Out this week is 'Peep World,' starring Michael C. Hall, Rainn Wilson, Sarah Silverman, Taraji P. Henson, Judy Greer, Ron Rifkin, Kate Mara, Ben Schwartz, Leslie Ann Warren and Alicia Witt.
What happens to a rich, neurotic family when one of their own writes a tell-all exposing their dirty secrets? The Meyerwitz family is about to find out. And the timing couldn't be more hilariously awful.
As the Meyerwitz clan prepares for the 70th birthday of nasty family patriarch Henry (played by Ron Rifkin), 'Peep World,' the expose written by youngest son Nathan (played by Ben Schwartz) has gone red hot, making a mess of all of their lives. Jack (played by Michael C. Hall), the oldest son, is failing in his career and now has to bend over backwards to convince his wife, Laura (played by Judy Greer), that certain, ahem, salacious events in Nathan's book weren't really committed by him. Sister Cheri (played by Sarah Silverman), a drama queen and struggling actress, can see the Peep World movie set from her window, and grows increasingly enraged watching a more successful actress play a horribly unflattering version of her. Her solution: sue her younger brother for libel.
Meanwhile, black sheep Joel (played by Rainn Wilson), a disaster in slow motion, plots to turn his life around at his family's expense, and Marilyn (played by Lesley Ann Warren), the children's mother, long-divorced from Henry, still carries a torch for her ex, one that's only inflamed further by the revelations in Peep World. For his part, the now-famous Nathan cluelessly wonders what the fuss is all about and basks in his success, much to the annoyance of all around him.
Over the course of 24 hours, this group of likable and unlikable misfits will summon their courage to come together for the family dinner they'll never forget.
Henson plays a corrections officer who falls in with Rainn Wilson's character.
Also out in theaters is Zack Snyder's 'Sucker Punch,' which stars Emily Browning, Vanessa Hudgens, Abbie Cornish, Jamie Chung, Jena Malone, Carla Gugino, Jon Hamm, Oscar Isaac and Scott Glenn.
'Sucker Punch' is an epic action fantasy that takes us into the vivid imagination of a young girl whose dream world provides the ultimate escape from her darker reality. Unrestrained by the boundaries of time and place, she is free to go where her mind takes her, and her incredible adventures blur the lines between what's real and what is imaginary.
She has been locked away against her will, but Babydoll (Emily Browning) has not lost her will to survive. Determined to fight for her freedom, she urges four other young girls -- the outspoken Rocket (Jena Malone), the street-smart Blondie (Vanessa Hudgens), the fiercely loyal Amber (Jamie Chung) and the reluctant Sweet Pea (Abbie Cornish) -- to band together and try to escape their terrible fate at the hands of their captors, Blue (Oscar Isaac), Madam Gorski (Carla Gugino) and the High Roller (Jon Hamm).
Led by Babydoll, the girls engage in fantastical warfare against everything from samurais to serpents, with a virtual arsenal at their disposal. Together, they must decide what they are willing to sacrifice in order to stay alive. But with the help of a Wise Man (Scott Glenn), their unbelievable journey -- if they succeed -- will set them free.
Out on DVD is the urban thriller 'ConSINsual,' starring Keena Ferguson and Siaka Massaquoi.
When a faithful husband compromises his own moral principles to satisfy his wife's perverse sexual appetite, it sets into motion a dangerous and potentially deadly sequence of events in this "must-see film."
Terrence Moore (Massaquoi) a successful chef and faithful husband, goes to the extreme to please his wife's (Ferguson) sexually inquisitive desires. What follows is a dense web of lust and manipulation as he is falsely accused of rape and may pay the ultimate price. Is it a crime? Or is it just a dirty little game of cat and mouse?
Directed by Paul D. Hannah, the film also stars Kathryn Taylor and Alexis Zibolis.
