Summer Movie Preview 2008, Part III: July class=

An uneven May kicked off our Summer At The Movies - 2008 Edition: we loved Iron Man (2008), hated Speed Racer (2008) and were only ho-hum about The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008) and Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull (2008).

Now, as we head into June, we look ahead to see what July has in store for us.
