Full Synopsis
The inner-workings of a corrupt Las Vegas casino
are exposed in Martin Scorsese's story of crime and punishment. The film chronicles the lives and times of three characters:
"Ace" Rothstein (Robert De Niro), a bookmaking wizard; Nicky Santoro (Joe Pesci), a Mafia underboss and longtime best friend to Ace; and Ginger McKenna (Sharon Stone, in a role she was born to play), a leggy ex-prostitute with a fondness for jewelry and a penchant
for playing the field. Ace plays by the rules (albeit Vegas rules, which, as he reminds the audience in voiceover, would make
him a criminal in any other state), while Nicky and Ginger lie, cheat, and steal their respective ways to the top. The film's
first hour and a half details their rise to power, while the second half follows their downfall as the FBI, corrupt government
officials, and angry mob bosses pick apart their Camelot piece by piece. ~ Jeremy Beday, All Movie Guide

Full Synopsis
James Foley directs the slick crime caper Confidence, written by first-time screenwriter Doug Jung. Told in flashback, smooth-talking con man Jake
Vig (Edward Burns) relates an elaborate scheme orchestrated by his gang :Gordo (Paul Giamatti), Miles (Brian Van Holt), and
Big Al (Louis Lombardi). The crew pulls off a swindling job stealing money from a guy named Lionel (Leland Orser), who turns
out to be a mob accountant for the crazy crime boss known as the King (Dustin Hoffman). After the damage has been done, Jake
and his crew attempt to pull off an even bigger scam to make up for their mistake. This time the con involves the King's enemy,
the mob-connected banker Morgan Price (Robert Forster). Two corrupt cops (Donal Logue and Luis Guzman) join Jake's team while
the King appoints his henchman, Lupus (Frankie G.) to oversee the operation. Rachel Weisz plays Lily, Jake's love interest
who is also in on the scam. Eventually, Andy Garcia shows up as FBI Agent Gunther Butan, who has been perpetually chasing
after Jake. Confidence premiered at the 2003 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide

This action-adventure, that features a terrorist
plot from The Fugitive (1993), saw its October 2001 release date moved back four months as a result of real-life terrorist
attacks on the United States. Arnold Schwarzenegger stars as Gordon Brewer, a Los Angeles firefighter who witnesses the deaths
of his wife and child, innocent victims of a terrorist attack on a motorcade carrying Colombian dignitaries. Responsibility
for the deadly explosion belongs to Claudio "The Wolf" Perrini (Cliff Curtis), a terrorist and rebel in Colombia's decade-long
civil war. When times passes with no suspect being brought to justice, Brewer rejects the advice of FBI agent Peter Brandt
(Elias Koteas) and travels to the jungles of Colombia to find and take revenge upon his family's murderer himself. Encountering
a complex web of death squads, right-wing military officials, guerrillas, terrorists and drug-lords, Brewer is aided in his
dangerous quest by an unlikely ally, the beautiful Selena Perrini (Francesca Neri), his quarry's wife. Collateral Damage (2002)
co-stars John Leguizamo and John Turturro. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

Full Synopsis
In this successful psychological thriller, a reluctant
agent of the Irish Republican Army discovers that some people just aren't who you expect them to be. Fergus (Stephen Rea) is an IRA "volunteer" who, despite personal misgivings, takes part in the kidnapping of a black
British soldier, Jody (Forest Whitaker), stationed in Northern Ireland. The IRA hopes to use Jody as a bargaining chip to win the release
of IRA operatives behind bars, but, while guarding Jody, Fergus becomes fast friends with his prisoner. Jody makes Fergus
promise him that if he dies, Fegus will look in on his girlfriend, Dil (Jaye Davidson), and see if she's all right. Jody escapes, and Fergus doesn't have the heart to shoot him; as
fate would have it, Jody runs from the woods into a street only to be run over by a British police vehicle, which then flushes
out the IRA compound. Fergus escapes to London, where he's wanted by the law for Jody's kidnapping and also by his former
girlfriend, IRA operative Jude (Miranda Richardson), who thinks he knows too much to fall into the hands of the British authorities. Good to his
word, Fergus tracks down Dil, and soon the two outcasts find themselves entering into a love affair, although Fergus discovers
that Dil is not the sort of woman he thought she was. Writer/director Neil Jordan won an Academy Award for his screenplay; the title song, which was a U.K. hit for Dave Berry in 1965, was re-recorded for the film by one-time Culture Club vocalist Boy George with backing by the Pet Shop Boys. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Full Synopsis
Based on the graphic novel by James O'Barr, this
fantasy follows Eric Draven (Brandon Lee), a rock musician who is murdered along with his fiancée Shelly (Sofia Shinas) by a group of marauding thugs who terrorize the decaying city in which they live. One year to
the day after his death (which happens to be Devil's Night), a mystical crow appears at Eric's grave; Eric rises from the
dead and, with the bird as his guide, goes on a mission to avenge himself against Top Dollar (Michael Wincott), the leader of the gang who killed him. Star Brandon Lee was killed while filming a scene in which he was shot with a shell from an improperly cleaned
gun that was supposed to be loaded with blanks. Like his father, martial arts superstar Bruce Lee, Brandon was fated to enjoy his greatest popular success after his premature death. ~ Mark Deming,
