TITLE	STARS	RATING	SUMMARY	PLAYING AT
The Dark Knight		PG-13	A brilliant film is depleted by a bad case of not knowing when to end. Christian Bale's back as morally ambiguous, conflicted superhero Batman. He takes on the Joker (Heath Ledger), who craves anarchy for the twisted fun of it. 2:28. (Extreme violence). See review Page D1.

Mamma Mia!	½	PG-13	It's not just that the story is so weak, having been constructed to fit around songs by ABBA, it is that it is presented with such ineptitude. A woman tries to determine who is her father amid pop songs and a surplus of visibly forced faux exuberance. See review Page D3.

Space Chimps	--	G	Based on a video game, this animated family film tells the story of a chimpanzee astronaut sent into space to retrieve a space probe and defeat an intergalactic dictator. The main chimp isn't serious enough for the job, but fortunately he has two simian crewmates.	Carmike, Commonwealth, Short Pump, Virginia Center, West Tower
And When Did You Last See Your Father?		PG-13	Superb acting lifts this otherwise ordinary true story of a man (Colin Firth) who comes to understand his father (the extraordinary Jim Broadbent) as the older man is on his deathbed. Juliet Stevenson as the mother is also especially fine.	Westhampton
Gonzo: Dr. Hunter S. Thompson		R	Writer Hunter Thompson was even crazier than you think he was, and this documentary looks into both the man and the myth -- and the line that was blurred between them. Everyone interviewed is particularly articulate. 1:57. (Themes, language, nudity, drugs, guns) See review Page D2.	Westhampton
