Each week, NeighborhoodCircle.com outlines the week's newest theatrical releases, links to reviews from Sun-Times critic Roger Ebert and NeighborhoodCircle.com writers and readers, and tells you where they're playing in the Lake County area.

And those links to reviews can include yours! That's right, we're eager to hear your opinions on any of the movies now playing - or even something gone to video already. Share it in NeighborhoodCircle.com and we'll be sure to feature your review and add a link from this column as well.

On July 24, the Deerfield Public Library presents a "Dinner and a Movie" program for families at 6 p.m.

On July 25, don't miss "Rock 'n' Roll Movie Night" outdoors at the Lake County Discovery Museum where they'll be showing School of Rock under the stars.

If you have a film event coming up that you'd like us to include, drop us a line at bthomas@neighborhoodcircle.com.
