The Uprising

A brutal medieval rebellion built on kinetic action

The Uprising drops you into 14th-century England as a peasant ignites a commoners' revolt against the King, a desperate fight for justice and survival. Paul Greengrass directs Andrew Garfield and Jamie Bell, so expect the ground-level intensity and forward drive his action work is known for. Ratings are not in yet, but for stakes and scale this earns the big screen.

The Fast and the Furious

A returning street-racing action classic

The Fast and the Furious is the 2001 original returning to the big screen, an action crime thriller where undercover cop Brian O'Conner infiltrates Dominic Toretto's street-racing crew and has to pick a side. Vin Diesel and Paul Walker drive the engine-roaring set pieces, and it rates 6.8 on IMDb. Screenings this week are very limited, so grab it while you can.
