Moviegoers have a slew of options this weekend.
On Friday, Jason Momoa, Rachel Nichols, Stephen Lang and Rose McGowan star in the rebooted Conan the Barbarian, directed by Marcus Nispel.
Meanwhile, David Nicholls’ One Day, a best-selling romantic novel, has been adapted for the big screen. The movie, from director Lone Scherfig, stars Anne Hathaway, Jim Sturgess and Patricia Clarkson.
Also opening this weekend is Fright Night, a remake of the 1985 vampire-themed original. It’s directed by Craig Gillespie and stars Anton Yelchin, Colin Farrell and Christopher Mintz-Plasse.
Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabar return for their fourth film in the franchise with Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D, this time working with a pregnant secret agent, played by Jessica Alba.
See what The Hollywood Reporter‘s critics have to say about those films — and others opening this weekend — and find out how well they are expected to perform at the box office.

Amigo
Bottom Line: Good looking, atmospheric and steeped in the culture of the rural Philippines of the time, Amigo follows what happens when a U.S. platoon occupies the village of San Isidro deep in the rice paddies far from Manila.

Flypaper
Bottom Line: Although tempting enough to initially attract audiences, this caper comedy may have trouble getting them to stick around, despite a starry cast.
