In Cinemas This Weekend: A dying girl's quest to find the one.

We thought there were a lot of films released last week where as this week there are even more. Eight films are coming to various cinemas this weekend, ranging from love stories, foreign film, horror, drugs, thriller, comedy, British, and a biopic. There is literally something for everyone on show this week. It kind of gives you a dilemma of what to actually go and see but I think your best way of choosing will depend on what mood you are in on the night you go. Not all these films will be shown in the same cinemas but all have got wide release and will crop up somewhere near you. Have a look at them below.


1. Dakota Fanning plays a girl battling with leukaemia in NOW IS GOOD. She compiles her own 'what to do before I die' list and sets out to complete each one, with the top of her list being to lose her virginity. Expect tears and a powerful performance from Fanning. Also starring: Kaya Scodelario, Olivia Williams, & Jeremy Irvine. How would you cope?

2. Another sad tale is to be told in French film UNTOUCHABLE. After a wealthy man becomes paralysed following an accident, he hires a young man from a rough ended area to be his caretaker, where both inspire hope in each of their unhappy lives. Starring: Francois Cluzet, Omar Sy, Audrey Fleurot, & Anne Le Ny. A touching tale of two contrasting men?

She befriends the brother of this girl and when she does all amounts of horror threatens to kill her too. Also starring: Elisabeth Shue, Max Thieriot, & Gil Bellows. Who lives next to you?

Wow, that was exhausting! There are eight then for you to chose from and like I said there is a whole range of genres. As well as being a range of things to see there is also some fantastic acting talent on show. Cinemas should be chocker block this week as there is no excuse of there is 'nothing you really want to watch', this week has more or less everything. Enjoy.
