A character piece that, admittedly, takes some time to get where it's going. Running time: 91 minutes, not rated, probable R (profanity, slurs, vulgarity, violence, brief drugs)

SUGAR — ★★★ — A baseball drama that turns into something different and more fresh. With subtitles, running time: 95 minutes, R (profanity, vulgarity, slurs, violence, brief sex, brief drugs)

TOKYO! — ★★½ — The oddness of this Japanese-centric trio of stories is sort of refreshing. With subtitles, running time: 112 minutes, not rated, probable R (violence, nudity, vulgarity, slurs)
