Charlize Theron and Javier Bardem top bill THE LAST FACE - Exclusive at Ayala Malls Cinemas

POTATO ON THE GO NEWS FEED (Movie):

For decades politics, power and corrupt governments scrambling for mineral rich territories,
have given rise to civil war in Africa and created conflict zones where the scale of destruction is now
unimaginable. Hundreds and thousands of people have been slaughtered in military coups, are emotionally destroyed through rape and gender-based violence, and have been victims of unspeakable human rights violations. The civilians who have managed to survive the decimation have been forced to flee to safety from rebels sewing terror in their regions, making up more than 9 million refugees and internally displaced people without resources to form a new life. It is a suffering that knows no end. The motion picture “The Last Face” is brought to the screen by a group of filmmakers and actors who coincidentally all happen to be humanitarians in their own right and unquestionably this resonance was their motivation to work with very the difficult material.

“The Last Face” centers around a love affair between Dr. Wren Petersen (Academy Award®
winner, Charlize Theron), the director of an international aid organization and Dr. Miguel Leon (Academy Award® winner, Javier Bardem), a relief-aid doctor.

Madonna's directorial debut W.E. arrives in theaters this September

With The Weinstein Company’s romantic drama “W.E.,” Madonna, one of the world's most famous women, tries to clean up the stained image of another famous American, Wallis Simpson — "that woman" for whom King Edward VIII gave up his throne in 1936, causing a crisis unprecedented in British history.

Simpson has been dead for nearly 26 years; her ex-king husband, the Duke of Windsor, has been gone for nearly 40. Neither had a good end but their story lives on as one of the most reproduced of royal sagas on stage and screen for most of the 20th century.

A hybrid of coming of age film and science fiction movie -- Super 8 Movie Review

Potato On-the-Go:

For the children of the 80s, I bet you still remember ET and Mac and Me, movies that dealt with kid's adventures with admirable alien life form.  But Super 8 is far from this genre of films.

In the summer of 1979, a group of friends in a small Ohio town witness a catastrophic train crash while making a movie with a Super 8 mm film camera [ now you know why it's entitled Super 8 =D ].  They suspect it was not not an accident.  Shortly after, unusual disappearances and inexplicable events begin to take place in town, and the local Deputy tries to uncover the truth - something more terrifying than any of them could have imagined.
