HANCOCK

Cast: Charlize Theron, Will Smith, Jason Bateman, Eddie Marsan, Jae Head

Synopsis: There are heroes... there are superheroes... and then there's Hancok (Will Smith). With great power comes great responsibility -- everyone knows that -- everyone, that is, but Hancock. Edgy conflicted, sarcastic, and misunderstood, Hancok'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 thing -- until the day that he saves the life of PR executive Ray Embrey (Jason Bateman), and the sardonic superhero begins to realize that he may have 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 (Charlize Theron), insists that he's a lost cause.

KITT KITTREDGE: AN AMERICAN GIRL MYSTERY

Cast: Abigail Breslin, Chris O'Donnell, Joan Cusack, Julia Ormond, Stanley Tucci

Synopsis: Bright, inquisitive and generous, Kitt is a natural born leader. But her happy childhood is abruptly interrupted when her father (Chris O'Donnell) loses his car dealership and must leave Cincinnati to look for work. Kitt and her mother Margaret (Julia Ormond) are left to manage on their own, growing vegetables, selling eggs and even taking in an assortment of boarders including an itinerant magician (Stanley Tucci), a vivacious dance instructor on the prowl for a husband (Jane Krakowski) and a zany mobile librarian (Joan Cusack).
When a crime spree sweeps Cincinnati, all signs point to the local “hobo jungle,” where Will and Countee live with a group of their impoverished companions. Kitt, who always has her antennae out for a good news story, convinces her new friends to take her to see the hobo camp for herself and writes an article that creates a sympathetic portrait of the camp's residents.
But when Kitt's mother and their boarders become the latest victims in a string of robberies, Kitt's loyalties are tested. Will is accused of the crimes and, with all of their savings gone, the Kittredges face losing their house to foreclosure. Determined to recover the stolen money and believing Will is innocent, Kitt recruits her friends Ruthie (Madison Davenport) and Stirling (Zach Mills) to help her track down the real culprit.
Together they uncover a plot that goes far beyond Cincinnati!
