What to watch this weekend: That deep sci-fi flick everyone will be pretending to understand

Transcendence

This meaty treat for the Inception fan club (Inception director Christopher Nolan and cinematographer Wally Pfister are involved) stars Johnny Depp as a Super Serious But Morally Ambiguous Sci-Fi/Action Hero. It’s really weird to see him sober.

Kiki’s Delivery Service

This live action remake of Hayao Miyazaki’s ennui-filled classic looks pretty awful.

The Other Woman

The guy who plays Jaime Lannister on GoT has clearly been pigeonholed: He plays a cheating cad stringing Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann and Sports Illustrated cover girl Kate Upton along. Completing this chick flick travesty is an ill-cast Nicki Minaj as the token black friend.

Son of God

If you didn’t catch the miniseries on the History channel, now’s your chance to see the big screen adaptation. Strictly for hardcore fans of J.C., this movie scores only 22% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Black Butler

Another live action remake, this one is of the popular manga and anime series and stars a sexy demon butler (we want one).
