Sunday Roundup

For those who like their entertainment served up with a side order of substance, this might be a good Sunday to hit the local multiplex. Topping the list of new socially-relevant flicks is, Richard Linklater's gristly expose of all the unhappiness that goes into serving up a Happy Meal. Audiences in New York and Los Angeles can check out, featuring an all-star cast -- and powerful, stirring archival clips of Bobby Kennedy. For those who didn't get their fill of sharp-elbowed political in-fighting this week, there's the Hollywood award season jockeying in Christopher Guest's, featuring HuffPost's own. Even, the animated singing-and-dancing- penguin movie, delivers a powerful environmental message. For more substantive entertainment, check out our Sunday Roundup below.
