The fourth outing in the popular espionage action thriller
franchise based on the Jason Bourne novels by Robert Ludlum.
Written and directed by Tony Gilroy, who scripted the first three
films, the film moves away from the central Bourne character
(played in the opening trilogy by Matt Damon) to focus on a new
protagonist, CIA operative Aaron Cross (Jeremy Renner). The film,
which takes up events where 'The Bourne Ultimatum' left off, sees
Cross making the vow to give himself over completely to 'the
operation', and quickly proving himself to be the shining star in a
new generation of deadly undercover assassins. Rachel Weisz and
Edward Norton co-star, while pivotal roles from the previous films
are reprised by Joan Allen, David Strathairn, Albert Finney and
Scott Glenn.
Jennifer Lawrence reprises her role as Katniss Everdeen in the
second instalment of the sci-fi adventure trilogy based on the
novel by Suzanne Collins. Fresh from her triumph in the 74th Annual
Hunger Games, Katniss, along with fellow winner Peeta Mellark (Josh
Hutcherson), returns home to District 12 for some much needed rest.
But soon after, while on a 'Victory Tour' of the other districts,
she becomes aware of growing dissent to the Capitol's rule, and
realises that rebellion is in the air. As Panem prepares itself for
the third 'Quarter Quell' (75th Hunger Games), autocratic ruler
President Coriolanus Snow (Donald Sutherland), still smarting from
the Capitol's humiliation in the last games, stacks the deck to
ensure that the upcoming tournament will wipe out any resistance
from the districts once and for all.

Baltasar Kormįkur directs this tense thriller about a couple's
desperate race against time to save their daughter's life. With
their daughter Chloe (Mia Stallard) suffering from a rare
degenerative lung disease and donor organs in short supply, Paul
and Diane Stanton (Dermot Mulroney and Diane Kruger) travel to

With time running out and their search for a donor faltering, Paul
soon realises he'll have to do whatever it takes, legal or

Double bill of films from the hugely popular 'Batman' franchise. In
'Batman Begins' (2005), in the wake of his parents' murder,
disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) travels
the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear
against those who prey on the fearful. He returns to Gotham and
unveils his alter-ego: Batman, a masked crusader who uses his
strength, intellect and an array of high-tech deceptions to fight
the sinister forces that threaten the city. 'The Dark Knight'
(2008) sees Gotham's avenging angel squaring up to a new kid on the
block - psychotic prankster, the Joker (Heath Ledger). In the space
of a year, Batman (Bale), aided by Commissioner Gordon (Gary
Oldman) and new District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart), has
managed to rid Gotham's streets of the organised crime gangs that
once ravaged the city. Things seem to be looking up, although on
the personal front, Bruce Wayne discovers he has a rival in his
affections for main squeeze Rachel Dawes (Maggie Gyllenhaal) in the
shape of the new DA who, as a political climber, likes to keep his
cards close to his chest. But just when the authorities think
they're finally making progress in their fight against crime, the
appearance on the streets of a sinister new figure, with a demented
grin and a passion for chaos, causes panic among the good people of
Gotham, and leads to a battle of wits between Batman and the Joker
which threatens to get extremely personal.
