Romance, vengeance and burlesque: Thanksgiving movies to catch and to skip

The World

The biggest movie weekend of the year is upon us: there’s a lot to see. Mandy Moore stars in Disney’s “Tangled,” a new animated version of Rapunzel; Christina Aguilerra and Cher bare (almost) all in “Burlesque”; while Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal get caught in love’s addiction in “Love and Other Drugs.”

With so many options, it’s hard to choose. We ask movie contributor and Newsday film critic Rafer Guzman which movie is an absolute must see.
