The other day Chris was disappointed that I didn't get more movies from the library, so yesterday we went and picked up a few.

In the Valley of Elah, Rated R
This movie is about a man whose son goes missing after coming back from Iraq.  He helps a detective investigate what happens when they find his son's body on the edge of the military's jurisdiction.  This movie was okay but there is nudity and language.

Children of Men, Rated R
This movie is based in the year 2027 when the world is surrounded in chaos and a child hasn't been born in over 18 years.  A man is forced to risk his life when he finds that the hope of the world is trusted to him.  This movie drags on in parts and there is one scene of nudity.  The concept of the world being infertile is interesting.  At the beginning of the movie the youngest person in the world dies and the everyone mourns him.  It makes you wonder what would happen if everyone realized that there is no future.

Premonition, Rated PG13
This is about a woman who finds out her husband died in a car accident and then wakes up the next day to find him alive.  Every day she wakes up she realizes that the days rotate between the days before his death and the days after his death.  She finally realizes that she can possibly change what happens to her husband but wonders if she should.
