One has a trailer of pure excitement and features prominent young actors and the other has a terrible trailer that won’t appeal to even the most desperate of moviegoers. I think it’s clear that Gangster Squad will handily beat A Haunted House for the box office crown this week.

Individual Commentaries

Wesley Lovell: Even though I have my suspicions that Gangster Squad was postponed due to a lack of quality rather than respect for the Aurora shooting victims, I’m still curious to see Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone together on the big screen. I also think Quartet could be an interesting trifle and am curious about Storage 24.
Peter J. Patrick: Quartet, which had an Oscar qualifying run in L.A. in December, is the only new film which seems worth the bother this week.
Tripp Burton: This is the time of the year when the studios start dumping a lot of material that won’t hold up any other time of year. This week is a perfect example of that.
