There are nine, count 'em, NINE new movies opening in the Twin Cities this weekend, and they run the gamut, from the new Miyazaki animated gem to a documentary about the history of the no-holds-barred Ozploitation movies (which shocked even Tarantino.)

We have: Ashton Kutcher as a serial womanizer in Spread, kids with a magic stone in "Shorts," South African sci-fi in "District 9," love and Asberger's in "Adam," love and temporal shifting in "The Time Traveler's Wife," Jeremy Piven doing car sales and off-color jokes in "The Goods: Live Hard. Sell Hard," teens seeking fame and fortune in "Bandslam," Miyazaki's tale of a little boy who finds the daughter of the sea god, "Ponyo", and the very graphic documentary "Not Quite Hollywood" on the blood, nudity and violence of Ozploitation.
