All of the new DVD releases hit stores (and Netflix) on Tuesdays. So each week in What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday, I sort through the best of the batch and tell you what to add to your queue.
Reign Over Me
With the exception of a few minor quibbles, I really liked this movie that finds an unlikely duo in Don Cheadle and Adam Sandler, and an even unlikelier dramatic performance from Sandler.

How many puns can we make about Ratatouille, the animated movie about a rat chef, taking the top slot at the box office this weekend? Ratatouille deep fries Die Hard at the box office? Ratatouille slices and dices the competition?

Not only can Steve Carell get animals to board an ark — he can also entice people to go to the movies. Carell's Evan Almighty took the No. 1 spot at the weekend box office, bumping The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer from its temporary throne.

While there are several new releases coming out this weekend (Evan Almighty, A Mighty Heart, 1408, and others), it's hard to say if any of them will definitely knock The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer off of its box office throne. What do you think?
Which Movie Will Be No.

In my opinion, Evan Almighty gets a "K" for "kinda." It's kinda funny, kinda cute, kinda cool to look at. The premise is comical: What issues would a modern-day Noah face when he's called upon to build an ark?

Judging by the trailer for this Friday's Evan Almighty, the movie itself doesn't look like a polished work of art, though Steve Carell appears to be doing his usual funny thing. In fact, his character seems rather similar to the one he plays on "The Office." Thus, I'm going to giving Evan Almighty a shot.

Sure, he's a big movie star now, but Steve Carell isn't above making a return visit to the show that made him a household name: "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart." Carell stopped by the show on Monday to promote his new movie, Evan Almighty, which opens on Friday.
Of course, "The Daily Show" wasn't going to let Carell off easy.

Some of the funniest people in Hollywood came out for the LA premiere of Evan Almighty yesterday. The film, which is a sequel to 2003 Bruce Almighty starring Jim Carrey, stars Steve Carell as a congressman who is contacted by God to build an ark. The film has had some problems getting off the ground but Steve turned his last two films into box office gold so hopefully this one will do well.

I'm not too sure about Evan Almighty as a great movie, but it definitely looks like a great vehicle for Steve Carell. You've probably seen the shorter previews on TV for the family film about a modern-day Noah who is called upon by God (Morgan Freeman) to build an ark. The whole thing is pretty absurd, but that doesn't stop Carell from doing his usual hilarious thing.
