Firewall
Jack Stanfield (Harrison Ford) is a bank security expert, whose specialty is designing infallible theft proof financial computer systems. But there's a hidden vulnerability in the system he didn't account for, himself. When a ruthless criminal mastermind kidnaps his family, Jack is forced to find a flaw in his system and steal $100 million. With the lives of his wife and children at stake and under constant surveillance, he has only hours to find a loophole in the thief's own impenetrable system of subterfuge and false identities to beat him at his own game. Another action packed outing for Ford.

Wallace & Gromit: Curse of the Were-Rabbit

As the annual Giant Vegetable Competition approaches, the two enterprising chums have been cashing in with their pest control outfit, "Anti-Pesto," which humanely dispatches the rabbits that try to invade the town's gardens. Suddenly, a huge, mysterious, beast begins attacking the town's sacred vegetable plots at night, and the competition hostess, Lady Tottington, commissions Anti-Pesto to catch it and save the day. Lying in wait, however, is Lady Tottington's snobby suitor, Victor Quartermaine, who'd rather shoot the beast and secure the position of local hero, not to mention Lady Tottington's hand in marriage. With the fate of the competition in the balance, Lady Tottington is eventually forced to allow Victor to hunt down the vegetable chomping marauder. Little does she know that Victor's real intent could have dire consequences for her and our two heroes.
