This week's releases


Don Jon: Joseph Gordon-Levitt writes, directs and stars in this comedy drama about Jon who is a New Jersey guy who is a great friend and family member but suffers from an addiction to pornography. As he meets Barbara (Scarlett Johansson) he is forced to confront his addiction and make choices about the life he wants for himself.




The Butler: Classic Oscar material, Hollywood is now rolling out films set during the civil rights movement to push for Oscar nominations and to be fair you can't blame them with the Oscar buffs being even more obsessed themselves. Forest Whittaker plays Cecil Gaines who plays the butler to eight different presidents during his working life as the civil rights movement and the Vietnam War take hold of America.




The Counselor: The latest film from director Ridley Scott is a crime thriller with an ensemble cast. After much anticipation the initial reviews were poor from America with many blaming a laughably poor script, we have to wait till this Friday to find out for ourselves. The film is set by the troubled border between Texas and Mexico at Juarez with a lawyer finding himself in deep trouble with drug trafficking.
