Pete's Dragon (2016)
The adventures of an orphaned boy named Pete and his best friend Elliot, who just so happens to be a dragon.
Director:David Lowery |
| Watch Trailer Get Tickets |
The Buzz: A dragon could succeed where a BFG recently failed and find a huge audience, the first non-animated family movie since The Jungle Book to truly connect with families. The adaptation of the beloved children's book serves as an introduction to Oakes Fegley, who plays the orphan Pete, and well as a career stepping stone for director/co-writer, David Lowery, who generated industry buzz with his crime/drama Aint Them Bodies Saints.

Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)
The story of Florence Foster Jenkins, a New York heiress who dreamed of becoming an opera singer, despite having a terrible singing voice.
Director:Stephen Frears |
| Watch Trailer Get Tickets |
The Buzz: Leave it to Meryl Streep to tackle unforgettable, challenging characters. This time, the acting legend takes on one of popular culture's true cult figures from the early 20th century: a singer so incredibly bad that she became a viral sensation before the advent of social media. Fear not, all you terrible singers of the world: Streep might play you someday and probably still sound better than you. - Bret

The Buzz: Every major studio has an actor and/or director who seems to be able to make whatever project they choose; Seth Rogen certainly has sway at Sony, where he and his screenwriting pals enlisted animation vets Greg Tiernan ("Thomas & Friends") and Conrad Vernon (Shrek 2) to helm the R-rated comedy we didn't realize we needed so badly in our lives.

Hell or High Water (2016)
A divorced dad and his ex-con brother resort to a desperate scheme in order to save their family's farm in West Texas.
Director:David Mackenzie |
| Watch Trailer Get Tickets |
The Buzz: Really intrigued by this contemporary take on a classic Western theme that finds both director David Mackenzie (Starred Up, Young Adam) and lead Chris Pine stretching their respective ranges. There's discernible online buzz for the movie as well. - Arno

Anthropoid (2016)
Based on the extraordinary true story of Operation Anthropoid, the WWII mission to assassinate SS General Reinhard Heydrich, the main architect behind the Final Solution and the Reich's third in command after Hitler and Himmler.
Director:Sean Ellis |
| Watch Trailer Get Tickets |
The Buzz: We debuted this trailer because of our love for Cillian Murphy and interest in this particular time in history; furthermore, think there's much more to Jamie Dornan than Christian Grey. It's the newest movie from director Sean Ellis, who has scored indie hits with Metro Manila and Cashback.

Operation Chromite (2016)- Action | Drama | History | War
A squad of soldiers fight in the Korean War's crucial Battle of Incheon.
Director:John H. Lee |
| Watch Trailer Get Tickets |
The Buzz: The idea of Liam Neeson playing General Douglas MacArthur could be the sort of project that HBO would turn into an epic mini-series, but this foreign historical recreation was first made for the Korean market, where it topped the box office despite extremely negative reviews.

Edge of Winter (2016)
When two brothers are stranded by a brutal winter storm with an unpredictable father they barely know, the boys begin to suspect their supposed protector may be their biggest threat.
Director:Rob Connolly |
| Watch Trailer |
The Buzz: When I first started watching "The Killing," I was convinced that Joel Kinnaman was the killer because he seemed to have a dark secret. Obviously that wasn't the case (spoiler alert!), but this added dimension to his character earned him a place on my favorite actors list. In my opinion, Kinnaman is at his best when playing characters with a hint of darkness. I'm looking forward to seeing him finally go over the edge. - Michelle

Ghost Team (2016)
A paranormal-obsessed man mounts his own investigation into the beyond with his depressed best friend, misfit nephew, a cable access medium and an overeager security guard.
Director:Oliver Irving |
| Watch Trailer |
The Buzz: We wonder what the expected theatrical return is for a parody of the paranormal activity sub-genre, even with a cast as appealing as these indie vets and cable channel stars. Director Oliver Irving is at the helm in his first project since Robert Pattinson non-starter How to Be.
