In Cinemas This Weekend: The surprise nomination for the Oscars

Only 2 films released today. Maybe it due to one of them being the shock nomination at the Oscar's for Best Picture. To me the film doesn't really draw me in so perhaps this is why they are releasing it as one of two this week. Will that make you see it though?



1. The film I am talking about it EXTREMELY LOUD AND INCREDIBLY CLOSE. It is the story of Thomas Horn, who searches New York to find the lock for a mysterious key that his Father left to him just before he died in the 9/11 terror attack. The cast includes Tom Hanks and Sandra Bullock as the parents, so their appeal may pull you in. Also starring: Max Von Sydow. Want to explore New York?



2. The second, and other, release of the week is GHOST RIDER: SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE. The unwanted sequel of Ghost Rider, starring Nicolas Cage as the rider whose face turns into a blazing skull. In the sequel he must stop the devil from taking human form and residing on Earth. Also starring: Ciaran Hinds, Idris Elba and Violante Placido. A blazing skull to warm you up?




Only 2 released this week. So far we seem to be receiving very little from the studios and hopefully once the Oscars are over we can begin to look forward to seeing the films we are all anticipating. Until then though take a look at the surprise package of the Oscars.
