"2012"

End of the world as you know it movie with John Cusack, Amanda Peet, and others.  Mayan prophets mark the end of the world as the year 2012.  Scientist (in the movie) confirm the event when geologist observe a change in the Earth's core. Conspiracy theorist will enjoy this story with the "government cover-up" of giant arks built to withstand the apocalypse.

 

Safe first date movie that does a good job portraying one man's struggle to save his family that viewers can relate to.  Check it out some time!

"My One and Only"

Comedy with Renee Zellweger and Kevin Bacon as a married couple with marital problems in the 50's.  Kevin is a "one-hit wonder" big band leader who is always on the road.  Renee is his socialite wife.  After one too many affairs, Renee decides to leave Kevin, taking her two sons with her on a quest to find a new husband.  Renee's character is much too good for a job, she is instead the marrying type. After many mishaps and terrible relationships, Renee and her son find their calling and giving truth to her answer for all problems, "Everything will workout".

 

Good movie, safe first-date movie despite the broken marriage.  Certain that any strong relationship can withstand this movie's take on marriage.
