Can Tyler Perry strike gold for the second week in a row? After knocking everyone out of the box with his $24 million opening for 'I Can Do Bad All By Myself' will the power of Madea be big enough to hold off films from Matt Damon, Megan Fox or Jennifer Aniston?

In 'The Informant!' Mark Whitacre (Damon) has worked for lysine-developing company ADM for many years and has even found his way into upper management. But nothing has prepared him for the job he is about to undertake: being a spy for the FBI. Unwillingly pressured into working as an informant against the illegal price-fixing activities of his company, Whitacre gradually adopts the idea that he's a true secret agent. But as his incessant lies keep piling up, his world begins crashing down around him.

Oscar winner Diablo Cody ('Juno') is the writer of 'Jennifer's Body,' which stars Megan Fox as a newly possessed cheerleader-turned-killer who specializes in offing her male classmates. Can her best friend put an end to the horror?

Jennifer Aniston returns to the big screen in the romantic drama 'Love Happens,' which is the story of a widower (Aaron Eckhart) whose book about coping with loss turns him into a best-selling self-help guru. On a business trip to Seattle, he falls for a woman (Aniston) who attends one of his seminars, only to learn that he hasn't yet truly confronted his wife's passing.

For those who didn't catch last season's finale of 'Grey's Anatomy,' where George looks to bite the bullet, the complete fifth season is now available on DVD. Catch up on the love affair between Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek McDreamy (Patrick Dempsey), as well as the introduction of several newcomers, including military doctor Owen (Kevin McKidd).

Izzie's love for Alex (Justin Chambers) grows as "Dead Denny" (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) looms nearby. There was plenty of excitement last year, so watch the DVD before the new season begins.

In 'Cracked Not Broken,' Lisa was raised in the right part of town, she went to the right schools and had the right friends. But somewhere along the way, something went terribly wrong. At age 37, Lisa is a mother and a crack addict who prostitutes herself to help support her drug habit. Get a glimpse into the harsh reality and chaotic lifestyle of drug addiction. This film will force you to examine all of your stereotypes about the addicted.
