Standard Screen; Soundtrack English; English Subtitles Inspired by the remarkable true story of the British undercover agent who successfully infiltrated the IRA, writer-director Kari Skogland's fact-based thriller takes its title from author Martin McGartland's bestselling novel of the same name. Set at the absolute height of the Irish civil conflict, FIFTY DEAD MEN WALKING begins as 22-year-old Martin McGarland is recruited by the British police to infiltrate the IRA and report back with intelligence. It's an extremely dangerous job that could result in death or worse should his true identity be revealed, yet McGartland realizes that the information he's gathering will save countless lives. At first the prospect of being discovered provided something of a rush for McGartland, though that initial buzz quickly wears off when his true identity is revealed and he's forced to attempt an impossible escape. Two decades later, McGartland is still on the run. Ben Kingsley, Jim Sturgess, and Rose McGowan star. 50 Dead Men Walking Reviews: 3.5 stars out of 4 -- "The performance of Jim Sturgess as McGartland helps place his decision into the day-by-day process of acting on it."-- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times "The decibels, energy and overall quality are high in writer-director Kari Skogland's FIFTY DEAD MEN WALKING, her supremely well-made, highly stylized, graphic tale..."-- Doris Toumarkine, Hollywood Reporter 3 stars out of 5 -- "The suspenseful spy thriller FIFTY DEAD MEN WALKING will surprise espionage fans....Canadian filmmaker Kari Skogland uses a brutal shooting to launch her film into action."-- Steve Ramos, Box Office "The scenes between Sturgess and Kingsley are riveting, as Kingsley alternately cozens and commands, playing his reluctant informer like a fish on a line." -- Grade: B-- Tasha Robinson, A.V. Club "Sturgess has been The Next Big Thing for about three years now, and he legitimately earns that distinction here: All crazy eyes and sneering charm..."-- Movieline, Movieline "Writer-director Kari Skogland's sharp-edged, doc-style drama is loosely based on the true story of Martin McGartland..." -- Grade: B-- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly "Terrific performances and an array of kinetic action scenes help distinguish FIFT DEAD MEN WALKING..."-- Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times 50 Dead Men Walking | List Price | $29.99 (You save $8.75) | | Orig Year | 2009 | | CD Universe Part number | 7992164 | | Catalog number | 50980 | | Discs | 1 | | Release Date | New 50 Dead Men Walking DVD release date Jan 05, 2010 | | Rating | R (MPAA) | | Additional Info | Widescreen; Subtitled | | Movie Details | Widescreen; Subtitled |

Though HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN director Alfonso Cuaron still holds the crown for best film in the series, David Yates is making an attempt at a coup with HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE. Dark, gleefully funny, and beautifully shot, this adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s novel should please fans despite numerous changes to the 650-page source material. In this sixth film in the series, Harry’s (Daniel Radcliffe) inevitable confrontation with the dark wizard Voldemort grows closer, and Hogwarts headmaster Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) wants the young student to be prepared. He guides Harry through a memory of a young Voldemort, but an important moment is missing. Harry must extract this memory from the new Hogwarts teacher, Horace Slughorn (a perfectly ...

Daniel Craig returns as 007 in this electrifying follow-up to the critically acclaimed CASINO ROYALE. The film opens with two gripping, back-to-back chases, as James Bond (Daniel Craig) tries to heed the orders of M (Judi Dench) and, at the same time, track down the people who blackmailed his love, Vesper. Bond is still struggling with Vesper's death, displaying a new, ferocious violence in his work, and a recklessness that M would very much like to get under control. When Bond discovers a massive, secret organization called Quantum, he believes it might have been a part of the scheme that killed Vesper. He follows the clues to Haiti, where he meets Camille (Olga Kurylenko), a mysterious, driven woman, whose motives seem unclear. Camille leads Bond to Dominic Greene (Mathieu Almalric), a cold-blooded businessman who appears to be working within Quantum. Greene wants control of a valuable piece of land in Latin America, and is part of a massive plan to overthrow the government. ...

Johnny Depp and Christian Bale emerge from two of the biggest blockbuster series of all time (Pirates of the Caribbean and Batman, respectively) to star in this crime drama from HEAT director Michael Mann. Depp stars as charismatic 1930s gangster John Dillinger, whose notorious bank robberies have turned him into a celebrity during the Depression era. The rise in crime has J. Edgar Hoover (Billy Crudup) desperate to have his newly created FBI take down gangsters such as Dillinger, "Pretty Boy" Floyd (Channing Tatum), and "Baby Face" Nelson (Stephen Graham). Enter Agent Melvin Purvis (Bale), an ambitious crimefighter sent to Chicago to capture Dillinger and his gang. The criminal has evaded the law before, but he is drawn to the Second City by the beautiful Billie Frechette (Marion Cotillard).
Though PUBLIC ENEMIES boasts big names, it feels more like an arthouse offering than a typical gangster picture. With its intimately shot violence and 1930s setting, the film ...

Two young women find that their differences bring them closer during a difficult time in this drama from writer-director Karin Albou.

It's 1942, and Tunis is under occupation by Axis forces, which has made life difficult for both women: the German authorities have prevented Khaled (Najib Oudghiri), Nour's fiancee, ...
