Movies in English

Week of September 5:

The selection of films in English continues to be dismal. The Nuovo Olimpia theater, which shows films in the orginal language, is still closed. The Warner Village Moderno in Piazza della Repubblica has actually downgraded their offerings, which now include the effervescent Kung Fu Panda at 5:10, 7:20 and 9:30 pm, as well as the Eddie Murphy comedy "Meet Dave" at 4:20, 6:20, 8:20, 10:20 pm. At the Metropolitan, on Via del Corso at Piazza del Popolo,w we have even more chances to see Kung Fu Panda, at 5:30, 7:45, 10 pm. Cheer up, the season will start again soon.
