REEL TIME: Madonna screws up a perfectly lovely story and The Rock is gross

With the help of City Paper film critics, Josh Middleton counts down the weekend's seven new-movie releases, from least- to most-worthy of your precious time and hard-earned dollar bills.

No. 7: Few things make me want to hurl more than hearing the words "starring The Rock." Please enjoy this haiku about Journey 2: The Mysterious Island while I say farewell to my lunch: "You know what they say: / If Brendan Fraser says no, / get the Rock. Same diff." (UA 69th Street, UA Riverview)
