| You've
got to love a movie that so eagerly assassinates its leading man's cuddly
image, and which also manages to blow a wicked kiss to Fatal Attraction. Peter Howell Toronto Star The movie is cheesy, tacky, and gimmicky. But as directed by Mark Waters, it's also prankish and inventive enough to be kind of fun. Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly I'm almost embarrassed to admit I found Ghosts of Girlfriends Past the season's first genuine guilty pleasure. Lou Lumenick New York Post |

| In 1958, as part of the dedication ceremony for a new elementary school, a group of students is asked to draw pictures to be stored in a time capsule. But one mysterious girl fills her sheet of paper with rows of apparently random numbers instead. Fifty years later, a new generation of students examines the capsule's contents and the girl's cryptic message ends up in the hands of young Caleb Koestler. But it is Caleb's father, professor John Koestler (Nicolas Cage), who makes the startling discovery that the encoded message predicts with pinpoint accuracy the dates, death tolls and coordinates of every major disaster of the past 50 years. When John's attempts to alert the authorities fall on deaf ears, he takes it upon himself to try to prevent more destruction from taking place. | ||

| Sabine (Arsinee Khanjian), a high school French teacher, gives her class a translation exercise based on a real news story about a terrorist who plants a bomb in the airline luggage of his pregnant girlfriend. The assignment has a profound effect on one student, Simon (Devon Bostick), who lives with his uncle (Scott Speedman). In the course of translating, Simon re-imagines that the news item is his own family's story, with the terrorist standing in for his father. Years ago, Simon's father (Noam Jenkins) crashed the family car, killing both himself and his wife (Rachel Blanchard), making Simon an orphan. Simon has always feared that the accident was intentional. Simon reads his version to the class and then takes it to the Internet. In essence, he has created a false identity which allows him to probe his family secret. As Simon uses his new persona to journey deeper into his past, the public reaction is swift and strong. Then an exotic woman reveals her true identity. The truth about Simon's family emerges. The mystery is solved and a new family is formed. | ||

THE ESCAPIST | |
|
FEATURING: Brian Cox, Damian Lewis, |
||
| Frank Perry (Cox, in a role written specifically for him) is a lifer and has long accepted that he will never see the outside again. A solid and phlegmatic character, he holds his own but neither attracts nor creates any trouble. Grief is far more likely to be started by the psychotic and drug-addled Tony (Mackintosh), brother to the ruthless head con Rizza (Lewis, who reportedly based his character's mannerisms on a mixture of Tony Blair and Chris Eubank). However, when Frank receives a rare letter telling him that his cherished daughter is near death following an overdose, he starts to think about escaping, and fast. He's got a plan and he needs help. Soon a mismatched crew of all the talents comes together, with Lenny Drake (Fiennes), Brodie (Cunningham), Viv Batista (Jorge) and Cox's new cellmate James Lacey (Cooper) each pitching in. | ||

| A
tasty neo-noir from the James M. Cain school of lust-driven dirty dealings. Richard Kuipers Variety Though it falls ever so short of being tagged as great, this accomplished and genuinely gripping crime drama is worthy of your time, money and attention. Leigh Paatsch Herald Sun (Australia) For all intents and purposes a film noir of classic proportions, The Square has such a good story it deserves to be seen without knowing too many details about the plot. So I'll avoid plot points, but to say that it is driven by love, betrayal and greed. Andrew L. Urban Urban Cinefile |

GAME 6 | |
|
FEATURING:
Michael Keaton, |
||
| Michael Keaton is Nicky Rogan, a Red Sox fan living in New York who is also a playwright hoping that his new work revives his career. It is opening night for the play — Oct. 25, 1986, a date burned into the memories of both Red Sox and Mets fans. Yes, that's right, it was the ball-through-Bill-Buckner's-legs game. As Nicky ricochets through the portent-laden day toward curtain and game time, we meet his mistress (Bebe Neuwirth), his daughter (Ari Graynor), his playwriting pal (Griffin Dunne) and a bunch of foreign cabdrivers stuck in traffic. Looming over it all is a fearsome theater critic (Robert Downey Jr.), and as things drag on, you can ask yourself: which seems longer ago, the days when anyone cared about whether the Red Sox would ever win the series, or the days when a lone theater critic had the clout to terrify Broadway | ||

ANVIL! THE STORY OF ANVIL |
|
| FEATURING:
Tiziana Arrigoni, Kevin Goocher, Glenn Gyorffy, William Howell, Steve 'Lips' Kudlow |
||
| At 14, best friends Robb Reiner and Steve “Lips” Kudlow made a pact to rock together forever. Their band, Anvil, hailed as the "demi-gods of Canadian metal, " influenced a musical generation that includes Metallica, Slayer, and Anthrax, despite never hitting the big time. Director Sacha Gervasi has concocted a wonderful and often hilarious account of Anvil's last-ditch quest for elusive fame and fortune. His ingenious filmmaking may first lead you to think this a mockumentary, but it isn't. It's fascinating to see the reality of their day-to-day lives as they struggle to make ends meet, take a misguided European tour, and engage in antics on the road—which is not always lined with fans. | ||

Documentary / Music Director: Sacha Gervasi Producers: Rebecca Yeldham Runtime: 90 Minutes Rating: Not Rated Versions: Theatrical |

The
new documentary Anvil! The Story of Anvil succeeds every which way, as
'80s metal nostalgia, as a twisted sort of reality-show attempt at a comeback,
as an unexpectedly touching portrait of a friendship. |

| Living in perfect harmony in gravity-defying cities above the clouds, the inhabitants of the planet Terra are complete strangers to war. So when Terra is invaded by human beings fleeing a civil war and environmental catastrophe, many of the Terrians at first welcome the invaders as gods. Only the feisty young Mala (Evan Rachel Wood) fights back, luring one of the invading spacecrafts to destruction after her father is abducted, then rescuing its pilot—a human named Jim (Luke Wilson). In return for saving his life, Jim promises to help Mala find her father, taking her on a perilous journey to the Ark—the humans’ aging mother ship. Along the way, Mala and Jim learn that their people really aren’t so different from one another. But with the Earthforce army poised to invade Terra and render it uninhabitable for Terrians, Mala and Jim must find a way to help the two races coexist—before it’s too late. | ||
