Based on an autobiography of Winnie Mandela, the movie moves from a remote tribal village to the sprawling metropolis of Johannesburg, South Africa, as a proud young Winnie (Jennifer Hudson) finds love with a rising political star, Nelson Mandela (Terrence Howard). When Nelson was imprisoned for protesting the brutal Apartheid government, Winnie worked tirelessly to win his freedom and to carry on his message of peace and equality. Her struggle to keep the Mandela dream alive was rewarded by years of persecution and imprisonment, including 18 months of solitary confinement. Throughout, her resolve to fight for her freedom, her family and her country never wavered. Her leadership and unconquerable spirit caught the attention of the world and earned her the name "the mother of the nation."

Wizard Of Oz IMAX 3D

In Movie Theaters September 20, 2013

 

The Wizard Of Oz IMAX 3D release date September 20, 2013
Watch The Wizard Of Oz IMAX 3D trailer below.
Adapted from L. Frank Baum’s timeless children’s tale about a Kansas girl’s journey over the rainbow, The Wizard of Oz opened at Grauman’s Chinese Theater on August 15, 1939. The film was directed by Victor Fleming (who that same year directed Gone With the Wind), produced by Mervyn LeRoy, and scored by Herbert Stothart, with music and lyrics by Harold Arlen and E.Y. Harburg. DOROTHY was portrayed by a 4'11" sixteen-year-old girl who quickly earned her reputation as “the world’s greatest entertainer” — the incomparable Judy Garland. Ray Bolger appeared as the SCARECROW; Bert Lahr as the COWARDLY LION, Jack Haley as the TIN MAN. Frank Morgan was seen in six different roles, including that of the wonderful “Wizard of Oz" himself.
The Wizard of Oz received five Academy Award nominations , including Best Picture (Outstanding Production), and captured two Oscars - Best Song (“Over the Rainbow”) and Best Original Score -- plus a special award for Outstanding Juvenile Performance by Judy Garland.
The film was an overwhelmingly popular and critical success upon its initial release and repeated its ability to captivate audiences when MGM reissued the film in 1949 and 1955.
The film made a new kind of history with its network television premiere in 1956 on CBS. Nearly 45 million people tuned in for this initial telecast, marking the beginning of an annual tradition. Ever since, The Wizard of Oz has been shown virtually annually on network (and then cable) television; its magical story and heartfelt performances have enabled it to grow from a perennial classic to its current status as a treasured icon of popular culture.
STARRING: Judy Garland, Frank Morgan, Jack Haley, Bert Lahr

Watch the Enough Said trailer, the final film starring the late James Gandolfini, below.
In the movie Enough Said a divorced woman who decides to pursue the man she's interested in learns he's her new friend's ex-husband.
A big screen soap opera, for sure. But we can't wait to see it during its world debut at the 2013 Toronto Film Festival, since it features James Gandolfini in his last big screen starring role, and a fantastic supporting cast (with the exception of Julia Louis-Dreyfus).

STARRING: James Gandolfini, Toni Collette, Catherine Keener, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Ben Falcone

Battle Of The Year

In Movie Theaters September 13, 2013

 

When does Battle Of The Year come out? September 13, 2013.
Watch the Battle Of The Year trailer below, starring Chris Brown.
Although the Battle Of The Year trailer might come off as if the movie is a documentary, it is hardly one.
Battle Of The Year is an international dance crew tournament that attracts all the best teams from around the world, but the Americans haven’t won in fifteen years.
Los Angeles Hip Hop mogul Dante (Laz Alonso) wants to put the country that started the Sport back on top. He enlists his hard-luck friend Blake (Josh Holloway), who was a championship basketball coach, to coach his team. Armed with the theory that the right coach can make any team champions, they assemble a Dream Team of all the best dancers across the country.
With only three months until Battle of the Year, Blake has to use every tactic he knows to get twelve talented individuals to come together as a team if they're going to bring the Trophy back to America where it started.

