Short guy Jan Dite, but high in ambition wants to become a millionaire. And he knows just how to do it: by hearing everything, seeing everything, and creating opportunities at every turn. Armed with this knowledge and an irrepressible wish to please, he soon leaves his first place of employment, a pub, for a luxury brothel and finally moves onto an elegant Art Nouveau Prague restaurant.
But by the late 1930s, things are changing: Hitler has taken the Sudetenland region and is breaking apart Czechoslovakia. Jan falls in love with LÃza, a Sudeten German proud of her Aryan blood. They marry, and soon after LÃza is sent to serve on the Polish front, while Jan remains behind to serve as a nurse in a Nazi SS Research Hospital, but when she returns, she has a fortune in rare stamps that Jews had 'left behind.'
After LÃzaâ death, Jan sells the stamps and becomes a millionaire. But he only has three years to enjoy his fortune: the new Communist regime puts him behind bars for 15 years, one for each of his millions. Upon his release from jail, Jan is sent to live in a decrepit border town. Here Jan reflects on the events that have shaped his life--and to reflect on what might have happened if he had played a different role in these events.

A espionage thriller film, based on an idea by Steve Martin.
Plot
When FBI agent Roy Clayton heads up the investigation into a dangerous international conspiracy, all clues seem to lead back to former U.S. Special Operations officer, Samir Horn. A mysterious figure with a web of connections to terrorist organizations, Horn has a knack for emerging on the scene just as a major operation goes down. The inter-agency task force looking into the case meets with Carter, a veteran CIA contractor who seemingly has his own agenda and Max Archer, a fellow FBI agent. The task force links Horn to a prison break in Yemen, a bombing in Nice and a raid in London, but a tangle of contradictory evidence emerges, forcing Clayton to question whether his quarry is a disaffected former military operative -- or something far more complicated. Obsessed with discovering the truth, Clayton tracks Horn across the globe as the elusive ex-soldier burrows deeper and deeper into a world of shadows and intrigue.

What Expert Say?
"a slam-bang patchwork of more inspired comedies, such as Ace Ventura: Pet
Detective and Borat". Byrge described the premise as "a twist on the formula of
let's-put-on-a-show, with the twist being that no one wants the show". He
thought that the screenwriters had put together "a string of gags in a
hit-and-miss dither" - Duane Byrge of The Hollywood Reporter
"outrageously funny but it does require a certain type of sense of humor and the
ability to laugh at very odd behavior and situations". Douglas thought that
Coogan played his character over-the-top, but found that through the film, "you
really start to love him". He described the premise as "ludicrous" but said,
"Sometimes, you just have to turn off your brain and allow yourself to laugh." -
Edward Douglas of ComingSoon.net
"It made sure to take shots at Christians, gays, Latinos, Jews, the American
Civil Liberties Union and Elisabeth Shue, one of its lead actresses." - The New
York Times

