GOOD LUCK CHUCK

The title character (Dane Cook) breaks up with his longtime girlfriend, who soon becomes engaged to someone else — a pattern that repeats itself with surprising regularity in a romantic comedy featuring Jessica Alba (who also turns up this week in “The Ten”) as an accident-prone penguin specialist who might be his Ms. Right. At multiple locations. (96 minutes) R; strong sexual content including crude dialogue, nudity, profanity, drug use.

IN THE VALLEY OF ELAH

When his soldier son disappears a week after returning from Iraq, a military veteran (Tommy Lee Jones) investigates with the help of a dogged detective (Charlize Theron) in this acclaimed thriller from “Crash” writer-director Paul Haggis. At Village Square. (113 minutes) R; violent and disturbing content, profanity, sexual situations, nudity.

RESIDENT EVIL: EXTINCTION

Fresh from Thursday’s Planet Hollywood premiere, this final installment of the trilogy inspired by the hit video game series finds a genetically altered Alice (Milla Jovovich), now equipped with superhuman strength, hiding in the Nevada desert (played by a Mexico desert) and leading the charge against the deadly virus that’s still threatening humanity. Returnees Oded Fehr and Mike Epps join newcomers Ali Larter, Spencer Locke and Ashanti. At multiple locations. (95 minutes) R; strong horror violence, nudity.

SYDNEY WHITE

“Snow White” goes to college as a tomboy freshman (Amanda Bynes) ditches her conniving sorority sisters to find a new home with seven nerdy outcasts. Sara Paxton, Matt Long, Jack Carpenter and Jeremy Howard co-star. At multiple locations. (90 minutes) PG-13; profanity, sexual humor, partying.

THE TEN

The Ten Commandments get the sketch-comedy treatment in a spoofy survey of shalts and shalt-nots (from writer-director David Wain and co-writer Ken Marino, alumni of the cult comedy troupe the State) featuring Winona Ryder, Adam Brody, Rob Corddry, Gretchen Mol, Justin Theroux and Liev Schreiber — with Paul Rudd introducing the chapters while sparring with girlfriends past (Famke Janssen) and present (Jessica Alba). At the Suncoast. (95 minutes) R; profanity, drug use, nudity, pervasive crude sexual content.
