This week's new movie releases - July 15, 2011

Michael Bay's "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" has been dominating the North American box office for two weeks, but it looks like the film's reign is about to come to an end with the release of the final "Harry Potter" film. Also opening this week? "Winnie the Pooh."
HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS: PART 2, with Daniel Radcliffe
No, "Part 1" is certainly not the best "Potter" film, but it sure promises a massive finale. As a big fan of the series, I'm definitely looking forward to the end, although I know for a fact that I will be leaving the theater disappointed that this joyful ride is over. Needless to say, it looks like "Part 2" will deliver the goods. We've all been waiting for it. My excitement meter: 9/10.
WINNIE THE POOH, with the voices of Jim Cummings and Craig Ferguson
"Winnie the Pooh" is back in action, and no, this is not a CGI flick, and no, it's not in 3D. This is classic Disney trying to go for it old school, and I hope the film will find an audience. The good old 2D animated films still rule, and it's a shame we don't get to see more of them these days. My excitement meter: 7/10.
