THE BIG WEDDING – Opens 04/25/13 @ 9pm!

With an all-star cast led by Robert De Niro, Katherine Heigl, Diane Keaton, Amanda Seyfried, Topher Grace, with Susan Sarandon and Robin Williams, “The Big Wedding” is an uproarious romantic comedy about a charmingly modern family trying to survive a weekend wedding celebration that has the potential to become a full blown family fiasco. To the amusement of their adult children and friends, long divorced couple Don and Ellie Griffin (De Niro and Keaton) are once again forced to play the happy couple for the sake of their adopted son’s wedding after his ultra conservative biological mother unexpectedly decides to fly halfway across the world to attend. With all of the wedding guests looking on, the Griffins are hilariously forced to confront their past, present and future – and hopefully avoid killing each other in the process.

42 – OPENS 04/11/13 @ 10pm!

Hero is a word we hear often in sports, but heroism is not always about achievements on the field of play. “42” tells the story of two men the great Jackie Robinson and legendary Brooklyn Dodgers GM Branch Rickey whose brave stand against prejudice forever changed the world by changing the game of baseball. In 1946, Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford) put himself at the forefront of history when he signed Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) to the team, breaking Major League Baseball’s infamous color line. But the deal also put both Robinson and Rickey in the firing line of the public, the press and even other players. Facing unabashed racism from every side, Robinson was forced to demonstrate tremendous courage and restraint by not reacting in kind, knowing that any incident could destroy his and Rickey’s hopes. Instead, Number 42 let his talent on the field do the talking ultimately winning over fans and his teammates, silencing his critics, and paving the way for others to follow.

Disney’s fantastical adventure “Oz The Great and  Powerful,” directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum’s  beloved character, the Wizard of Oz. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a  small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas  to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot–fame and fortune are  his for the taking–that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis),  Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he  is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic  problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is  good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use  through illusion, ingenuity–and even a bit of wizardry–Oscar transforms  himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man  as well.
