UNBROKENposterA.jpg
UNBROKEN (PG13)   Biography/Adventure  (2 hr 17 min--not including 8 to 12
min of previews)
Academy Award (R) winner Angelina Jolie directs and produces Unbroken, an
epic drama that follows the incredible life of Olympian and war hero Louis
"Louie" Zamperini (Jack O'Connell) who, along with two other crewmen,
survived in a raft for 47 days after a near-fatal plane crash in WWII-only
to be caught by the Japanese Navy and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp.
Director Jolie began shooting some of the most dramatic and challenging
scenes on Wednesday, October 16, on location far out at sea in Moreton Bay,
Australia, with Zamperini (O'Connell) and his fellow airmen-Phil (Domhnall
Gleeson) and Mac (Finn Wittrock)-having impossibly survived being adrift in
the open Pacific for several weeks. Working with cameras on a floating rig
in choppy waters and braving the elements, with actors dieting for months to
appear as depleted as their characters, Jolie completed a successful first
day of a location shoot that promises to be rigorous and uniquely
challenging. Adapted from Laura Hillenbrand's ("Seabiscuit: An American
Legend") enormously popular book, Unbroken brings to the big screen
Zamperini's unbelievable and inspiring true story about the resilient power
of the human spirit. Starring alongside O'Connell, Gleeson and Wittrock are
Garrett Hedlund and John Magaro as fellow POWs who find an unexpected
camaraderie during their internment,

HOBBITposter.jpg
THE HOBBIT: The Battle of the Five Armies (PG13)   Action/Adventure  (2 hr
22 min--not including 8 to 12 min of previews)
"The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" brings to an epic conclusion the
adventures of Bilbo Baggins, Thorin Oakenshield and the Company of Dwarves.
Having reclaimed their homeland from the Dragon Smaug, the Company has
unwittingly unleashed a deadly force into the world. Enraged, Smaug rains
his fiery wrath down upon the defenseless men, women and children of
Lake-town.
Obsessed above all else with his reclaimed treasure, Thorin sacrifices
friendship and honor to hoard it as Bilbo's frantic attempts to make him see
reason drive the Hobbit towards a desperate and dangerous choice. But there
are even greater dangers ahead. Unseen by any but the Wizard Gandalf, the
great enemy Sauron has sent forth legions of Orcs in a stealth attack upon
the Lonely Mountain.
As darkness converges on their escalating conflict, the races of Dwarves,
Elves and Men must decide unite or be destroyed. Bilbo finds himself
fighting for his life and the lives of his friends in the epic Battle of the
Five Armies, as the future of Middle-earth hangs in the balance.

IMIGAMEquad.jpg

THE IMITATION GAME (PG13)   Mystery/Suspense/Drama  (1 hr 54 min--not
including 8 to 12 min of previews)
During the winter of 1952, British authorities entered the home of
mathematician, cryptanalyst and war hero Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch)
to investigate a reported burglary. They instead ended up arresting Turing
himself on charges of 'gross indecency', an accusation that would lead to
his devastating conviction for the criminal offense of homosexuality -
little did officials know, they were actually incriminating the pioneer of
modern-day computing. Famously leading a motley group of scholars,
linguists, chess champions and intelligence officers, he was credited with
cracking the so-called unbreakable codes of Germany's World War II Enigma
machine. An intense and haunting portrayal of a brilliant, complicated man,
THE IMITATION GAME follows a genius who under nail-biting pressure helped to
shorten the war and, in turn, save thousands of lives. 

With an outstanding starring performance from Benedict Cumberbatch
illuminating its fact-based story, The Imitation Game serves as an eminently
well-made entry in the "prestige biopic" genre.
