Two brothers attempt to pull off a heist during a NASCAR race in North Carolina.
As to be expected by this director, this movie is well executed with a good script and a prime ensemble of actors, has humor and some suspense, but who needs yet another heist movie?
The story follows Jack, a highly intelligent serial killer, over the
course of twelve years, and depicts the murders that really develop his
inner madman.
Beyond the serial killer portrait and some truly disturbing scenes this is an excellently complex exploration of human existence and the frailty and ambiguity of art - and a self-critical reflection of von Trier's previous œuvre.
After the deaths of three children suspected to be killed by wolves,
a writer is hired by the mother of a missing six-year-old
boy to track down and locate their son in the Alaskan wilderness.

give any explanation or sense to what's going on.

Two years after the afterlife is scientifically proven, a man attempts to help a young woman break away from her dark past.
An intriguing premise is muddled by a half-hearted treatment and a disappointing ending, and the central romance between Mara and Segel is simply mismatched.
A coming-of-age biographical film about the 1970s teenage all-girl rock band The Runaways.
The movie has a good cast and some accurate period detail and emphasizes the conflicts within the band, but is slow-paced and hardly captures the thrill and excitement of an up-and-coming rock'n'roll band.
Maltin***: "Although the genre is well worn, this telling seems genuine and fresh; Fanning and Shannon are exceptionally good...Impressive feature debut for Sigismondi..."
