Jude Law plays DOM HEMINGWAY, a larger-than-life safecracker with a loose fuse who is funny, profane, and dangerous. After twelve years in prison, he sets off with his partner in crime Dickie (Richard E. Grant) looking to collect what he's owed for keeping his mouth shut and protecting his boss Mr. Fontaine (Demian Birchir). After a near death experience, Dom tries to re-connect with his estranged daughter (Emilia Clarke), but is soon drawn back into the only world he knows, looking to settle the ultimate debt.

Simon James (Eisenberg) is a timid office clerk working in an ominous government organization. He is overlooked by his boss (Wallace Shawn) and colleagues, scorned by his mother, and ignored by Hannah (Wasikowska), the lovely copy room girl he pines for. Undermined and undervalued everywhere he turns, it seems that his directionless life couldn’t get any worse—until the arrival of James Simon, his new co-worker. James is both Simon's exact physical double and his opposite—confident, charismatic and seductive with women. To Simon's horror, James slowly starts taking over his life.

A crew of seasoned criminals led by the notorious Nam (Hu Jun), pulls off another smooth and violent armored car heist in broad daylight. Whoever tries to get in their way, they show no mercy. This humiliates and shames the police force. A hardboiled senior police inspector Lui (Andy Lau), hot on the trails of Nam, determines to put an end to this madness. But he soon comes face to face with the cruel reality that the usual police tactics are too futile to send these armed thieves behind bars. Extreme crime requires extreme justice, even if it means crossing his moral line.

1735. Tokugawa era Japan. The Inaba clan is struggling under the weight of the Tokugawa shogunate's demands. The Inaba clan's allegiance to Toyotomi during the war has earned them the designation of a 'Tozama clan', the name given to clans previously allied with enemy forces. Under Tokugawa rule, they are bound to use their money solely for the shogunate, unable to even repair their castle without permission. Even the slightest violation could mean annihilation for the clan. With a shogunate envoy in the castle, and spies in the ranks, the Inaba clan must watch their every move....A samurai classic in the making, BUSHIDO is story of one clan's struggle for justice against all odds!

롤러코스터

Actor Ha Jung-woo's directorial debut is a hilarious comedic romp revolving around a stormy, troubled flight with a Korean movie star, a business tycoon, paparazzi, and a monk on board! The pilot smokes nonchalantly at the cockpit, the crew is busy talking behind the passengers' backs, and the characters are all somewhat off-beat: the monk tries to convince the Korean star to become a vegetarian, the business tycoon's secretary is busy bossing everyone around, and a random woman wants the Korean star to give her an autograph telling him, "I want you."

HAWAII PREMIERE UNITED STATES 2014 | ENGLISH | 120M DIRECTOR Dayna Goldfine, Dan Geller CAST Cate Blanchett, Diane Kruger, Connie Nielsen SATURDAY, APRIL 5 / 12:00 PM / DOL | SUNDAY, APRIL 6 / 8:30 PM / DOL Darwin meets Hitchcock in this true-crime tale of paradise found and lost. THE GALAPAGOS AFFAIR: SATAN CAME TO EDEN is a fascinating documentary portrait of a 1930s murder mystery as strange and alluring as the famous archipelago itself. Fleeing conventional society, a Berlin doctor and his mistress start a new life on uninhabited Floreana Island. But after the international press sensationalizes the exploits of the Galapagos' "Adam and Eve", others flock there-including a selfstyled SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON and a gun-toting Viennese Baroness and her two lovers. Macabre yet inspiring, THE GALAPAGOS AFFAIR is a gripping parable of Robinson Crusoe adventure and utopian dreams gone awry.
