>Almost Famous Don't miss this wistful coming-of-age story about a 15-year-old rock writer out on the road. (R)

Best in Show There are laughs aplenty in writer-director-star Christopher Guest's dandy mockumentary about wacky dog owners. (PG-13)

Get Carter Get gone. Sylvester Stallone clomps through an inept thriller about a revenge-minded hit man. (R)

Remember the Titans Touchdown! Denzel Washington scores as the coach of a newly integrated high school football team in a likable family film. (PG)
