HOBBS AND SHAW

(No shows Sunday or Monday.)

Show Times: 7:00 Nightly

Rated PG

146 minutes.

A spinoff of the Fast & Furious franchise, this standalone film sees Dwayne Johnson’s Luke Hobbs forming an unlikely alliance with Jason Statham’s Deckard Shaw.

After a cyber-genetically enhanced super soldier and anarchist named Brixton Lorr (Idris Elba) ambushes and kills the MI6 team led by Hattie Shaw (Vanessa Kirby) that was tasked with recovering a potential bio-weapon, Hattie injects herself with the pathogen to prevent it from falling into Brixton’s hands. Infected, she goes on the run from Brixton to find an antidote before it kills her and wipes out a large part of the world’s population.

American Diplomatic Security Services agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) and Hattie’s estranged brother, British rogue agent Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) are each dispatched to find her and bring her in. Sworn enemies, the two reluctantly partner up to save Hattie and the world when it becomes clear that neither of them can stop Brixton alone.


GOOD BOYS

Playing: OCT 4 - 10
(No shows Sunday or Monday.)

Show Times: 9:40 Nightly

Rated 14A

100 minutes.

ax (Jacob Tremblay), Thor (Brady Noon), and Lucas (Keith L. Williams) are typical adolescents, sharing misinformation and misadventures. When cool kid Soren (Izaac Wang) invites Max to his party, Max asks if his two best friends can come. Soren reluctantly agrees, but clearly the other kids at school think Thor and Lucas are misfits.

Knowing the big party will include girls, the three friends plan to prove they belong in the cool crowd by learning how to kiss. They use a drone to spy on Max’s teenage neighbor Hannah (Molly Gordon), whom he describes as a nymphomaniac. However, when she takes down their drone with a pool net, in retaliation they steal her purse, hoping to trade it for the drone. What they didn’t bargain on was Hannah’s level of anger when she realizes they have her purse, which contains her stash of drugs, so the boys go on the run, getting into more and more trouble along the way.
