purpose. A supervillain without a superhero. He realizes that
achieving his life's ambition is the worst thing that ever happened
to him. Megamind decides that the only way out of his rut is to
create a new hero opponent called "Titan", who promises to be
bigger, better and stronger than Metro Man ever was. Can the world's
smartest man make the smart decision for once? Can the evil genius
become the unlikely hero of his own story?

through town and anticipation starts to run high. Before long the

Minutes: 111
Format: WIDESCREEN
Rated: PG
Genre:
DOCUMENTARY
Documentary filmmaker Davis Guggenheim explores the tragic ways in
which the American public education system is failing our nation's
children, and explores the roles that charter schools and education
reformers could play in offering hope for the future. We see the
statistics every day -- students dropping out, science and math
scores falling, and schools closing due to lack of funding. What we
don't see are the names and faces of the children whose entire
futures are at stake due to our own inability to enact change. There
was a time when the American public education system was a model
admired by the entire world. Today other countries are surpassing us
in every respect, and the slogan "No Child Left Behind" has become a
cynical punch line. Bianca, Emily, Anthony, Daisy, and Francisco are
five students who deserve better. By investigating how the current
system is actually obstructing their education instead of bolstering
it, Guggenheim opens the door to considering possible options for
transformation and improvement.

Ishiguro's introspective sci-fi novel about a group of unsuspecting

themselves. Sheltered teens Kathy (Carey Mulligan), Ruth (Keira
Knightley), and Tommy (Andrew Garfield) all grew up at a remote
English boarding school, and now they're hungry to explore the real
world. Their dreams of freedom are soon stifled, however, upon

for organ harvesting. Now, in addition to confronting their own
mortality, all three must come to terms with a lifetime of emotions
and unfulfilled longings while pondering their true purpose for
being.

THE
TILLMAN STORY (2010)

PAT
TILLMAN
RICHARD TILLMAN
Minutes: 95
Format: WIDESCREEN
Rated: R
Genre:
DOCUMENTARY
In 2002, as America was poised to go to war in the wake of the 9/11
terrorist attacks, Pat Tillman, a defensive back with the Arizona
Cardinals, joined the United States Army, believing he had a duty to
serve in a time of need even though he had signed a lucrative deal
to play professional football. Tillman served a tour of duty in Iraq
and was on patrol in Afghanistan when, on April 22, 2004, he was
killed during a reconnaissance mission near the border of Pakistan.
When word spread about Tillman's death, the Army issued a press
release declaring he'd been shot down while trying to heroically
block the fire of a band of Taliban insurgents. While the Army's
story painted a glowing picture of the fallen soldier and athlete,
some of the details sounded suspect to Tillman's family, and in time
they began asking questions. As it happens, Tillman's parents were
outspoken in their opposition to the war in Iraq, and after he had
seen what was happening firsthand, so was Tillman, who had been a
sharp student with an interest in politics during his college years.
In time, Tillman's parents demanded an investigation into their
son's death, and the testimony of several witnesses revealed that
Tillman wasn't felled during an act of heroism -- his death was the
result of "friendly fire" by men from his own company, shooting
indiscriminately at an unknown target. Filmmaker Amir Bar-Lev
examines Pat Tillman's unusual life and times, the facts about his
death, how and why the military created a cover story to hide the
truth, and his family's battle to bring the real story into the open
in the documentary THE TILLMAN STORY, which received its world
premiere at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival.
