ABOUT THE FILM

2018 / 12A / 121 mins

Director: Jon M. Chu
Cast: Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Ken Jeong, Michelle Yeoh, Awkwafina

Jon M. Chu (Now You See Me 2) directs the luxurious romantic comedy based on the acclaimed worldwide bestseller by Kevin Kwan.

Crazy Rich Asians follows New Yorker Rachel Chu (Constance Wu) as she accompanies her longtime boyfriend, Nick Young (Henry Golding), to his best friend’s wedding in Singapore. Excited about visiting Asia for the first time, but nervous about meeting Nick’s family, Rachel is surprised to learn Nick has neglected to mention a few key details about his life.

Not only is he the scion of one of the country’s wealthiest families, but also one of its most sought-after bachelors. Being on Nick’s arm puts a target on Rachel’s back, with jealous socialites and, worse, Nick’s own disapproving mother (Michelle Yeoh) taking aim.

Featuring a fantastic ensemble cast, including Ken Jeong (The Hangover), Awkwafina (Nora From Queens) and Nico Santos (Superstore), and some of the most lavish sets imaginable, Crazy Rich Asians is as hilarious as it is romantic.

ABOUT THE FILM

2020 / 12A / 150 mins

Director: Christopher Nolan

Starring: John David Washington, Kenneth Branagh, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Sir Michael Caine

Christopher Nolan (Inception, Dunkirk) returns with the unmissable blockbuster Tenet, an original, action-packed spy spectacle with jaw-dropping visuals.

John David Washington (BlackKklansman) stars as the Protagonist. Armed with only one word, ‘Tenet’, the Protagonist joins with shadowy government forces to fight for the survival of the entire planet and avert the start of World War Three.

Journeying through a twilight world of international espionage on a mission that will warp any sense of real time, the Protagonist must master a terrifying, cutting-edge technology and track down the monstrous Russian oligarch, Sator (Kenneth Branagh).

Lavishly filmed over seven countries, with more than a hint of James Bond’s swagger, Tenet is an awe-inspiring blockbuster, from one of the most daring filmmakers working today.

Featuring a stellar cast including Robert Pattinson (The Lighthouse), Elizabeth Debicki (Widows) and Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Nocturnal Animals), alongside a wickedly villainous turn by Branagh and a cameo from Nolan’s lucky charm, Sir Michael Caine.

About the Film

2015 / U / 101 mins

Director: Pete Docter, Ronnie del Carmen
Starring: Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Bill Hader, Lewis Black, Mindy Kaling

Disney Pixar’s universally acclaimed Inside Out is coming to Delapré!

Growing up can be a bumpy road, and it’s no exception for Riley. Uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco, she’s suddenly thrown into a rollercoaster of emotions.

Luckily for Riley, her emotions are working extra hard to keep her safe and happy. There’s Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). They all live together in Headquarters, the control centre in Riley’s mind, where they help advise her through everyday life.

But just as she needs them most, Joy and Sadness are spectacularly propelled from Headquarters – lost in the labyrinths of her memories. Without them, Riley may never be happy again. Can they find their way back to Headquarters in time?

From Pete Docter, the director of Monsters Inc. and Up, Inside Out is hilarious, moving and deeply poignant.

About the Film

2020 / 12A / 151 mins

Director: Patty Jenkins
Starring: Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Kristen Wiig, Pedro Pascal

The long-awaited sequel to Wonder Woman is an action-packed adventure through the vibrant and excessive 1980s.

Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) lives quietly in Washington DC. Though she’s come into her full powers, she maintains a low profile by curating ancient artefacts at the Smithsonian Museum, and only performing heroic acts undercover.

When the FBI contact the Museum about a mysterious gemstone, Diana’s new colleague (Kristen Wiig) must figure out its purpose and worth. But before she can do so, greedy conman, Maxwell Lord (Pedro Pascal) snatches it for himself.

Now Diana will have to muster all of her strength, wisdom and courage as she finds herself squaring off against the increasingly powerful Lord and a new villain, who possesses superhuman strength and agility.

As more cataclysmic events push the world to the edge of destruction, can mighty Wonder Woman save humankind once again?
