Russ Leatherman, aka Mr. Moviefone, appears each Friday on Morning Express with Robin Meade with his no-nonsense rundown of the weekend's new releases at your local multiplex. This week:

"This Means War" -- starring Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pike and Tom Hardy (featuring Chelsea Handler): Mr. Moviefone says "I didn't think it was great, but I thought it was good," but he worries that people may be "worn out" on the romantic action genre after seeing "The Vow" last weekend.

"Ghost Rider 3D: Spirit of Vengeance" -- starring Nicholas Cage: Mr. Moviefone says, "Nick Cage's hair is on fire!" Unfortunately the film wasn't made available for critics to screen before it hits theaters. But hey, the trailer looks cool.

"The Secret World of Arrietty" -- featuring the voices of Will Arnett, Amy Poehler and Carol Burnett: Mr. Moviefone says, "This is my pick of the week. This is a beautiful little movie based on 'The Borrowers.'"

So which one(s) will you see?
