The To Do List

Opens Friday, Jul 26, 2013 Synopsis: A high-school valedictorian makes a list of all of the sexual acts she wants to try before college, and seeks out the right partners to help expedite her sex education in this semiautobiographical comedy from writer/director Maggie Carey. The year is 1993. Brandy Klark (Aubrey Plaza) is the brainy teen who's always home studying while her friends are out partying. Now, as graduation looms, she starts to realize just how much fun she's been missing out on. Of course Brandy's grades are impressive, but how is a girl who's barely even kissed a guy supposed to handle the freedom of college life? In order to get a leg up, Brandy compiles a list of all of the erotic extracurricular activities she's missed out on and attempts to cross them off one by one. When the task proves more demanding than the previously chaste teen had anticipated, she rounds up a crew of her closest friends to help undertake some hilariously unconventional college prep. Johnny Simmons, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Rachel Bilson, and Andy Samberg co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Aubrey Plaza, Johnny Simmons, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Sarah Steele, Rachel Bilson Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review

White House Down

Opens Friday, Jun 28, 2013 Synopsis: A devoted father fights a ruthless paramilitary group that has seized control the White House in this high-stakes action thriller from director Roland Emmerich (2012) and writer James Vanderbilt (The Amazing Spider-Man). Dejected after being turned down for a position with the Secret Service but unable to break the news to his adoring daughter, Capitol Policeman John Cale (Channing Tatum) is taking her on a tour of the White House when a powerful explosion rips through the building sparking mass chaos. When the smoke clears, Cale learns that heavily-armed rebels have taken both his daughter (Joey King) and the president (Jamie Foxx) hostage. As news of the attack sparks mass panic and fear of total collapse, Cale realizes that the fate of his daughter, the Commander in Chief, and the entire nation rest in his willingness to fight back against the terrorists who have brought the most powerful nation on the planet to its knees. Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jason Clarke, Richard Jenkins, and James Woods co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Channing Tatum, Jamie Foxx, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jason Clarke, Richard Jenkins Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review

The Family

Opens Friday, Sep 13, 2013 Synopsis: An American ex-mafia boss and his family are transplanted to France through the witness protection program, but draw the attention of underworld figures who are determined to see them dead in this darkly humorous action comedy starring Robert DeNiro, and directed by Luc Besson. Brooklyn kingpin Fred Manzoni (DeNiro) had it all until the day he became a snitch. Now no matter how many times Agent Stansfield (Tommy Lee Jones) relocates Fred and his family, danger is never far behind. When they blow their cover once again, Fred, his wife Maggie (Michelle Pfeiffer), and their two kids Warren (John D'Leo) and Belle (Dianna Agron) are shipped off to a sleepy village in France. It seems like the perfect place to escape the long arm of the lawless until the criminally-inclined family resorts to their treacherous old ways, once again becoming a blip on the syndicate radar. Now the thugs are moving in, and they mean business. As the Manzoni's use their unique set of skills to survive the relentless storm of bullets, bombs, and rockets, the citizens of this peaceful French village suddenly find themselves in the middle of an all-out mafia warzone. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Cast: Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Tommy Lee Jones, Dianna Agron, John D'Leo Movie Details Play Trailer Buy Tickets Movie Review
