Be Your Own Hero
How it Performed at the Box Office Opening Weekend: Unfortunately, this movie didn’t get the amount of viewers that it should have. This movie has gotten excellent reviews from just about all that saw it. It is an intelligent movie…but it opened against a not so intelligent (but still very good) Zombieland. All in all, opening weekend for this movie took in just over $4.5 million dollars. Don’t count this movie out though… More information about Whip It.
Release Date (everywhere): October 2nd, 2009
Their Plot Synopsis: In Bodeen, Texas, an indie-rock loving misfit finds a way of dealing with her small-town misery after she discovers a roller derby league in nearby Austin.
My Thoughts: I think this movie is actually going to be pretty good. Ellen Page is one of my favorite actress’ and I think she’ll perform just as well in this movie and will not be disappointing. I don’t think this movie is going to open so well at the box office it’s opening weekend though…but we’ll see. Some are saying that Drew Barrymore and Ellen page together could make for some “movie magic”
