HANCOCK (PG13) Sorry No
Passes
There are heroes...there are superheroes...and then there's Hancock (Will
Smith). With great power comes great responsibility—everyone knows
that—everyone, that is, but Hancock. Edgy, conflicted, sarcastic, and
misunderstood, Hancock's well-intentioned heroics might get the job done and
save countless lives, but always seem to leave jaw-dropping damage in their
wake. The public has finally had enough. As grateful as they are to have their
local hero, the good citizens of Los Angeles are wondering what they ever did to
deserve this guy. Hancock isn't the kind of man who cares what other people
think—until the day that he saves the life of PR executive Ray Embrey (Jason
Bateman), and the sardonic superhero begins to realize that he may have a
vulnerable side after all. Facing that will be Hancock's greatest challenge
yet—a task that may prove impossible as Ray's wife, Mary (Charlize Theron),
insists he's a lost cause. Directed by Peter Berg (The Kingdom, Friday Night
Lights).

MONGOL (R)
Award-winning
Russian filmmaker Sergei Bodrov (Prisoner of the Mountains)
illuminates the life and legend of Genghis Khan. Based on
leading scholarly accounts, his stunning historical epic
delves into the dramatic and harrowing early years of the
ruler who was born as Temudgin in 1162. As it follows Temudgin
from his perilous childhood to the battle that sealed his
destiny, the future conqueror is revealed not as the evil
brute of hoary stereotype, but as an inspiring, fearless and
visionary leader. In a performance of powerful stillness and
subtlety, celebrated young Japanese actor Asano Tadanobu (Zatoichi,
Last Life in the Universe) captures the inner fire that
enabled a hunted boy to become a legendary conqueror.
Masterfully blending action and emotion against some of the
most arresting terrain on earth, Bodrov delivers an exciting
and awe-inspiring tale of survival and triumph, and a love
story for the ages. Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign
Language Film. (Fully subtitled)

WANTED (R) Sorry No Passes
Based
upon Mark Millar's explosive graphic novel series and directed
by stunning visualist Timur Bekmambetov (Night Watch), this
action-packed thriller tells the tale of one apathetic
nobody's transformation into an unparalleled enforcer of
justice. Twenty-five-year-old Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy) was
the most disaffected, cube-dwelling drone the planet had ever
known until he met a woman named Fox (Angelina Jolie). After
his estranged father is murdered, the deadly sexy Fox recruits
Wes into the Fraternity, a secret society that trains Wes to
avenge his dad's death by unlocking his dormant powers. As she
teaches him how to develop lightning-quick reflexes and
phenomenal agility, Wes discovers this team lives by an
ancient, unbreakable code: carry out the death orders given by
fate itself. With wickedly brilliant tutors including the
Fraternity's enigmatic leader, Sloan (Morgan Freeman), Wes
grows to enjoy all the strength he ever wanted. But, slowly,
he begins to realize there is more to his dangerous associates
than meets the eye. And as he wavers between new found heroism
and vengeance, Wes will come to learn what no one could ever
teach him: he alone controls his destiny.
