Friday’s openings: A little something for everyone

A full slate of movies opens on Friday, more movies than have opened at once all summer long. Chances are, at least some of them are worth viewing because the themes — from Christian bands to trains filled with zombies — are all over the place.

The week's movie openings are as follows:

"Blair Witch": A guy and his friends go into the woods to see if he can find out what happened to his sister. To their horror, they discover the answer. (To be specific, a sequel to 1999's "The Blair Witch Project.")

"Bridget Jones's Baby": Renee Zellweger returns yet again as the character who, this time, dallies with a billionaire (Patrick Dempsey) and one of her former flames (Colin Firth) and ends up … well, you read the title, right?

"Hillsong: Let Hope Rise": Let IMDB describe it: "A documentary on the Australia-based band Hillsong and their rise to prominence as an international church." Hallelujah, mate.

"Mr. Church": Eddie Murphy stars as a cook who develops a long-term relationship with a little girl whose mother is dying. Sounds like "Driving Miss Daisy" in the kitchen.

"Saturday's Warrior": Based on a 1973 college project, later released on video, this Mormon-themed musical tells the story of a group of kids who experience the whole realm of LDS life. Except for the seagulls.

"Snowden": Call him a traitor or hero, Edward Snowden (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) surely makes the perfect protagonist for an Olive Stone movie.

"Train to Busan": Korean filmmaker Yeon Sang-ho places his characters on a zombie-filled train and lets them fight for survival. Call it "The Riding Dead."
