Top 5 movies

By Times Staff
Published May 27, 2004

1. Shrek 2 - It's all ogre now at theaters with the arrival of a sequel that exceeds the original in comedy and computer animation.

2. Adrenaline Rush: The Science of Risk - Thrill seekers get an IMAX-size dose of skydiving and base jumping, plus lessons in Leonardo da Vinci's theory of flight. Only at the IMAX Dome Theater at Tampa's Museum of Science and Industry.

3. The Day After Tomorrow - Director Roland Emmerich creates a thinking person's disaster flick, with Dennis Quaid and Jake Gyllenhaal outracing a new Ice Age.

4. Troy - Brad Pitt cuts an imposing figure as Achilles the warrior in Wolfgang Petersen's brawny epic. Forget Van Helsing; this movie kicked off the real summer action season.

5. Mean Girls - Saturday Night Live head writer Tina Fey proves she's ready for Hollywood's prime time with a smart teen comedy for all ages.
