Our Brand is Crisis
What's the story? Sandra Bullock teams up with the makers of Argo for this provocative comedy-drama.
The year is 2002. An American political consulting firm, headed up by the feisty, determined Jane Bodine (Sandra Bullock), has been hired to help politician Pedro Castillo (Joaquim de Almeida) win the Bolivian presidential election.
However, Jane faces unexpected obstacles: not only does Castillo require ample media training but her old nemesis Pat Candy (Billy Bob Thornton) has appeared on the scene as a member of the opposition. As Jane battles to get her man into a position of power, the fate of an entire country hangs in the balance.
A fictionalised take on acclaimed documentary Our Brand Is Crisis, which explored the real-life tactics of consulting firm Greenberg Carville Schrum, this is a thought-provoking look at recent events. Produced by the team behind 2012 Oscar powerhouse Argo, the film is a fine showcase for the talents of Hollywood superstar Sandra Bullock.
Our Brand is Crisis opens on 22nd January 2016.
Ride Along 2
What's the story? Mismatched cops Ice Cube and Kevin Hart return in a riotous sequel to the action-comedy hit.
Bickering buddies Ben Barber (Kevin Hart) and James Payton (Ice Cube) are back! Annoying Ben is now a fully-fledged Atlanta cop who's engaged to long-suffering, tough-as-old-boots detective James's lovely sister, Angela (Tika Sumpter).
But just as this happy couple are preparing for their wedding, the unlikely cop partners are given a new assignment. Many of the drug dealers in Atlanta are being supplied by a Mr. Big named Antonio Pope (Benjamin Bratt), who operates out of Miami. The mission is to liaise with the Miami PD to take him down.
Now the stage is set for another explosive laugh riot, with larger-than-life Ben's hilarious undercover antics threatening to derail the entire investigation at every turn. X-Men's Olivia Munn and Hangover star Ken Jeong join the returning cast for this for this rib-tickling follow-up to the 2014 box office smash.
Ride Along 2 rides onto screens on 22nd January 2016.

Between riotous frat parties, bar fights, and an epic night of karaoke, Dick is on a quest to live his life to the fullest and bring Jason along for the ride.
