Passengers HD720p 98MB HD1080p 162MB
Sci-fi action adventure about two passengers (Jennifer Lawrence, Chris Pratt) onboard a spaceship transporting them to a new life on another planet. The trip takes a deadly turn when their hibernation pods mysteriously wake them 90 years before they reach their destination. As the two try to unravel the mystery behind the malfunction, they begin to fall for each other, unable to deny their intense attraction ... only to be threatened by the imminent collapse of the ship and the discovery of the truth behind why they woke up. Michael Sheen, Laurence Fishburne and Andy Garcia are also part of the cast. Directed by Morten Tyldum (The Imitation Game, Headhunters).
Looks interesting, though I suspect the trailer reveals far too much.
Christine HD720p 19MB
Drama that tells the story of a woman who finds herself caught in the crosshairs of a spiraling personal life and career crisis. Christine (Rebecca Hall), always the smartest person in the room at her local Sarasota, Florida news station, feels like she is destined for bigger things and is relentless in her pursuit of an on-air position in a larger market. As an aspiring newswoman with an eye for nuance and an interest in social justice, she finds herself constantly butting heads with her boss (Tracy Letts), who pushes for juicier stories that will drive up ratings. Plagued by self-doubt and a tumultuous home life, Christine's diminishing hope begins to rise when an on-air co-worker (Michael C. Hall) initiates a friendship which ultimately becomes yet another unrequited love.
The previously mentioned dramatised version of the life of Florida newscaster Christine Chubbuck.
The Alchemist Cookbook HD720p 12MB
As the trailer helpfully informs us, a hard to categorise movie, but let's call it a horror comedy. It's about a young outcast (Ty Hickson) who has isolated himself in a trailer in the woods, setting out on alchemic pursuits, with his cat Kaspar as his sole companion. Filled with disdain for authority, he's fled the daily grind and holed up in the wilderness, escaping a society that has no place for him. But when he turns from chemistry to black magic to crack nature's secret, things go awry and he awakens something far more sinister and dangerous.
Apparently, there isn't much of a story, but the trailer makes it look very funny. Should be worth a shot for friends of somewhat absurdist movies.
After Love - L'économie du couple HD720p 13MB
Relationship drama from France in which, after 15 years together, Marie (Bérénice Bejo) and Boris (Cédric Kahn) are calling it quits, but until they can resolve the details of their separation agreement - most notably the division of their prize asset, the magazine-photo-worthy apartment they share with their young twin daughters - they're still living together. Marie is the breadwinner in the relationship, but it was her family's wealth, not her salary, that allowed the couple to purchase their stylish apartment. This is a fact that Boris, a contractor currently between jobs, never lets her forget, since it was his renovation work that added significant value to the property. As the two argue over everything the movie reveals the complexities of their relationship and the depth of the cracks in it.
Bastards HD720p 120MB
R-rated comedy about two brothers (Owen Wilson, Ed Helms) whose eccentric mother (Glenn Close) raised them to believe their father had died when they were young. When they discover this to be a lie, they set out to find their real father, learning more about their mother than they probably ever wanted to know. J.K. Simmons, Terry Bradshaw, Katt Williams and Ving Rhames are also part of the cast. Directorial debut of the cinematographer of the Hangover movies.
Looks embarrassing.
