A new crop of movies for the new year! How about a couple of powerful, moving films and one wild action thriller?
Won't Back Down, filmed in and around Pittsburgh, shows a single mother's fight to give her daughter and others around them, a proper education. Based on true events, this one looks like an inspiring story that anyone can relate to.
The Other Dream Team is a documentary that looks back on the now 20 year old Lithuanian Olympic Basketball Team from 1992. What was more than just basketball and tie-dyed jerseys, was a nation pulling together for freedom.
Finally,
Looper is a "not so distant" futuristic action thriller that asks the question, if you were supposed to kill your future time-travelling self, what would you do? With Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon Levitt playing the same guy, it is bound to be a wild one.
