Fri July 30 -  Thurs Aug 5

CYRUS  (R)  91min   6:00 and 8:30
With a touching and original story that blends humor and heartbreak, incisive writer/director brothers Mark and Jay Duplass (The Puffy Chair) have entered the mainstream.  Their insightful and funny look at love and family in contemporary LA stars John C. Reilly (Walk Hard) as a divorcee who finally after seven years alone meets the woman of his dreams (Marisa Tomei, The Wrestler).  But when she is oddly reluctant to take the relationship beyond his house, he discovers she has another man in her life, her sneakily meddlesome 21 year-old son (Jonah Hill, Get Him to the Greek) who is mom�s best friend and is definitely not ready to share her with anyone.  Before long, the two are locked in a battle of wits for the woman they both love - and it appears only one man can be left standing when it's over.

DINNER FOR SCHMUCKS (PG-13)  114min     5:30 and 8:00
Hollywood succeeds well in remaking French director Francis Veber�s winning comedy The Dinner Game into a crowd-pleasing hit of its own.  This screwball comedy tells the story of Tim (Judd Apatow regular Paul Rudd), a professional guy on the verge of having it all. The only thing standing between him and total career success is finding the perfect guest to bring to his boss' annual Dinner for Extraordinary People, an event he participates in reluctantly, where the evening�s winner brings the most eccentric character. Enter Barry (Steve Carell, Date Night), a loser guy with a passion for dressing mice up in tiny outfits to recreate great works of art. From director Jay Roach (Meet the Parents, Austin Powers) it is an unforgettable feast about two unlikely friends and one very memorable dinner.
