Under the watchful eye of DCI James Langton (Ciar''n Hinds) she joins a team investigating a series of brutal and shocking murders. They started eight years ago and the body count - all prostitutes and drug users - was up to six but now a seventh body has been found. This time the victim is a beautiful young student with the murderer no less ugly in his slaughter. Is every victim innocent or are some more innocent than others? Determined to prove herself Anna uncovers a vital piece of information linking one man to all the killings a much-loved actor on the brink of stardom. He seems above suspicion and his smouldering good looks attract even Travis - but in getting closer to the truth is she getting too close to a killer?
Kelly Reilly, Ciaran Hinds and company are back for the fourth and final series based on Lynda La Plante's hugely successful crime novels, Above Suspicion. Silent Scream finds DCS James Langton (Hinds) enraged at having lost a bid for promotion, certain that someone has sold him out. That doesn’t make for the most supportive teamwork as DI Anna Travis (Reilly) and crew investigate the brutal murder of an acclaimed young film actress. The victim, Amanda Delaney, had secrets, lots of them. And enemies, lots of them too. But what she also appeared to have, among the married men and their angry wives, jealous actors and hard-edged directors, was someone who wanted something more, something more than she could give. An already tense team find themselves at the mercy of suspects many of whose very profession is one of deception. When you add envy, wild passion and desperate addiction into the mix, you find a case that is stirring up too much interest and too great a risk to all involved. The way things stand, there will be more than one victim before the final curtain falls on Silent Scream.

As he is drawn into a troubling case that seems to transcend even Father Lucas's skill he begins to glimpse a phenomenon science can't explain or control... and an evil so violent and terrifying that it forces him to question everything he believes.

Loosely based on Alexander Key's novel Escape to Witch Mountain, Race to Witch Mountain is not so much a remake of the 1975 film Escape to Witch Mountain as an entirely new film based on some key plot points from the former film. When two innocent-looking teens appear in Jack Bruno's (Dwayne Johnson) cab and tell him "we must travel in that direction", Jack thinks it's a bit strange but shrugs it off and starts driving. Soon they're being followed and chased off the road, but is it Jack's past catching up with him or something much larger? Sara (AnnaSophia Robb) and Seth (Alexander Ludwig) reluctantly confess that they are aliens from another planet, but Jack refuses to accept their statement until Sara starts moving things with her mind and Seth slips through the body of the car and deflects the SUV that's pursuing them. Sara and Seth tell Jack that they must recover their crashed spaceship in order to save earth from being taken over by aliens, so Jack takes them to see Dr. Alex Friedman (Carla Gugino); a scientist who he met by chance and who believes in the possible existence of extra-terrestrials. While the four are initially wary of one another, Dr. Friedman provides some valuable contacts and they begin trusting one another out of sheer necessity. Soon they're battling secret government agencies, heavily armed personnel, and even a cybernetic Siphon (which looks a lot like a Cylon from Battlestar Galactica) in a desperate attempt to gain access to the heavily fortified Witch Mountain and the crashed spacecraft. Action-packed car chases dominate the film (a bit excessively, in this reviewer's opinion), but the acting and chemistry between actors is good as is the suspense and intrigue. Rated PG due to sequences of action and violence, frightening and dangerous situations, and some thematic elements. (Ages 9 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

When Ambition Meets Faith A brutal bloody and gripping saga of obsession corruption and poisonous greed; Paul Thomas Anderson's Award Winning There Will Be Blood is a masterly unwavering inspection of a consummately evil man whose trailblazing spirit is equalled only by his murderous ambition. In the dying years of the nineteenth century Daniel Plainview (Daniel Day-Lewis) a struggling silver miner realises that true wealth lies in oil extraction. Driven by a passionate hatred for others and an intense psychological need to see competitors fail he heads for the oil-rich land of California in a bid to manipulate and exploit the landowners of dust-worn Little Boston in to selling him their properties. Forefront of the town is self-styled 'faith healer' Eli Sunday (Paul Dano) who is structuring his own sinister plan to funnel the residents' impending wealth into his self-founded church. As Plainview's empire expands so does his obsession with the intrinsic value of power and he becomes increasingly irascible and paranoid along the way. What follows is a vindictive ruthless and violent chain of events as Plainview fails to deliver on promises as he pits himself against the town's perturbed and unstable charismatic teenage preacher. In addition to stunning visuals and an exceptional captivating score from accomplished composer (and Radiohead guitarist) Jonny Greenwood director Paul Thomas Anderson (Magnolia) owes his best work to date to the incredible Academy Award winning performance as Plainview by Daniel Day-Lewis and the staggering portrayal of Eli Sunday by Paul Dano (Little Miss Sunshine). Bearing similarities to Citizen Kane and Giant There Will Be Blood is an intelligent thought-provoking and powerfully-eccentric epic masterpiece that is as enchanting as it is timeless.
