What's On - Herts and Essex

Movies showing in Herts and Essex

Any screening of Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance 3D will plunge you headfirst into the fiery pits of despair.

 

Safe House

Safe House is a high-octane, adrenaline-fuelled action thriller that borrows liberally from The Bourne Identity and its sequels

A Dangerous Method

Let's talk about sex. Screenwriter Christopher Hampton does so with arch detachment in A Dangerous Method, an artfully composed portrait of intellectual one-upmanship adapted from his 2002 stage play, The Talking Cure.

 

The Vow

For some brides, a fairy-tale waltz up the aisle turns out to be a day they would rather forget.

 

The Muppets

For more than 35 years, Kermit The Frog, Miss Piggy and their fun-loving friends have been firmly engrained in our rose-tinted childhood memories with their slapstick routines and song and dance numbers.

 

Carnage

Director Roman Polanski strips away the veneer of civility that supposedly separates man from beasts and reduces two well-to-do couples to snarling adversaries in this film version of the award-winning stage comedy God Of Carnage.

 

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Adapted from Deborah Moggach's novel These Foolish Things, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is a hilarious and touching comedy about growing old disgracefully.

 

Extremely Loud And Extremely Close.

Published in 2005, Jonathan Safran Foer's second novel Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close revisited the deadliest act of terrorism committed on American soil through the eyes of a nine-year-old boy.

 

The Woman in Black

Less is certainly more in The Woman In Black, a chilling film version of the celebrated novel by Susan Hill, which has been re-imagined as a television movie, a radio series and a hit stage play in the 30 years since its publication.

 

Jack and Jill

In the popular 18th century nursery rhyme, Jack and Jill went up a hill and took a tumble as they fetched a pail of water.

 

Like Crazy

Love in its many wondrous forms is an essential component of the human experience.