The film starts at the beginning of the 2005/2006 season. Barcelona defeats Real Madrid by three goals in the Bernabéu, and Gavin Harris performs poorly in the Spanish league match. Santiago has attracted the interest of Real after his sensational performance in Newcastle last season and on deadline day he signs for them in a swap deal involving Michael Owen. Santi moves in with Roz who he is set to get married to. He makes his debut in a game against Greek side Olympiakos. With the game tied at 0-0 he comes off the bench to score the winning goal with a fantastic volley to the delight of the home crowd. Meanwhile his friend Gavin Harris is misfiring and has failed to score in 14 matches.
Roz soon has to head home to carry on her studies. Santi continues to impress at Real and the manager and director of Football are seen arguing of whether he should start. However life gets bad for Santi when his half brother turns up and shows him a picture of his mom. Santi's mom left his dad years ago and is now living in Spain with a new husband and a son. Enrique had learnt of this and went to tell Santi. Santi is freaked and drives off. From then on his life goes downhill. He makes his first start in a home game against Valencia and he is sent off after 5 minutes when he hacked down Vicente. He drowns his sorrows at a bar with Jordana Garcia (a journalist he met at Gavin's party).
Things get worse for Santi as he misses the team plane for the game against Rosenborg and he then starts falling out with Roz as he becomes more selfish and arrogant. He sacks his agent Glen Foy who had given him a chance in football. Meanwhile his friend Gavin Harris is scoring again but he loses his house and moves in with Santi. Santi gets injured while playing football with Gavin at home and his coach bans him from returning home for Christmas. Roz begins to think that Santiago is cheating on her.
For New Year's Eve, Gavin organizes a party which Jordana Garica is invited to. Jordana and Santi soon start kissing and the next scene shows Santiago telling Gavin that nothing happened when in fact they kissed. Santi tells Gavin about his brother but seems unable to find him. Enrique and Santi encounter each other again, and Santiago gives Enrique a ride home. After Santi drops Enrique off at home, Enrique quickly grabs Santi's duffel bag containing his warm ups and practice jersey. Santiago, unable to chase Enrique because of his injury, gets back into his car.
Enrique then steals Santi's car and Santi jumps in a cab and orders the Cab to pursue the car. Enrique crashes the car and Santi is interviewed by the police at the hospital where Enrique has been treated. A member of the paparazzi takes a picture of Santi and Santi strikes him, just as the police drag him off he finally sees his mom.
He spends the night in the jail before a member of the club rescues him, however things get worse a magazine shows Jordana and Santi kissing at the bar on New Years Eve. Roz yells at Santi over the phone. Meanwhile Santi finally finds his mom and they talk over what happened where his mom reveals she ran away because a man and Santi's uncle attacked her. Santi plays a game of football with his brother Enrique. He then phones Roz and apologizes for his behaviour. Roz is pregnant but Santi doesn't know.
Harris scores the winning goal against Barcelona in the Champions League. Real Madrid get past Lyon in the Champions League Semi-Finals by goals of Harris and Santi in the Santiago Bernabéu. They play Arsenal in the final and are trailing 1-0 at half time. Santi is brought on to play behind Gavin Harris. Arsenal however score again through Thierry Henry. They then miss a penalty and Gavin Harris pulls one back. Santi hits the bar before scoring himself in injury time and David Beckham scores a free kick to win Real the Champions League.

Terminal Island: The very near future.
The world's hunger for extreme sports and reality competitions has grown into reality TV bloodlust. Now, the most extreme racing competition has emerged and its contestants are murderous prisoners. Tricked-out cars, caged thugs and smoking-hot navigators combine to create a juggernaut series with bigger ratings than the Super Bowl.
The rules of the Death Race are simple: Win five events, and you're set free. Lose and you're road kill splashed across the Internet.
International action star Jason Statham leads the action-thriller's cast as three-time speedway champion Jensen Ames, an ex-con framed for a gruesome murder. Forced to don the mask of the mythical driver Frankenstein, a Death Race crowd favorite who seems impossible to kill, Ames is given an easy choice by Terminal Island's ruthless Warden Hennessey (Joan Allen): Suit up and drive or never see his little girl again.
His face hidden by a hideous mask, one convict will enter an insane three-day challenge in order to gain freedom. But to claim the prize, Ames must survive a gauntlet of the most vicious criminals—including nemesis Machine Gun Joe (Tyrese Gibson)—in the country's toughest prison. Trained by his coach (Ian McShane) to drive a monster Mustang V8 Fastback outfitted with 2 mounted mini-guns, flamethrowers and napalm, an innocent man will destroy everything in his path to win the most twisted spectator sport on Earth.

Tom Cruise cameo controversy
Stiller had intended to keep Cruise's role in the film a surprise, and he is not credited in the film. The film studio has refused to release pictures of Cruise's character as he appears in the movie. Images of Tom Cruise with a bald headpiece and in a fat suit appeared on Inside Edition in November 2007, and also appeared on the Internet. Cruise is reported to play a fat movie mogul in the film. Attorneys for Tom Cruise threatened a lawsuit if photos showing Cruise bald, bearded and wearing a fat suit were published. A representative for Cruise stated: "Mr Cruise's appearance was supposed to be a surprise for his fans worldwide. Paparazzi have ruined what should have been a fun discovery for moviegoers." Photo agency INF responded with a statement: "While these pictures were taken without breaking any criminal or civil laws, we've decided to pull them from circulation effective immediately." MTV News reported that "..reps are reportedly having the image of a fat, balding Cruise pulled from the Internet as quickly as sites can put it up". In an April 2008 interview with MTV News, Ben Stiller refused to discuss Tom Cruise's role in the film.

