In a future without water vengeance will rain.


Young Ones is an 2014 American action science fiction film
 directed and written by Jake Paltrow.

Watch the Trailer!



YOUNG ONES is set in a near future when water has become the most precious and dwindling resource
 on the planet, one that dictates everything from the macro of political policy to the detailed micro of interpersonal family and romantic relationships. The land has withered into something wretched. The 
dust has settled on a lonely, barren planet. The hardened survivors of the loss of Earth’s precious 
resources scrape and struggle. Ernest Holm (Michael Shannon) lives on this harsh frontier with his 
children, Jerome (Kodi Smit McPhee)and Mary (Elle Fanning). He defends his farm from bandits, 
works the supply routes, and hopes to rejuvenate the soil. But Mary's boyfriend, Flem Lever
 (Nicholas Hoult), has grander designs. He wants Ernest's land for himself, and will go to any
 length to get it. From writer/director Jake Paltrow comes a futuristic western, told in three 
chapters, which inventively layers Greek tragedy over an ethereal narrative that’s steeped 
deeply in the values of the American West.

Man of Steel (2013) Trailer

Man of Steel


Man of Steel is a 2013 superhero film based on the DC Comics character Superman, co-produced by Legendary Pictures and Syncopy Films, distributed by Warner Bros. It is the first installment in the DC shared film universe.

Watch the Promo!


At a time when comic book heroes are increasingly distinguished by their flaws, Superman's status as the ultimate good guy has caused him to fall out of favor. (How do you get audiences to relate to a dude who can push the moon out of orbit and has the morals of an Eagle Scout?) Man of Steel, producer Christopher Nolan's attempt to give the hero a Dark Knight retrofit, succeeds in giving the character a fresh start, courtesy of both a gargantuan sense of scale, and Henry Cavill's winningly unironic central performance. Devotees of Christopher Reeve's legendary mild-mannered portrayal may find themselves missing the sequences of quiet time from the previous films (the steadily escalating plot spares little time for cats stuck in trees), but this still manages to uphold the gee-whiz qualities that made people buy the comics in the first place. For all of the stunning bangs and gigantic sonic booms, its greatest achievement may be in making Superman's fundamental squareness feel like a virtue again. Nolan and director Zack Snyder (Watchmen) have kept the basic elements of the origin story--infant survivor of an alien world comes to Earth, crash lands in Kansas, grows up big and really, really strong--while putting a spin on virtually all of the details. Here, Krypton is depicted as a wonderfully baroque '50s sci-fi menagerie, X-ray vision has some painful flaws, and Lois Lane (Amy Adams) isn't the type of person to be fooled by a pair of glasses. The spirit of reinvention carries over to the cast, with the perfect chemistry of Cavill and Adams aided by admirably serious-minded supporting performances from the likes of Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, and the tremendously intense Michael Shannon, as a super-powered conqueror with his own special motivation for assuming control. (Like most great villains, he doesn't see himself as the bad guy.) Superhero movies have always had a problem knowing when to say when, and Man of Steel doesn't exactly break from tradition in that regard, with a climactic fight scene that eventually turns into a well-staged but numbing series of explosions. (Godzilla would be taken aback by the levels of property damage.) Bumps aside, however, this still stands as a tremendous first step in a new direction, with a final line that suggests even better things may be in store. The canvas finally feels large enough to support the myth. --Andrew Wright
