A day after being forced to drop out of Dancing with the Stars due to a ruptured Achilles tendon, Misty May-Treanor is at home with her husband, Matt, recovering from successful surgery.

The 31-year-old beach volleyball star, who won her second Olympic gold medal with teammate Kerry Walsh in Beijing in August, injured herself while rehearsing the jive with partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy last Friday, a dance she said she was especially excited to perform since it was the first time she’d be able to dance in sneakers instead of precarious heels. “Go figure,” she laughed.

Doctors estimate it will take approximately nine months of recovery and rehabilitation before Misty can return to the volleyball court.

Law Abiding Citizen See It or Skip It
F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

The Boys Are Back See It or Skip It
Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Jennifer's Body See it or Skip it
Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

See It or Skip It: World's Greatest Dad
Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
