CAPSULES

The Informant! (Matt Damon, Scott Bakula, Joel McHale) An executive (Damon) with a corn-processing company becomes paranoid and turns whistleblower to the FBI when his company's global price-fixing scheme threatens his job. Logic would suggest that he tell the FBI agents (Bakula and McHale) all he knows, but that's not his style. Through the oversaturated visual style, cartoonish music and random voiceover narration, director Steven Soderbergh ("Traffic") is going for an oddball funny reality here, but only achieves unfunny oddball. Rated R. Jennifer's Body 1/2 (Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, Johnny Simmons) After an aspiring rock band fails to demonize her not-so-virginal

body, Jennifer (Fox)

becomes an undead demon who uses her beauty to prey on horny high school guys. Writer Diablo Cody ("Juno") and director Karyn Kusama ("Aeon Flux") have fashioned this horror comedy as a not-so subtle metaphor promoting abstinence, which is ironic given how eager it is to glorify Ms. Fox's sexuality.

If all you want is Ms. Fox being sexy and seductive, have at it. Rated R.
