Since my daughter, Jenna, and I first saw the previews, we have wanted to see the movie "The Help." ("The Help" opened in theatres this past Wednesday.) I'm really not sure what the big attraction is, it just looks like a great movie. Maybe it's because the storyline is different. Maybe it's because the cast is so diverse. Maybe because it looks both funny and meaningful all at the same time.
Our Movie Profiler Melinda Petrow's picks for this weekend include a Planet of The Apes prequel, "Rise of the Planet of the Apes"
Boosted by unexpectedly strong word-of-mouth and generous reviews, 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' was number one for the second weekend in a row, becoming the top-grossing movie of 2011 thus far with a total take of $261.0 million.
Coming in second, the Jennifer Aniston-featured dark comedy 'Horrible Bosses' earned an estimated $28.1 million, while the family flick 'Zookeeper' came in third with $21.0 million.
