Brick Mansions
Friday, 24 October
Brick Mansions is the late Paul Walker’s last completed film before his death last year, and the action flick is packed full of high-stakes, fight scenes, explosions and fast cars, just as Walker would’ve wanted it.
The film takes place in future Detroit, where abandoned brick apartment buildings from better times now house only the most dangerous criminals. Unable to control the crime, the police constructed a colossal containment wall around this area to protect the rest of the city.For undercover cop Damien Collier (Paul Walker), every day is a battle against corruption. For Lino (David Belle), every day is a fight to live an honest life. Their paths never should have crossed, but when drug kingpin Tremaine (RZA) kidnaps Lino’s girlfriend, Damien reluctantly accepts the help of the fearless ex-convict, and together they must stop a sinister plot to devastate the entire city.
Annabelle

The Conjuring is arguably one of the most frightening films ever made, and the spin-off prequel hits cinemas this week, but are you ready for another heart-stopping experience?
Annabelle centres on young couple John and Mia (Ward Horton and Annabelle Wallis) who are expecting their first child. The pair suffers a series of terrifying demonic hauntings after John gives Mia a painted, pig-tailed doll named Annabelle. Cue creepy dolls, loud frights and weird happenings.
A Most Wanted Man

Another movie releasing this week stars a late actor who passed long before his time, as Philip Seymour Hoffman stars alongside Rachel McAdams, Willem Dafoe, Robin Wright,Grigoriy Dobrygin, Daniel Brühl and Nina Hoss in the political thriller, A Most Wanted Man.
When a half-Chechen, half-Russian, brutally tortured immigrant turns up in Hamburg’s Islamic community, laying claim to his father’s ill gotten fortune, both German and US security agencies take a close interest: as the clock ticks down and the stakes rise, the race is on to establish this most wanted man’s true identity – oppressed victim or destruction-bent extremist?