STARRING: Josh Holloway, Laz Alonso, Josh Peck, Caity Lotz, Chris Brown
DIRECTED BY: Benson Lee
STUDIO: Columbia Pictures
RATING: PG-13 (For language, violence, sexual situations)

Rush

In Movie Theaters September 20, 2013

 

Rush release date September 20, 2013
Watch the Rush trailer below.
Yet another racing movie, this one from Ron Howard (Oscar winning director of A Beautiful Mind) and Peter Morgan, who was nominated for a Best Screenplay Oscar for writing the movie The Queen.
Set against the sexy, glamorous golden age of Formula 1 racing in the 1970's, the movie Rush, directed by Oscar winner Ron Howard, is an action-drama based on real events starring Chris Hemsworth (The Avengers) and Daniel Brühl (Inglourious Basterds).
The movie Rush focuses on the unique sporting rivalry between handsome English playboy racer James Hunt (Chris Hemsworth), and his tough, methodical, brilliant opponent Niki Lauda, (Daniel Bruhl) and the legendary Formula 1 season of 1976.
Rush follows their distinctly different lives and loves on and off the track, (Olivia Wilde as Suzy Hunt and Alexandra Maria Lara as Marlene Lauda) and builds to a thrilling, nail-biting climax where both drivers put their lives on the line to become world champion in a sport with no margin for error: if you make a mistake, you die.
There has never been a serious movie, with A-list actors, about car racing that has been a box office hit. Tom Cruise tried it with Paul Newman in the bomb Days Of Thunder. Speed Racer, anyone?
Throw in an action movie series about stealing cars and racing them and you have the successful The Fast And The Furious franchise. Car racing + comedy and you have the Smokey & The Bandit franchise, and The Cannonball Run franchise, both of which did great box office business. Disneyfy car racing and you get the Herbie movies, which were all marginally successful in the 1970s and 1980s.
Not sure how Universal thinks that this movie, Rush, no matter who is featured in it, will make any money at the box office, because we are positive that it will be a bomb of epic proportions. Maybe even a bigger bomb than Days Of Thunder.
STARRING: Chris Hemsworth, Daniel Brühl, Olivia Wilde
DIRECTED BY: Ron Howard
STUDIO: Universal Pictures
RATING: R (For violence, language, nudity, sexual situations)

Metallica Through The Never 

 

In Movie Theaters September 27, 2013

Metallica Through The Never release date September 27, 2013
Watch Metallica Through The Never trailer below.
Metallica Through The Never debuts exclusively in IMAX theatres for a one-week engagement starting Friday, September 27, 2013.
The film expands into additional theatres on October 4, 2013.
The director (of Predators) with a completely ridiculous name, Nimrod Antal, created what the movie studio wants you to believe is a groundbreaking 3-D motion picture event, Metallica Through the Never. The music-driven feature film combines a bold narrative and spectacular live-performance footage of one of the most popular and influential heavy metal bands in history to produce a bracing, raw and visceral cinematic experience. Emerging young star Dane DeHaan portrays Trip, a youngroadie sent on an urgent mission during Metallica's roaring live set in front of a sold-out arena.
As the band performs its most iconic songs for thousands of their fans in a never-before-seen performance created exclusively for the film, Trip is dispatched outside the arena to meet a disabled delivery truck and recover a mysterious item being transported to the show. But the seemingly simple assignment turns into a surreal adventure when his car is hit by an out-of-control driver. Trip, dazed and bruised, climbs out of his van only to find himself pitched in the middle of a tense standoff between angry protesters and charging riot police. In the ensuing mayhem, a vicious masked horseman sets his murderous eye on Trip while delivering indiscriminate deathblows to rioters and cops alike. Fleeing through the desolate, post-apocalyptic urban streetscape, Trip has only his wits to protect him as he attempts to deliver the band's precious cargo and avoid becoming the horseman's next victim.
Featuring dazzling (?) pyrotechnics, the most elaborate live-performance stage ever built and imagery drawn from the band's trailblazing iconography, the immersive 360-degree show creates a mind-bending, ear-shattering mirror image of the destruction and chaos of Trip's journey. Metallica Through The Never's state-of-the-art 3-D photography, captured using up to 24 cameras simultaneously, engulfs audiences in, again, as what the studio wants you to believe is "one of the most innovative and exciting cinematic experiences ever imagined."
Metallica Through The Never features James Hetfield (vocals, guitar), Lars Ulrich (drums), Kirk Hammett (guitar, background vocals) and Robert Trujillo (bass, background vocals). The band Metallica has sold over 105 million albums worldwide and was one of the top ten grossing touring act of 2012, generating $86.1 million in ticket sales from just 30 shows.
STARRING: Dane DeHaan, Lars Ulrich, James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Robert Trujillo
