Art School Confidential Director: Terry Zwigoff Stars: Max Minghella , Sophia Myles , John Malkovich (Full Cast )Studio: Sony Pictures Classics
The Plot: Convinced that art school will put him on the path to fame, Jerome (Minghella) must come to terms with his barely-there talent, and the fact that the girl of his dreams has fallen in love with another student. Then, strangely, he's arrested as a suspected murderer, only to discover that crime might actually pay.
THE BUZZ: Can Zwigoff (Ghost World ) go 2-for-2 with adaptations of Dan Clowes's comics? This one is a tougher sell, since Confidential doesn't have the long-form cool of its predecessor (it's a one-page story, and available in Twentieth Century Eightball

Poseidon Director: Wolfgang Petersen Stars: Richard Dreyfuss , Kurt Russell , Emmy Rossum (Full Cast )Studio: Warner Bros. Pictures
The Plot: After a tidal wave causes a luxury ocean liner to capsize, a handful of survivors endeavor to find a way to the water's surface.
THE BUZZ: When director Petersen heads to the ocean, he creates classics (Das Boot ) and hits (The Perfect Storm ), so it's no surprise he was installed to steer this well-cast remake. With a gambler (Josh Lucas) and a stowaway (Mia Maestro) on board, we're thinking Warner Bros. is gunning for a sort-of "Lost" at sea angle. But, but ... will there be a morning after? Peace to Shelley Winters and Roddy McDowall.

Just My Luck Director: Donald Petrie Stars: Lindsay Lohan , Chris Pine (Full Cast )Studio: 20th Century Fox Pictures
The Plot: Sexy Manhattanite Ashley (Lindsay Lohan) is known to many as the luckiest woman around. After a chance encounter with a down-and-out young man (Chris Pine), however, she realizes that she's swapped her fortune for his.
THE BUZZ: Why it takes four writers to craft a vehicle for Lindsay Lohan is beyond us - then again, gawd knows how many tabloid reporters are assigned to the Lohan beat in real life. Word has it the gal partied rather heartily on the film's New Orleans set, sparking word of a terrible performance and numerous delays. Hey, didn't we hear the same thing about Herbie: Fully Loaded ? Lohan did fine there, as did the movie, which racked up a surprising $65 million. Another medium-sized hit? We think so, especially since the storyline comes off as a romantic comedy version of Freaky Friday .

Goal! [limited]Director: Danny Cannon Stars: Kuno Becker , Alessandro Nivola , Anna Friel (Full Cast )Studio: Buena Vista Pictures
The Plot: An incredible sequence of events finds Santiago (Becker), a Los Angeleno with a lifelong dream to play professional soccer, granted a tryout with Newcastle United.
THE BUZZ: This first film in a planned trilogy was originally set up with director Michael Winterbottom and star Diego Luna . Retooled for CSI vet Danny Cannon and the pillow-lipped Kuno Becker (Luc�a, Luc�a ), we hear the script's roughness has been smoothed out for easy digestion. Cameos from Becks and Zin�dine Zidane will thrill sports fans, but is it enough to get them off the field and away from their TVs? The producers must feel like they have an international hit on their hands, as Goal! 2 is nearly completed.

Giuliani Time [limited]Director: Kevin Keating Stars: Rudolph W. Giuliani (Full Cast )Studio: Cinema Libre Studio
The Plot: A documentary that investigates the 'new' New York City that then-Mayor Rudy Giuliani claimed he helped create.
THE BUZZ: Kevin Keating and his crew dig into Giuliani's pre-9/11 career as contenders for the 2008 presidential election are coming forward. It's no secret that Giuliani has been tipped as one of the Republican frontrunners, and now the major issues he has taken credit for fixing up during his administration (crime, welfare reform, First Amendment rights) have come under the microscope.

Haven [limited]Director: Frank E. Flowers Stars: Bill Paxton , Agnes Bruckner , Orlando Bloom (Full Cast )Studio: Haven Distribution
The Plot: Acting on a tip, a shady businessman (Paxton) grabs his daughter (Bruckner) and flees to the Cayman Islands to avoid the feds. Their fate is tied to that of a local guy (Bloom) who is destined to commit a crime that will rock the nation.
THE BUZZ: Reviews from the film festival circuit indicate writer-director Frank E. Flowers has made a mess in his debut. Most people cite his poor usage of Rashomon structure as the film's main fault, as well as his inability to bring his many strands together. Still, with this cast and the right marketing angle, Haven could find an audience. We suggest likening it to The Matador .

Down in the Valley [limited]Director: David Jacobson Stars: Edward Norton , Evan Rachel Wood , David Morse (Full Cast )Studio: ThinkFilm
The Plot: Tobe (Wood) discovers passion and excitement for the first time in Harlan (Norton), a displaced cowboy who is ill-suited for the city of Los Angeles. Despite their differences, and the protests of of Tobe's father (Morse), she pursues a relationship with her mystery man, until she finds he is not at all whom he appeared to be.
THE BUZZ: Rumor has it DitV is stunning but overlong, which could prove maddening for those who go see it only for the reportedly steamy scenes between Norton and Wood. David (Dahmer ) Jacobson's direction is said to match the intensity of his two stars as he yearns to showcase LA's Western and urban disparity, and a man who represents the imbalance.
