“Bride Wars”: Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway star in this lightweight comedy. Liv (Hudson), an attorney, and Emma (Hathaway), a schoolteacher, have been best friends since childhood, and both always dreamed of getting married at New York’s Plaza Hotel. As luck would have it, each woman decides to marry her boyfriend at about the same time, and each begins to arrange for her lavish dream wedding. But due to a scheduling snafu, only one of the ceremonies can take place at the Plaza. That’s when the former best friends become mortal enemies, with each woman trying to torpedo the other’s plans. 89 mins. Rated PG for suggestive content, language and some rude behavior.

“Hotel for Dogs”: Cute canines are the stars of this family comedy based on the children’s novel by Lois Duncan. The main human characters are 16-year-old Andi (Emma Roberts) and her 11-year-old brother Bruce (Jake T. Austin). Orphans living with foster parents in a place where dogs are not allowed, Andi and Bruce shelter their pet Jack Russell in an abandoned hotel. The siblings expand their project by taking in a whole bunch of stray pooches, and Bruce, who is a mechanical genius, automates caring for the dogs. Lisa Kudrow plays a foster mom, and Don Cheadle a social worker. 100 mins. Rated PG for brief, mild thematic elements, language and some crude humor.

“The Uninvited”: This horror movie is a remake of the 2003 South Korean film “A Tale of Two Sisters.” In “The Uninvited,” Anna (Emily Browning) is a teenager whose mother died in a fire. Anna became suicidal and spent months in a mental institution, but is now returning home to reunite with her older sister (Arielle Kebbel) and father (David Strathairn). But she finds that her late mother’s former nurse (Elizabeth Banks) is now her father’s girlfriend. Soon mysterious things start happening, Anna has nightmares and seemingly encounters ghosts. All this leads up to a climactic plot twist. 87 mins. Rated PG-13 for violent and disturbing images, thematic material, sexual content, language and teen drinking.
