Top five movies
By TImes staff writer
Published January 4, 2007
Current movies recommended by the Times: 1 Rocky Balboa - Sylvester Stallone brings terrific closure to the boxing saga. Almost as good as the 1976 original. 2 The History Boys - The Tony Award-winning play goes to the movies with its original cast and wit intact. 3 Apocalypto - Mel Gibson's ultraviolent historical epic establishes him as a filmmaker whose creative instincts are beyond question. 4 Children of Men - Director Alfonso Cuaron envisions an infertile future when a revolutionary (Clive Owen) protects the world's only pregnant woman. 5 Dreamgirls - A star is born (Jennifer Hudson, above) and another reborn (Eddie Murphy) in a fine adaptation of the Broadway smash. UPCOMING RELEASES All dates subject to change. Jan 12: Notes on a Scandal; Stomp the Yard; The Painted Veil; Curse of the Golden Flower; Arthur and the Invisibles Jan. 19: Volver
