Undefeated
more »
Undefeated is a coming-of-age underdog story of an underprivileged football team from the perspective of three student athletes from inner city Memphis and a volunteer coach. The Manassas Tigers football team was so woefully underfunded that the school made money by hiring the team out to serve as the punching bag team that traveled to the home stadiums of wealthy Tennessee teams for their homecoming games, where the home teams would give the visitors a whipping. Things began to change in 2004, when former high school coach and lumber salesman Bill Courtney volunteered to help. When he arrived, the team had 17 players, crappy equipment and terrible practice facilities. By 2009, Manassas was beating up on those wealthy nearby football teams in an effort to make the playoffs for the first time in the school’s 110-year history. More importantly, football begins to teach these young men the value of discipline, the importance of team-work, and above all the need to dream and work hard both on the field and off to attain the opportunity most of us take for granted – go to college. Undefeated is an inspiring documentary that has been nominated for a Critics Choice Award and shortlisted for a Documentary Oscar Nomination.

Safe

Tagline: She has the code. He is the key.

official site
Open: March 2, 2012

Lionsgate—Starring: Jason Statham, Chris Sarandon, Robert John Burke, Reggie Lee, Danny Hoch and James Hong

more »
A former elite agent encounters and fights to rescue a 12-year-old Chinese girl who’s been abducted by the Triads. Armed with a safe-cracking combination, they find themselves in the middle of a stand off between Triads, the Russian Mafia and high-level corrupt New York City politicians and police.

Sometimes a chance meeting can save your life.

Mei (Catherine Chan) is a 10 year-old Chinese math prodigy who is abducted from her home in Nanjing by the Triads; she is sent to America by the Triad Leader Han Jiao (James Hong), where she will serve as a ‘counter’ for their extortion racquets. No computers, no paper trails—she keeps all the numbers in her head. One year later Mei’s new adopted ‘father’ Chang (Reggie Lee) brings her along to count the numbers as he shakes-down his business operations.

Luke Wright (Jason Statham) is a second rate cage fighter in the mixed martial arts circuit in New Jersey. When he blows a rigged fight, the Russian mafia make an example of him—murdering his wife and threatening to kill anyone he forms any kind of friendship or relationship with. Now homeless, destitute and completely isolated from society, Luke wanders the streets of New York like a ghost, hovering on the edge of suicide.

Big things begin to stir in the city, when Triad boss Han Jiao appears in New York, and gives Mei a secret number to memorize; on her way to use this number for an unknown purpose, Mei is violently kidnapped from the Triads by the Russian Mafia, who want the information she now has in her head—as does the corrupt Captain Wolf (Robert John Burke) of the NYPD. Mei manages to escape, but she won’t be able to survive on her own for long.

Standing on a subway platform ready to throw himself under a train, Luke Wright sees the young and terrified Chinese girl being pursued by Russian thugs… he knows something is wrong, and he knows now he has to make a decision: continue on his downward spiral, or come back fighting in order to help a little girl he’s never even met. Luke comes back to life, forcing himself into violent action, and over the course of one harrowing night he tears a swath through the city’s underworld in order to save Mei’s life and redeem his own.

Salmon Fishing in the Yemen
Open: March 9, 2012 (limited)

Lionsgate, CBS Films—Director: Lasse Hallström—“Chocolat” / Starring: Emily Blunt, Ewan McGregor, Kristin Scott Thomas

more »
From Oscar-winning® screenwriter Simon Beaufoy (‘Slumdog Millionaire’), this new inspirational comedy is about an unlikely romantic pairing between a fisheries expert (played by Ewan McGregor) and finance consultant (Emily Blunt) as they attempt to bring fly-fishing to the desert.

The story of Dr. Alfred Jones, a fisheries scientist—for whom diary-notable events include the acquisition of a new electric toothbrush and getting his article on caddies fly larvae published in Trout and Salmon—who finds himself reluctantly involved in a project to bring salmon fishing to the Highlands of the Yemen—a project that will change his life, and the course of British political history forever.

Fred Jones (Ewan McGregor), a fisheries expert and academic who works for the British government. When he’s approached by Harriet Chetwode-Talbot (Emily Blunt) with a plan to introduce salmon into the waterways of Yemen for the purpose of sport fishing, he laughs off the scheme, claiming it impossible. Harriet acts as the British representative of an amiable and benevolent sheikh (Amr Waked), who fulfills his love of fishing on frequent trips to his estate in the ruggedly gorgeous Scottish highlands. The sheik believes that fishing creates a spiritual connection between humans and nature, and feels that bringing the sport to his country would benefit the people.

