HAYWIRE

This dynamic action-thriller directed by Oscar® winner Steven Soderbergh (Traffic) boasts a talented cast that includes Channing Tatum (GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra), Ewan McGregor (The Ghost Writer), Michael Fassbender (X-Men: First Class), Antonio Banderas (The Legend of Zorro), Bill Paxton (“Big Love”), Michael Douglas (Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps), Michael Angarano (Almost Famous); and introduces mixed martial arts (MMA) superstar Gina Carano as Mallory Kane, in a demanding lead role that has her performing her own high-adrenaline stunts.

Mallory Kane is a highly trained operative who works for a government security contractor in the dirtiest, most dangerous corners of the world. After successfully freeing a Chinese journalist held hostage, she is double crossed and left for dead by someone close to her in her own agency. Suddenly the target of skilled assassins who know her every move, Mallory must find the truth in order to stay alive.

Using her black-ops military training, she devises an ingenious—and dangerous—trap. But when things go haywire, Mallory realizes she’ll be killed in the blink of an eye unless she finds a way to turn the tables on her ruthless adversary.

The two begin hanging out and when George believes there is more than a friendship between them Sally puts on the brakes and loses his friendship in the process. When he realizes that he may not be able to go to college the next year and that his Mother would be very disappointed in him, George takes on a huge task. In order for him to graduate with his class he must complete every missed assignment and pass. If he can do so in the matter of two weeks he can walk across the stage with his fellow peers and move onto the next phase of his life.

With Sally out of his way as a distraction George begins his work. Will he finish in time and prove his teachers wrong? “The Art of Getting By” is a boring story about a boy who is lost and somehow finds himself when he finds love. Or what they make you think is love. There is a strong distraction with the actors, not sure if it is from the lack of chemistry of the fact that the boy who played ‘August Rush’ (Freddie Highmore) grew up overnight. There was not much to like from this film. The dialogue was bland; the story was lame and felt nothing like what real life is all about. “The Art of Getting By” is not doing a good job at getting by in the box office…I would look for your nearest exit.

Visionary.  Lover.  Dreamer.  Fighter.  Legend.  Icon.  AMELIA.   An extraordinary life of adventure, celebrity and continuing mystery comes to light in AMELIA, a vast, thrilling account of legendary aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart (two time Academy Award® winner Hilary Swank). 

After becoming the first woman to fly across the Atlantic, Amelia was thrust into a new role as America’s sweetheart – the legendary “goddess of light,” known for her bold, larger-than-life charisma. Yet, even with her global fame solidified, her belief in flirting with danger and standing up as her own, outspoken woman never changed.  She was an inspiration to people everywhere, from First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt (Cherry Jones) to the men closest to her heart: her husband, promoter and publishing magnate George P. Putnam (Golden Globe® winner Richard Gere), and her long time friend and lover, pilot Gene Vidal (Ewan McGregor).  In the summer of 1937, Amelia set off on her most daunting mission yet: a solo flight around the world that she and George both anxiously foresaw as destined, whatever the outcome, to become one of the most talked-about journeys in history.
