Clint Eastwood's completion of the Iwo Jima saga. Here the action
is seen from the Japanese point of view and the film is based on
the book 'Picture Letters from Commander in Chief' by Tadamichi
Kuribayashi. The island of Iwo Jima stands between the American
military force and the home islands of Japan. Therefore the
Imperial Japanese Army is desperate to prevent it from falling into
American hands and providing a launching point for an invasion of
Japan. General Tadamichi Kuribayashi (Ken Watanabe) is given
command of the forces on the island and sets out to prepare for the
imminent attack. General Kuribayashi, however, does not favour the
rigid traditional approach recommended by his subordinates, and
resentment and resistance fester among his staff.

Classic creature comedy horror directed by Joe Dante and produced
by Steven Spielberg. When Billy Peltzer (Zach Gilligan) is given
the cute and friendly little Mogwai, Gizmo (voiced by Howie
Mandel), for Christmas, he is told never to expose it to bright
light, get it wet or ever feed it after midnight. But one night
when a glass of water is accidentally spilled over little Gizmo,
Billy soon finds out why he was told to follow this advice as Gizmo
begins to convulse, producing five new Mogwai. As Billy and his
science teacher, Mr. Hanson (Glynn Turman), then seek to find out
more about the creatures, a series of events lead to the escape of
a number of them; and due to their heightened intelligence they
know exactly how to replicate themselves. Soon after, the town is
overrun by a new breed of Mogwai - the 'Gremlins' - who are
menacing little reptilian creatures, and far from friendly.

Few filmmakers, if any, make the kind of impact that Martin
Scorsese has made on American cinema. The winner of every
prestigious film award, including the Oscar, Scorsese is a living
legend. Bestselling author and award-winning filmmaker Mary Pat
Kelly's groundbreaking biography reveals how this working-class boy
from Manhattan's Little Italy became one of our most acclaimed,
celebrated, and influential filmmakers. Martin Scorsese: A Journey
maps Scorsese's personal and artistic evolution though his films,
from early works like student films and Mean Streets through
cinematic masterpieces like Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The King of
Comedy, Goodfellas. Across interviews with Scorsese himself; stars
like Robert De Niro, Paul Newman, Liza Minelli, and Nick Nolte;
colleagues including screenwriters and cinematographers; as well as
family and friends, it reveals the story of a man in a way that
only his community and fellow artists can, giving us unprecedented,
intimate access to the making of these iconic films and the
extraordinary mind behind them. Brimming with insight into
Scorsese's life, values, process, humor, and inspirations, it is a
remarkable account of America's premiere director, the shepherd of
countless imaginations.
Directed by Michael Bay and produced by Steven Spielberg, this
sci-fi action adventure is the fourth instalment in the film series
based on the 1980s cartoons. Four years after the invasion of
Chicago, mechanic and single parent Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg)
discovers what he believes to be a dilapidated truck and takes it
home to repair. What he really has resting in his garage is a
deactivated Optimus Prime (voiced by Peter Cullen). When government
officials learn of the discovery they try to push humanitarian
boundaries in the name of scientific development.
