Now Playing

By Leah Rozen

•Bringing Down the House Steve Martin and Queen Latifah score mostly cheap laughs as, respectively, an uptight lawyer and : an escaped jailbird. (PG-13)

•The Girl from Paris An endearing comedy : about a Paris-based teacher (Mathilde Seigner) who moves to the country to become a farmer. (Not rated)

•Old School Male-bonding frat comedy has its moments, most of them provided by the divine Will Ferrell. (R)

•Piglet's Big Movie Another Disney adaptation of Winnie-the-Pooh. Snoozy, but fine for piglet-size children. (G)
