soon tests their devotion, however, as a prestigious career opportunity lures
Violet from California to Michigan; to follow her, Tom must give up his job. As

DIRECTED BY Dean DeBlois
and Chris Sanders
In a dystopian version of North America, children are chosen by lottery to
compete in a battle to the death known as the Hunger Games. Sixteen-year-old
Katniss Everdeen enters the games after she volunteers in her sister’s place, and
is forced to rely upon little more than her instincts when pitted against kids who
have prepared for the competition their entire lives. In the arena, Katniss has to
make impossible choices that pit survival against humanity.
In this 2002 animated favorite, Nani is doing her best to raise her younger
sister, Lilo, after the death of their parents, but Lilo is withdrawn and lonely—so
Nani decides to let her adopt a dog. At the shelter, Lilo takes a liking to Stitch,
who turns out to be not a mutt but a rambunctious blue extraterrestrial who’s
hiding on Earth. With a social worker evaluating Nani’s care for Lilo and two aliens
prowling around in an attempt to recapture Stitch, things quickly get out of hand.

A Marine sergeant returns from his third tour of duty in Iraq with the
one thing he credits with keeping him alive: a photo he found of a
woman he doesn’t even know. Against all odds, he manages to track
her down and, despite her initial mistrust and some complications in
her life, a romance develops between them, giving him hope that he’s
found much more than his good luck charm.
In this stylishly updated fairy tale directed by Tarsem Singh (Immortals), the
evil queen (Julia Roberts) banishes Snow White (Lily Collins) in a fit of jealousy
after the younger woman catches the eye of a certain handsome prince. Banished
to a forest where a man-eating beast hungrily awaits, Snow White is quickly

her kids and flees to the Woodstock, N.Y., home of her mother, Grace (Jane
Fonda). Mother and daughter couldn’t be less alike, as Grace is the epitome

Based on a Stephen King story, the 1986 classic Stand by Me is a coming-of-age
tale about four youngsters—Gordie, Chris, Teddy and Vern—who set out to
find the body of a local boy who has disappeared. They traverse a junkyard,
narrowly escape being hit by a train, survive a leech-infested swamp and have
a showdown with a pack of local bullies as they journey to make something of
themselves in their working-class hometown.
Based on—and featuring—comedian Steve Harvey’s hit book, Act Like a Lady,
Think Like a Man, this comic romp follows four men whose love lives are shaken
up after the ladies they are pursuing buy Harvey’s book and start taking his
relationship advice to heart. When the men realize they have been betrayed by
one of their own, they conspire to use the book’s insider tips to turn the tables
and teach the women a lesson.

Left on the doorstep of an orphanage run by nuns, a trio of infants named
Larry, Moe and Curly grow up into finger-poking, nyuk-nyuking and woo-woowooing adults with a penchant for knuckleheaded misadventure. When they
set out to save their childhood home from financial ruin, the three brothers
become embroiled in an oddball murder plot and stumble into starring in their
own reality TV show.
Dangerously weakened by humanity’s lack of devotion, the gods are losing
control of the imprisoned Titans and their ferocious leader, Kronos. The balance
suddenly tips to the dark side when Zeus, the king of the gods, is taken captive
and his powers are siphoned away. It’s up to Zeus’ half-mortal son, Perseus,
to undertake a treacherous quest into the underworld to rescue his father,
overthrow the Titans and save mankind.

Vampire warrior Selene faces a perilous world in which humans
have discovered the existence of both the vampire race and its sworn
enemies, the lycans. With both groups targeted for extinction, Selene
has to fight for her life while getting to the bottom of what looks to
be a far-ranging conspiracy.
The gods are losing control of the imprisoned Titans and their ferocious leader, Kronos. The balance tips to the dark side when Zeus,
the king of the gods, is taken captive. It’s up to Zeus’ half-mortal son,
Perseus, to undertake a treacherous quest into the underworld to
rescue his father, overthrow the Titans and save mankind.

Debuting this month is a lineup of HBO programs that mixes
drama with comedy, and new shows with a classic one. First
up is an episode of the Aaron Sorkin series “The Newsroom”
(above), starring Jeff Daniels as a cable news anchor and Emily
Mortimer as his new executive producer. Then comes the sitcom
“Veep,” which follows the whirlwind day-to-day existence of
Vice President Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) as she puts out
political fires and tries to repair her dysfunctional relationship
with the chief executive. Wrapping things up is a classic episode
of Larry David’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” in which Larry and Jeff
decide to invest in an invention called a “car periscope.”

There’s plenty of misbehaving to go around in this set of two
episodes each of Showtime’s “House of Lies” (pictured) and
“Californication.” Inspired by the hit tell-all book House of Lies:
How Management Consultants Steal Your Watch and Tell You the
Time, “House of Lies” features Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell as
cutthroat business gurus who always put their clients before their
ethics (and their fees before their clients). In “Californication,”
David Duchovny plays fast-living writer Hank Moody, who’s
working on the script of a big-budget movie and dealing with
competition a little too close to home: His daughter’s boyfriend
is a talented writer himself.
