Why watch this film?
Mission Cross is another film from South Korea that proves the country's strength in action cinema—with great effects and breathtaking scenes. In the story, a hardworking househusband and former special forces officer is hiding his past from his wife, Mi Sun, who is a violent crimes detective. However, things go awry when a mysterious woman appears and claims that Kang Moo, the protagonist, is not who he seems to be. From there, we follow a film with well-crafted action scenes, accompanied by a good dose of comedy to break the tension.

Adventure
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies
Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson returns to Middle-earth with the final of three films based on J.R.R. Tolkien's enduring masterpiece. Set in Middle-earth 60 years before the epic Lord of the Rings trilogy, the adventure follows the journey of Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of dwarves on a journey into wild, treacherous lands swarming with beasts of every ilk. After reaching Erebor and encountering the dragon Smaug, Five Armies assemble for an epic battle that could decide the future of all in Middle-earth.
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug
Academy Award® winner Peter Jackson continues his Middle-earth adventure following Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) who's swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. In the company of thirteen dwarves and the wizard Gandalf the Grey (Ian McKellen), Bilbo enters the Lonely Mountain in possession of Gollum's "precious" ring and his keen blade, Sting. With an all-star cast and the effects wizardry of Jackson's award-winning Weta Workshop, Tolkien's epic story comes to life as never before imagined.
Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie
Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie is yet another animated film that marks Netflix's bet on the SpongeBob SquarePants universe. In the plot, Bikini Bottom has been stolen. Sandy Cheeks and SpongeBob watch in disbelief as everyone's favorite city is taken out of the ocean by a sinister and mysterious company. Now, the two must embark on an epic journey to Sandy's home state of Texas and enlist her family to help save Patrick, Squidward, Mr. Krabs, and the rest of the gang before time runs out. A somewhat naive movie, without bold or risky stakes, but one that entertains in this return to the SpongeBob universe in theaters. Perfect for young children.
Twisters
Twisters, as its title suggests, is a sequel to the classic 1996 movie Twister, and while its plot does not have a direct link to its predecessor, it essentially tells the same story, with some changes and updates. Set in the present day, the plot follows Kate (Daisy Edgar-Jones, Fresh), a meteorologist disillusioned by a past tornado tragedy, living in New York with a desk job. However, when she returns to Oklahoma to assist a colleague with tornado experiments, she meets Tyler (Glen Powell, Hit Man), a charismatic YouTuber who gets in her way. Although not a film that really offers anything innovative (if you saw the first one, you've seen this new version), the disaster sequences are spectacular, and both Edgar-Jones and Powell deliver excellent, emotive, and fun performances.
