NEW FILMS FRIDAY

THE HANGOVER —★★★ — Given how sick-and-wrong this comedy is, you may feel guilty for laughing. Running time: 100 minutes, R (profanity, vulgarity, violence, drugs, nudity, slurs, sex, brief gore)

LAND OF THE LOST — ★★ — The big-screen adaptation of the kids show is full of lowest common denominator humor. Running time: 100 minutes, PG-13 (violence, vulgarity, profanity, drugs, brief sex, slurs, brief gore, nude art)

LEMON TREE — ★★ — This Israeli import is so dry it might as well be described as "barren." With subtitles, running time: 106 minutes, not rated, probable PG (profanity, slurs, violence, vulgarity)

THE LIMITS OF CONTROL — ★ — Jim Jarmusch's latest almost plays like a parody. Running time: 116 minutes, R (nudity, profanity) — Christy Lemire, Associated Press

MY LIFE IN RUINS — ★½ — Big, fat Greek stereotypes and some even-more-questionable humor. Running time: 96 minutes, PG-13 (vulgarity, profanity, slurs, brief sex, nude art, violence, brief drugs)
