The End of Oak Street

After a mysterious cosmic event rips Oak Street from suburbia and transports their neighborhood to someplace unknown, the Platt family soon discovers that their very survival depends on them sticking together as they navigate their now unrecognizable surroundings. Starring Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor, critics are calling The End of Oak Street, “the best dinosaur film since the first Jurassic Park.” It’s an exhilarating, crowd-pleasing thriller delivering vintage thrills and surprises.

Coyote vs. Acme

After decades of being demolished by dynamite, mangled by magnets, battered by boulders, trampled by trains, tricked by tunnels, and hurled headlong off every cliff in the Southwest, Wile E. Coyote finally fights back! Teaming up with billboard accident lawyer Kevin Avery, he takes on slick corporate counsel Buddy Crane and ACME, Inc., the profit-obsessed conglomerate behind every one of the Coyote's chaotic catastrophes. Coyote vs. Acme, a live-action/animation hybrid, is an absolute delightful from start to finish. It’s funny, family-friendly, and fiercely faithful to the spirit of these beloved Looney Tunes characters.
  • Rated: PG (violence, coarse language, frightening scenes)

The Rivals of Amziah King

Deep within the backwoods of rural Oklahoma, charismatic and musically gifted Amziah King herds a bluegrass-playing band of misfits while overseeing the premier honey-making operation in town. When Amziah's estranged foster daughter unexpectedly returns, Amziah leaps at the possibility to renew connection. But the honey game is ruthless, and Amziah's rivals threaten to destroy everything he has built. Gripping and powerful, The Rivals of Amziah King is a rollicking, bluegrass-fueled rural crime drama with a heart of gold. Anchored by a terrific performance from Matthew McConaughey and the scene-stealing newcomer Angelina LookingGlass.
