weed 4 6 7 MOVIES ALSO PLAYING 1 Capsule reviews of previously released films. NG Film not graded by reviewer. t. I MY BEST FRIEND'S GIRL D- for i. strong language and sexual content throughout.

101 minutes. Hollywood hurls Dane Cook at the screen, again and again, hoping something will stick. With his dyed hair, perma-stubble and too-fast, too-rehearsed patter, Cook sets himself up as a C- list Vince Vaughn. (Orlando Sentinel) NIGHTS IN RODANTHE PG-13; contains some sensuality, strong language and alcohol abuse. 97 minutes.

A sentimental but satisfying grown-up romance, with Richard Gere, Diane Lane and a picturesque seaside inn as the setting for their successful discovery of each other. It's a bit of a tearjerker, but at least it earns its sobs. (Newhouse News Service) PINEAPPLE EXPRESS 1 B- for pervasive language, drug use, sexual references and violence. 111 minutes. A stoner and his dealer run afoul of some bad guys, steal guns and start shooting.

Not exactly high-concept cinema, but "Pineapple Express" is fairly amusing. James Franco is a hoot as the dealer. (Clint O'Connor) RIGHTEOUS KILL for violence, pervasive language, some sexuality and brief drug use. 101 minutes. A standard police procedural, a long episode of "Law Order," unremarkable but for the pairing of Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.

It meanders from one shooting to the next until the cli1 mactic, bombastic confrontation between our two hammy stars. (Associated Press) SWING VOTE PG-13, for language. 120 minutes. The presidential election is down to the vote of the not-so-informed Bud (Kevin Costner), who is heavily courted by both candidates. If this isn't the worst film of 2008, it's certainly one of the most boring and misguided.

(Clint O'Connor) TELL NO ONE Not rated, contains nudity and violence. 125 minutes. Guillaume Canet's thriller is the movie equivalent of a puzzle deconstructed then reassembled. Francois Cluzet is great in a man-on-the-run role, as a doctor who's been framed for the murder of his wife. (John Petkovic) i I TRANSSIBERIAN contains violence and brief nudity.

110 minutes. A tight, surprising little mystery that starts with an old situation two innocents abroad strike up a fateful friendship with their fellow travelers on a transcontinental train trip and then gives it a few twists. (Newhouse News Service) TROPIC THUNDER A for pervasive language, violent content and drug material. 107 minutes. A fabulously funny action-comedy from writer-director-star Ben Stiller.

When five actors shooting a war epic get lost in the jungle, they must learn to fight actual bad guys. Hilarious performances, especially from Robert Downey Jr. and Tom Cruise. (Clint O'Connor) TYLER PERRY'S THE FAMILY THAT PREYS B- PG-13, for thematic material, sexual references and brief violence. 111 minutes.

Revolves around the friendship between two women (Alfre Woodard and Kathy Bates) and the secrets harbored by their families. It's true to the Tyler Perry brand, meaning that it delivers spiritual uplift, humor and strong moralistic viewpoints. (Julie E. Washington) VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA 1-p. 4 PG-13, for mature thematic material involving sexuality.

97 minutes. A terrifically enjoyable film from Woody Allen, in which Javier Bardem, Penelope Cruz, Scarlett Johansson and Rebecca Hall share love, lust and libations in beautiful Barcelona. (Clint O'Connor) THE WOMEN B- PG-13, for sex-related material, language, drug use and brief smoking. 114 minutes. There's nothing fresh in Diane English's remake of the 1939 George Cukor film.

Meg Ryan plays a do-it-all woman stunned to learn about her husband's affair. With Annette Bening, Debra Messing and Jada Pinkett Smith. (Julie E. Washington) COMING ATTRACTIONS NEXT FRIDAY Body of Lies: This story of CIA intrigue in the Middle East has two stud stars, Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe, and a powerhouse director, Ridley Scott.
