Mrs. Beast’s picks for the weekend of April 5 – 7, 2013:
1. GI Joe
2. Evil Dead
3. The Croods
4. Jurassic Park 3D
5. Temptation

1. Evil Dead – I don’t usually go to horror movies, but I might go to this
2. The Croods’
3. G.I. Joe Retaliation. — better then the first one, but rumors surrounding the year long delay will tank it, no ones going to take a chance.
4. Jurassic Park 3D – Admit it, you want to see it.
5) Temptation