While Fred ponders the idea, the proposal catches the ear of the British prime minister’s spokesperson, Bridget Maxwell (Kristin Scott Thomas). Desperate to detract attention from some unwanted publicity, Bridget sees Harriet’s idea as the perfect opportunity to promote what will appear to be a heartfelt story of British goodwill in the Middle East. Despite Fred’s protests, he soon finds himself working on a project that seems not only frivolous but absolutely unfeasible in the arid land of Yemen. His skepticism is matched only by the sheikh’s boundless optimism. As the mission begins to succeed, Fred grows closer to Harriet. Despite the many obstacles that stand in the way of their romance, their relationship affords an unexpected and welcome sense of hope for two lonely individuals.

based on the 2006 novel of the same name by Paul Torday—“a book about inspiration, about hope, about belief and about seeing beyond the conventional”

When Snow White’s beauty wins the heart of the prince that she desperately pursues, the Queen banishes her to the forest, where a ravening man-eating beast hungrily awaits. Rescued by a band of diminutive highway robbers, Snow White grows into an indomitable young woman determined to take back her realm from the treacherous Queen.

A retelling of one of the most beloved fables of all-time, eschews the traditional story in favor of a more modern tale full of comedy and adventure—a light-hearted romp. After her evil stepmother kills her father and destroys the kingdom, Snow White bands together with a gang of seven quarrelsome dwarfs to reclaim what is rightly hers.

The film stars Oscar® winner Julia Roberts as the Queen, Lily Collins (‘The Blind Side’) as Snow White, Armie Hammer (‘The Social Networ’) as Prince Alcott, Sean Bean (‘Game of Thrones,’ ‘The Lord of the Rings’) as the King and Nathan Lane (‘The Lion King,’ ‘The Birdcage’) as the Queen’s hapless and bungling servant, Brighton. The evil queen steals control of the kingdom and the exiled princess enlists the help of seven resourceful rebels to win back her birthright in a spirited adventure comedy filled with jealousy, romance and betrayal.

When Snow White’s beauty wins the heart of the prince that she desperately pursues, the Queen banishes her to the forest, where a ravening man-eating beast hungrily awaits.

Rescued by a band of diminutive highway robbers, Snow White grows into an indomitable young woman determined to take back her realm from the treacherous Queen. With the support of her subjects, she roars into action in an epic battle that blends spectacle, magic and contemporary humor in Singh’s signature visual style.

A decade after his heroic defeat of the monstrous Kraken, Perseus-the demigod son of Zeus-is attempting to live a quieter life as a village fisherman and the sole parent to his 10-year old son, Helius. Meanwhile, a struggle for supremacy rages between the gods and the Titans. Dangerously weakened by humanity’s lack of devotion, the gods are losing control of the imprisoned Titans and their ferocious leader, Kronos, father of the long-ruling brothers Zeus, Hades and Poseidon. The triumvirate had overthrown their powerful father long ago, leaving him to rot in the gloomy abyss of Tartarus, a dungeon that lies deep within the cavernous underworld.

Perseus cannot ignore his true calling when Hades, along with Zeus’ godly son, Ares (Edgar Ramírez), switch loyalty and make a deal with Kronos to capture Zeus. The Titans’ strength grows stronger as Zeus’ remaining godly powers are siphoned, and hell is unleashed on earth. Enlisting the help of the warrior Queen Andromeda (Rosamund Pike), Poseidon’s demigod son, Argenor (Toby Kebbell), and fallen god Hephaestus (Bill Nighy), Perseus bravely embarks on a treacherous quest into the underworld to rescue Zeus, overthrow the Titans and save mankind.

Pirate Captain (Hugh Grant) sets out on a mission to defeat his rivals, Black Bellamy (Jeremy Piven) and Cutlass Liz (Salma Hayek),for the Pirate of the year Award. The quest takes the Captain and his hapless crew from the shores of exotic Blood Island to the foggy streets of Victorian London.

Hugh Grant, starring in his first animated role, is the luxuriantly bearded Pirate Captain—a boundlessly enthusiastic, if somewhat less-than-successful, terror of the High Seas. With a rag-tag crew at his side (Martin Freeman, Brendan Gleeson, Russell Tovey, and Ashley Jensen), and seemingly blind to the impossible odds stacked against him, the Captain has one dream: to beat his bitter rivals Black Bellamy (Jeremy Piven) and Cutlass Liz (Salma Hayek) to the much coveted Pirate of the Year Award.

It’s a quest that takes our heroes from the shores of exotic Blood Island to the foggy streets of Victorian London. Along the way they battle a diabolical queen (Imelda Staunton) and team up with a haplessly smitten young scientist (David Tennant), but never lose sight of what a pirate loves best: adventure!
