Kung Fu Panda
Po the Panda, a lowly waiter in a noodle restaurant, is fanatic about kung fu but his shape doesn't really allow him to do that. In reality, Po's defining characteristic appears to be that he is the laziest of all the animals in ancient China. This is a problem because powerful enemies are at the gates and all hopes have been pinned on a prophesy naming Po as the 'Chosen One' to save the day. A group of martial arts masters are going to need black belts in patience if they are going to turn this slacker panda into a kung fu fighter before it's too late!
The Dark Knight
After defeating the Order of Shadows and thwarting the mob boss, Carmine Falcone, in 'Batman Begins', Bruce Wayne continues to fight crime in Gotham City. With Falcone gone, a new mafioso, Salvatore Maroni, has taken over the organised crime syndicates and it seems Batman's quest to wrestle Gotham free from the criminals will be never-ending. Luckily, the city's new District Attorney Harvey Dent's strong-arm stance against crime gives Wayne hope. Maybe his new ally will take over his battles, allowing him to settle down with the love of his life Rachel Dawes - the only person who knows his true identity. The arrival of a new criminal destroys Batman's plans of a quiet life. A twisted, sadistic sociopath, with a morbid fascination for the caped crusader, known only as the Joker, descends upon the city. With no conscience or pain threshold, this nightmarish nemesis wreaks havoc upon Gotham, while Dent, (the White Knight to Batman's Dark Knight) undergoes a horrific transformation into the schizophrenic Two Face.
Hancock
There are heroes... there are superheroes... and then there's Hancock. With great power comes great responsibility - everyone knows that - everyone, that is, but Hancock. Edgy, conflicted, sarcastic, and misunderstood, Hancock's well-intentioned heroics might get the job done and save countless lives, but always seem to leave jaw-dropping damage in their wake. The public has finally had enough - as grateful as they are to have their local hero, the good citizens of Los Angeles are wondering what they ever did to deserve this guy. Hancock isn't the kind of man who cares what other people think - until the day that he saves the life of PR executive Ray Embrey, and the sardonic superhero begins to realize that he may have a vulnerable side after all. Facing that will be Hancock's greatest challenge yet - and a task that may prove impossible as Ray's wife, Mary, insists that he's a lost cause.

Death in Venice
Luchino Visconti's striking adaptation of Thomas Mann's DEATH IN VENICE follows the sickly composer, Gustav von Aschenbach (Dirk Bogarde). As the film begins, Aschenbach is arriving by steam boat in Venice from Munich. He is deeply distracted, nervous, uncomfortable, and conflicted. Nonetheless, he settles into a breathtaking seaside resort, where he fixates on Tadzio (Bjorn Andresen), an angelic blond Polish boy who is there with his family. While flashbacks to happy times spent with his wife and small daughter fill in some of the blanks of Aschenbach's personal past, others recall Aschenbach's harsh and competitive friend, Alfred (Mark Burns), who criticised Aschenbach's music for being overly perfected and thus lacking in beauty and passion. Through these flashbacks, it becomes evident that Aschenbach feels defeated in both his personal and his professional lives. The film uses very little dialogue, relying largely on the characters's facial expressions to communicate the tortured mentality of the protagonist, the curious vanity of young Tadzio, and the precocious airs of the bourgeois women who parade the Venetian beaches in taffeta, bonnets, and parasols. As Aschenbach's infatuation with Tadzio grows beyond his control, he learns that, "Venice is gripped by pestilence," and the city is being sequestered to prevent the spread of a cholera outbreak. With concentrated, languid pacing, a colour scheme consisting of bold blacks and stark whites that are a constant reminder of the inevitable, and some hauntingly surreal scenes, DEATH IN VENICE captures the poignancy of Mann's novel with a sharp, sinister, and unwavering accuracy.
