Will Smith in Hancock
Hancock(12A)
Starring: Will Smith, Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman.
In this rather unusual take on the superhero genre, Will Smith plays John Hancock, a superhero who has a tendency to perform his rescue operations whilst under the influence of alcohol. The people of Los Angeles do not take kindly to his reckless antics and his failure to be a suitable role model. However a PR expert named Ray, played by Bateman, agrees to help improve Hancock's public image after he saves his life. Ray soon has reason to regret this decision when Hancock becomes romantically involved with his wife Mary(Theron).

Kung Fu Panda(PG)
Starring: Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, Ian Mc Shane and Jackie Chan.
Fans of animated features should be in for a real treat with such a superior cast lending their voices to Kung Fu Panda. As the title suggests, the film revolves around a somewhat lazy panda named Po, voiced by Jack Black, who has a passion for kung fu and wishes to break free from his job in the family noodle shop. When the opportunity presents itself, Po jumps at the chance of joining the kung fu world where he learns the techniques required under the leadership of Shifu(Hoffman). However when a vengeful and dangerous snow leopard(McShane), appears on the scene, Po must put his newly acquired skills to the ultimate test in order to defend all those around him from the imminent threat.
