Batman V Superman Dawn Of Justice
Following his titanic struggle against General Zod, Metropolis has been razed to the ground and Superman is the most controversial figure in the world. While for many he is still an emblem of hope, a growing number of people consider him a threat to humanity, seeking justice for the chaos he has brought to Earth. As far as Bruce Wayne is concerned, Superman is clearly a danger to society. He fears for the future of the world with such a reckless power left ungoverned, and so he dons his mask and cape to right Superman's wrongs. The rivalry between them is furious, fueled by bitterness and vengeance, and nothing can dissuade them from waging this war. However, a dark new threat arises in the form of a third man: one who has a power greater than either of them to endanger the world and cause total destruction!

How To Be Single
Cast: Dakota Johnson, Alison Brie, Leslie Mann, Rebel Wilson
This female-fronted comedy about life and love is set in New York City. When Alice (Johnson) is faced with singledom, Robin (Wilson) teaches her how to let her hair down. The film follows their friendship, as well as the stories of Meg (Mann), who makes the decision to get pregnant via an anonymous sperm donor, and Lucy (Brie), a woman obsessed with online dating. Ultimately, it leaves you wanting more Mann (so hilarious is her performance), though the message of self-love is welcome and well-receieved.

The Danish Girl
The Danish Girl is based on a true, historical novel which tells the story of Lili (Eddie Redmayne), who was originally called Einar, a landscape painter who discovered she was a woman after posing in women's clothes for her wife.
With the support of wife Gerda (Alicia Vikander) Einar had one of the first gender reassignment surgeries in the world, and lived out the rest of her life as Lili Elbe.
And if the superstar leading cast and exciting plot aren't enough, the film is being directed by Tom Hooper, who was also in the director's chair for Les Miserables and The King's Speech. So it's fair to say audiences are expecting something pretty special!

creed
Sylvester Stallone trains Michael B. Jordan in this visceral and compelling spin-off of the Rocky series. After a lifetime of pugilism, two-time world heavyweight boxing champion Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) is now retired and living in Philadelphia. But life throws another curveball at Rocky with the appearance of Adonis Johnson Creed (Michael B. Jordan), troubled son of his late rival-turned-friend Apollo Creed. Adonis never knew his father, who died in the ring, but is determined to follow in his footsteps. Rocky reluctantly agrees to become his trainer, even as he takes on an opponent more merciless than any he faced in the ring. Fantastic Four star Michael B. Jordan reunites with Fruitvale Station director Ryan Coogler, who stamps his own gritty mark on the Rocky franchise with this gripping spin-off movie. For added authenticity, real-life English pro boxer - and former three-time ABA Heavyweight champion - Tony Bellew plays Creed's main opponent 'Pretty' Ricky Conlan.

Daddy's Home
Rival dads Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg go to war in this laugh-out-loud comedy. Mild-mannered, strait-laced Brad (Will Ferrell) is married to Sarah (Linda Cardellini) and works hard to be a good stepdad to her two young children. Unfortunately, they seem resistant to his charms. Matters become even more difficult for Brad when their biological father Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) unexpectedly reappears on the scene. He's everything that Brad isn't: a buff, cool, leather-jacketed, motorbike-riding bad boy dude. Naturally, the kids are overjoyed to see him. Now Brad has a real fight on his hands to win their affections. The Other Guys stars Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg reunite for this hilarious comedy of escalating family warfare in which pets, treehouses and even goodnight kisses are used as weapons! The rib-tickling chaos is expertly orchestrated by the writer/director team behind 'Sex Drive' and 'Horrible Bosses 2'.

Carol
In an adaptation of Patricia Highsmith"s seminal novel The Price of Salt, CAROL follows two women from very different backgrounds who find themselves in an unexpected love affair in 1950s New York. As conventional norms of the time challenge their undeniable attraction, an honest story emerges to reveal the resilience of the heart in the face of change. A young woman in her 20s, Therese Belivet (Rooney Mara), is a clerk working in a Manhattan department store and dreaming of a more fulfilling life when she meets Carol (Cate Blanchett), an alluring woman trapped in a loveless, convenient marriage. As an immediate connection sparks between them, the innocence of their first encounter dims and their connection deepens. While Carol breaks free from the confines of marriage, her husband (Kyle Chandler) begins to question her competence as a mother as her involvement with Therese and close relationship with her best friend Abby (Sarah Paulson) come to light.
