New releases - what do you guys use as a guide?

Was a time I'd go to Blockbuster and check out the shelves but certain life events have made that difficult. I have been a Netflix member for years and would get candidates for my queue from there while I was picking up a movie from BB.
We don't go to the movies any more for a variety of reasons, and the cheap cable I get mostly stinks, so Netflix is it and anyway pretty much all we have time for.
While I read the movie reviews in the Atlanta paper I know they don't pick up all the nice new releases on video. We like foreign films and indies as well as more standard fare, so am looking for a source of info that will tell me new releases that are also highly reviewed or recommended. What do you suggest? (I know I need to come here more often, for one thing).
We also enjoy older movies from time to time, especially the big productions from what I like to think of as the grand age of cinema, but probably because they bring to mind times when I was a youth growing up in a country that only got the big-name movies. Recent hits in our home have been "the Bridge on the River Kwai" and "Khartoum".
