Take in an action flick: Spice up the evening at Mangos Caribbean Restaurant, then check out new release “Rush,” starring Chris Hemsworth and Olivia Wilde about two race car drivers battling for glory on and off the track.
Modern Family. There’s nothing normal about the family in “We’re the Millers,” but Jennifer Aniston and SNL alumnus Jason Sudeikis are sure to make you laugh. Follow with a trip to Buns Hamburgers Hot Dogs & More for some homemade dishes in a fast-food setting.
Scare up some fun. “Insidious: Chapter 2” will have you screaming as much as the first, as the Lambert family learn their struggle with the supernatural is far from over when a long-buried secret plunges them back into a terrifying world of darkness. Head to Georgia Rib Company for a post-mortem, if you have the stomach.
Romance with a twist. Watch a ladies’ man and hopeless romantic fall in love in “Don Jon,” a romantic comedy that takes aim at traditional romantic stereotypes. Dine on gourmet Chinese at Mu Lan, located in a romantic Victorian.
Gangster style. Enjoy an all-star cast in “The Family,” starring Robert DeNiro and Michelle Pfeiffer as a mob family relocated to France who are just trying to fit in. Grab some Italian at Taverna Fiorentina for real Italian fare.
