TOP CRITIC - Kevin Maher, "It’s the stuff in between the action, of course, that marks this movie as a masterpiece. Weir is one of the great thinking film-makers and a committed altruist, so the lion’s share of screen time is devoted to small acts of kindness on board." Captain "Lucky" Jack Aubrey (Crowe), renowned as a fighting captain in the British Navy, and ship's doctor Stephen Maturin (Bettany) are on board their ship, the H.M.S. Surprise, when they're suddenly attacked by a superior enemy. With the Surprise badly damaged and much of his crew injured, Aubrey is torn between duty and friendship as he pursues a high-stakes chase across two oceans, to intercept and capture his foe. It's a mission that can make his reputation -- or destroy Lucky Jack and his crew. In the course of the characters' epic journey, the movie travels the world -- from the coast of Brazil to the storm-tossed waters of Cape Horn, south through ice and snow, to the far side of the world, to the remote shores of The Galapagos Islands. Based on author Patrick O'Brian's series of Aubrey/Maturin novels, the story is set during the Napoleonic Wars.

*Certified Fresh and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 97% on RottenTomatoes.com and 'A' Score on CinemaScore.com* Critics Consensus - Bringing a sweet amount of dignity to the art of imitation, Song Sung Blue mostly avoids becoming a mere cover of the documentary on which it's based thanks to Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson's heartfelt performances. TOP CRITIC - Sandra Hall, "Rather than being sentimental, it’s a fundamentally good-natured film, paying homage, as Brewer says, to those who find their niche as entertainers beloved by those audiences who get the chance to find them and see what they can do." Audience Says - With pitch-perfect performances, Song Sung Blue hits every emotional chord, delivering a wholesome, family-friendly film and a fitting tribute to one of the most beloved singer-songwriters in modern music history. Mike (Hugh Jackman) and Claire Sardina (Kate Hudson) perform as Lightning and Thunder, a Milwaukee husband and wife Neil Diamond/Patsy Cline tribute act. They experience soaring success and devastating heartbreak in their musical journey together.

*Certified Fresh and Verified Hot Popcorn Fresh 92% on RottenTomatoes.com and 'B' Score on CinemaScore.com* Critics Consensus - A sly throwback to the lurid thrillers that used to dominate multiplexes, The Housemaid cleans up nicely thanks to its wicked sense of fun and a delightfully unnerving performance from Amanda Seyfried. TOP CRITIC - Sandra Hall, "Rather than being sentimental, it’s a fundamentally good-natured film, paying homage, as Brewer says, to those who find their niche as entertainers beloved by those audiences who get the chance to find them and see what they can do." Audience Says - Juicy and satisfying pop fare, The Housemaid offers a tantalizing peek through the proverbial peephole, sure to delight both newcomers and fans of the novel. Trying to escape her past, Millie (Sydney Sweeney) accepts a job as a live-in housemaid for the wealthy Nina (Amanda Seyfried) and Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar). But what begins as a dream job quickly unravels into something far more dangerous — a sexy, seductive game of secrets, scandal, and power.