Fly Me to the Moon is a CGI animated feature film.
Click here for trailer
A tween-aged fly named Nat and his two best friends, I.Q. and Scooter, build a “fly-sized” rocket in a field across from Cape Canaveral, Florida, where the Apollo 11 sits on its launch pad. From his earliest memory, Nat remembers his grandfather, Amos, telling him of his daring rescue of Amelia Earhart as she crossed the Atlantic Ocean on her historic flight. Wanting to be an adventurer like his Grandpa, Nat knows what he has to do. Defying the notion that “Dreamers get swatted!” he tells his friends his plan to get aboard the Apollo 11 and go to the moon. His buddies, with some reluctance, are in. The next morning, as their families realize they are missing, the three flies make it to Space Center command. In their homemade space suits, Nat, I.Q. and Scooter stow away inside the space helmets of astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins. As they blast off, our three tiny adventurers are about to make some history of their own.
Back on earth, Grandpa, Mom and the others watch TV to get news of their offspring’s adventure. As the astronauts appear on camera, the heroic flies wave in the background, visible to other flies but barely seen by humans – except for an attentive NASA team member, who informs Armstrong that there appear to be “contaminants” on board. One other problem: In far-away Russia, there are other flies watching TV - Russian flies that cannot tolerate American flies getting to the moon first. A Russian plan is hatched and operatives are enlisted to interfere with the US mission. Mother Russia puts all its hopes of success on the back of one nasty operative named Yegor. Fortunately, a pretty Russian fly named Nadia also sees the flies on board and hears Nat calling out his Grandpa’s name, the very name of the fly Nadia met in Paris and loved so many years ago.
Back on board the space ship, as the burn cycle to enter the moons orbit begins, the capsule starts to shake violently. There’s a short circuit in a control panel that must be fixed manually or the ship won’t be able to complete its mission. Nat and I.Q. fly through a maze of wires, find the problem and repair it just in time. Unaware of the flies’ aid, the ship enters orbit and all is well... or so they think. Just as they congratulate each other, the little flies are sprayed with a numbing aerosol and are captives in a test tube vial – contaminants indeed.
A screenshot of the filmThe flies manage to break the vial. Nat sneaks into Armstrong’s helmet just in the nick of time. The Lunar Module lands on the surface of the moon. From inside the helmet, Nat beams with every awe-inspiring historic step. I.Q. and Scooter join him on the surface inside Aldrin’s helmet. Back on earth, other plots are being set in motion. After more than 50 years apart, Nadia finds Grandpa, though the joy of their reunion is brief. She tells Grandpa and Nat’s Mom about the Russian plot to divert the mission to crash directly into Mount Rushmore. Yegor must be stopped. Nat’s Mom faints while Grandpa takes off with a renewed youthful vow to save his grandson. At Mission Control, the Russian operatives have infiltrated and are preparing to alter the descent codes. Unaware of the potential danger looming, the astronauts and the little flies sit back and prepare to come back home as heroes.
Grandpa, Nat’s Mom and Nadia join forces to stop Yegor and the Russian plan as Apollo 11 hurtles closer and closer toward earth. In a series of death-defying stunts, they crush the Russian threat. Apollo 11 splashes down safely in the Pacific Ocean, the world still totally unaware of the three little flies on board who made it all possible. Returning as heroes, the three little flies share a slogan embraced by all: “Adventure forever! Dreamers get swatted? Never!”

By accident, Dale witnesses a murder by a crooked police officer Carol (Rosie Perez) and the city's most dangerous drug lord Ted Jones (Gary Cole).
In panic, he flees the scene and accidentally drops his roach of Pineapple Express. Dale speedily drives back to Saul to find out if the weed is so rare that it could be traced back to him. The two are forced to run for their lives, they quickly discover they are not suffering from weed-fueled paranoia, rather the bad guys are hot on their tracks trying to kill them.

Plot
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor stars Brendan Fraser reprising his role as explorer Rick O'Connell, along with his son Alex (Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello, taking over the character from Rachel Weisz) and her brother, Jonathan (John Hannah). The two parents are now retired, but they must stop the resurrected tyrannical Han, the Dragon Emperor (Jet Li), a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse, and whose army was found by 18-year old Alex. The Emperor now wishes to rebuild his empire, and threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service with his Terracotta Army. Their chances of stopping him are thin, for the Emperor has not only an army of great magnitude, but controls the five elements. The undead Terracotta Army faces another, smaller, raised-from-the-dead army made of the Dragon Emperor's enemies, who died when they were crushed under the Great Wall of China. The emperor on which this fictitious account was based on was Qin Shi Huang and not the first Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu of Han.
