Spring break is long over, but that doesn’t mean you have to stop celebrating.

You’ve passed the age limit for most local egg hunts, and you might be a little too big for pictures with shopping center Easter bunnies, but there’s still plenty to do this Sunday around the Twin Cities.

FLICKS

“The Host”

AMC Rosedale

Hate it or love it, Stephanie Meyer’s work is back on the big screen. “The Host” swaps out the vampires and werewolves for aliens, but with the source material being from such a polarizing author, the plot probably isn’t too important.

“G.I. Joe: Retaliation”

AMC Rosedale

Sometimes you just want to see a ninja deflect a bullet with a sword. If you find yourself craving fantastical hyper-violence on Easter, the new 3D                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           G.I. Joe movie has your back. You’ll see plenty of gunfire, transforming motorcycles and London being destroyed by a single missile. Starring professional action heroes Channing Tatum, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Bruce Willis.
