Synopsis: In Men in Black 3, Agents J (Will Smith) and K (Tommy Lee Jones) are back...in time.

But when K's life and the fate of the planet are put at stake, Agent J will have to travel back in time to put things right. J discovers that there are secrets to the universe that K never told him -- secrets that will reveal themselves as he teams up with the young Agent K (Josh Brolin) to save his partner, the agency, and the future of humankind. -- (Written by Sony Pictures)

Gangster Squad

 My Rating:
IMDb Users:
Gangster Squad (2013) on IMDb

(2013)
Genre: Action/Drama
Director: Ruben Fleischer
Writers: Will Beall, Paul Lieberman
Producers: Bruce Berman, Ruben Fleischer, Dan Lin, Kevin McCormick, Jon Silk, Michael Tadross

Synopsis: Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and-if he has his way-every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons, but also the police and the politicians who are under his control. It's enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop...except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O'Mara (Josh Brolin) and Jerry Wooters (Ryan Gosling), who come together to try to tear Cohen's world apart. -- (Written by Warner Bros.)

Melinda and Melinda

 My Rating:
 IMDb Users:
(2004)
Genre: Comedy/Drama
Director: Woody Allen
Writer: Woody Allen
Producers: Letty Aronson, Charles H. Joffe, Helen Robin, Jack Rollins, Stephen Tenenbaum

Synopsis: While Woody Allen has long fused comedy and drama in his films, he embraces the two styles in a new and unusual way in this feature. Sy (Wallace Shawn) is enjoying dinner with some friends when they begin debating the nature of the tragic and the humorous. Sy, observing that a very fine line separates the two, decides to demonstrate this notion by showing how the same essential story can be either funny or sad depending on the way certain elements are handled; for the rest of the film, we jump back and forth between two versions of the story of Melinda (Radha Mitchell), a young woman with some serious problems in her life. (Written by Mark Deming)

Cast:
  • Radha Mitchell
  • Will Ferrell
  • Amanda Peet
  • Chloë Sevigny
  • Chiwetel Ejiofor
  • Jonny Lee Miller

 IMDb Users:
(2010)
Genre: Western/Adventure/Drama

Writer: Joel Coen, Ethan Coen, Charles Portis
 Nominee
Synopsis: Following the murder of her father by hired hand Tom Chaney, 14-year-old farm girl Mattie Ross sets out to capture the killer. To aid her, she hires the toughest U.S. marshal she can find, a man with "true grit," Reuben J. "Rooster" Cogburn. Mattie insists on accompanying Cogburn, whose drinking, sloth, and generally reprobate character do not augment her faith in him. Against his wishes, she joins him in his trek into the Indian Nations in search of Chaney. They are joined by Texas Ranger LaBoeuf, who wants Chaney for his own purposes. The unlikely trio find danger and surprises on the journey, and each has his or her "grit" tested. (Written by Jim Beaver)
