    The great Jeff Bridges has been nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for his starring role in Crazy Heart - the film's superb music also earned an Oscar nomination for Original Song.

    Bad Blake (Jeff Bridges) is a drunken old country music singer scraping a living in backwater bowling alleys and third-rate piano bars. His fleeting fame behind him, the best Bad can hope for is to open a big concert for his former protege, Tommy Sweet (Colin Farrell), who - unlike his mentor - managed to become rich and famous. One gig blurs into the next until one night in Santa Fe, Bad falls for local journalist Jean Craddock (Maggie Gyllenhaal), a single mother with a few regrets of her own. In his attempt to find salvation with Jean, Bad is forced to face his demons and confront a life of regrets. As he pours his private sorrow into the best songs he's ever written, Bad learns the hard way just how tough life can be on one man's crazy heart.

    Nominated for nine Academy Awards - including Best Picture and Best Director - and breaking box office records at Cineworlds all over the UK, the most spectacular 3D film ever is now officially the biggest movie of all time!   In 1997 director James Cameron gave us Titanic - the biggest movie ever. Now, with the all-conquering Avatar, he's done it again! Amazingly, it's been 15 years since Cameron dreamt up the idea for Avatar. Back then, the special effects needed to bring his vision to the big screen didn't exist. Today they do! Set on the distant planet of Pandora, the film stars Sam Worthington as Jake Sully a disabled soldier whose consciousness is implanted into an Avatar - an artificial body which enables him to survive on the deadly planet. The avatar is made using the DNA of Pandora's inhabitants, the Na'vi. With hostilities escalating between the Na'vi and the human intruders, Jake meets a native female named Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) - and begins a journey towards his incredible destiny.

    From the studio that brought us Shrek, Madagascar and Kung Fu Panda comes a new animated action-comedy set in a mythical world of Vikings and dragons.

    How To Train Your Dragon is the story of Viking teenager Hiccup (Jay Baruchel), who lives on the island of Berk, where strength and prowess in battle are everything and fighting dragons is a way of life. But hapless Hiccup doesn't exactly fit in with his tribe's longstanding traditions. The time of initiation is coming, and this is Hiccup's one chance to prove his worthiness to his tribe and father. But when he encounters and befriends an injured dragon, Hiccup's world is turned upside down. His unexpected friendship with a dragon challenges him - and his fellow Vikings - to see the world from an entirely different point of view. Based on the book by Cressida Cowell, the tale of Hiccup and his dragon-taming exploits is sure to become a family favourite.

    Oscar-nominated for for Best Picture and Best Actress, the feelgood drama of the year stars Golden Globe-winning Sandra Bullock as a mother who transforms a homeless teenager into a star athlete.

    Homeless and under-educated African-American teenager Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron) has precious little going for him. A gentle giant, he's isolated at school and traumatized by the gangsters in his run-down neighbourhood. A shadow of the person he should be, it's not until he befriends a young boy named SJ Tuohy (Jae Head) and gets taken under the wing of SJ's mother Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock) that Michael gets the help he needs to reach his true potential. The gutsy matriarch of a well-off white family, Leigh Anne is determined to help Michael overcome the adversities he faces from his family, teachers and peers. With his new home environment and adopted family, Michael makes steady progress, and ultimately sets off on the road towards becoming an All-American sporting hero.

    The visionary director of Amelie returns with another magical comedy...

    Bazil (Dany Boon) doesn't have much luck when it comes to weapons. When he was a child, his parents were killed by a bomb in the Moroccan desert. Years later, as an adult, his life is seriously endangered when a freak accident leaves a stray bullet lodged in his brain. Leaving hospital with the knowledge that he could die suddenly at any moment, Bazil is homeless and hopeless. Luckily for him, he falls in with a motley crew of modern-day ragpickers - Remington, Calculator, Fracasso, Cupboard The Rubber Mome, Pierre Petit and Tambouille. As eccentric as they are talented, these 'Micmacs' live their remarkable subterranean lives in a home that resembles Ali Baba's cave of delights. One day, while passing two imposing buildings, Bazil recognizes the initials of the two arms manufacturers that caused his misfortunes. Aided by his plucky gang of cranks, he decides to take revenge...

    A fox-tastic animated extravaganza from director Wes Anderson based on the children's classic by Roald Dahl.

     

    Mr Fox (George Clooney) enjoys an idyllic home life with Mrs Fox (Meryl Streep), their son Ash (Jason Schwartzman) and visiting nephew Kristopherson (Eric Anderson). But after 12 years, this bucolic existence proves too much for Mr Fox's wild animal instincts. Soon he slips back into his old ways as a sneaky chicken thief, and in doing so endangers not only his beloved family, but the whole animal community. Trapped underground and with not enough food to go around, the animals band together to fight against the evil Farmers - Boggis (Brian Cox), Bunce (Hugo Guinness) and Bean (Michael Gambon) - who are determined to capture Mr Fox at any cost. Fantastic Mr. Fox is director Wes Anderson's first animated film, using classic techniques to retell this much-loved tale by Charlie and the Chocolate Factory author Roald Dahl.
