Looking at the Weekend: Jan. 24-26, 2014

There are no other new wide releases, so I, Frankenstein will easily be the top new one, but can it beat the second week of Ride Along or any of the other holdovers? I’m not so sure.

Individual Commentaries

Wesley Lovell: I have no desire to see the latest Underworld-lite retread, but there are a couple limited releases that might be worthwhile, headlined by Stranger by the Lake.
Peter J. Patrick: A good week for catching up with Oscar nominees you may have missed.
Tripp Burton: Only one wide release this weekend, and it looks like a contender for worst film of the year. I’m glad I have a lot of catching up to do on 2013 films.
