War

There are many types of family. Each type are subject to the strains of daily life. They may come from within as people struggle to assert their independence or dominance. They may come from outside as intruders seek to dissemble the links that hold it together or seek to shear off someone to persuade them to join another family. Each are mutable as new members join because they want its safety or security and others leave to start their own or are torn apart because of death. And sometimes all of these forces combine along with others to scare all members into realizing how fragile a family can be. FBI Special Agent Jack Crawford (Jason Statham) know all about it. He has lost all of his families but his blue one following the murder of his partner Tom Lone (Terry Chen), his wife and child. And now the one whom everyone believes began this disaster is back. He is a former CIA assassin now working for the Japanese Yakuza named Rogue (Jet Li) who seems also to be in cahoots with the triad families and appears to be playing one off against the other. Crawford hopes they kill themselves but he wants to save Rogue for himself but he has a few surprises for him.

War of the Worlds

His preteen daughter (Dakota Fanning) is allergic to peanut butter. His teenage son (Justin Chatwin) has nothing to say to him. Ray Ferrier (Tom Cruise), a divorced father, is oblivious to the lives of his children. He doesn’t know who they are, what they like, how they cope with life. Yet, he has to care for them after the world is invaded. Mind you, they don’t know that yet. They don’t know much except that the electricity is gone (an EMT pulse), a giant machine has erupted from beneath the town’s roads and starts vapourizing people and buildings. His children expect him to lead them to safety and provide guidance and he is scared silly, flying by the seat of his pants, without a clue as to what to do next. How would you handle this?

The Walker

What would you do for a friend? Just about anything? Even thought it might cost you all that you value? Your friends? Your social status? Your lifestyle? Perhaps even your freedom? Carter Page III (Woody Harrelson) is willing to give it all up to protect his friend Lynn Lockner (Kristin Scott Thomas), a US senator’s wife. He claims to have found the body of a mutual friend (even though she did) murdered at home and, as his lie spirals out of control, he refuses to recant and implicate his friend. Meanwhile all about him, politics and the police try to protect themselves and accuse others in the culture of revenge, as Carter brands it, swirling around Washington.
