The Producers Failing Broadway producer Max Bialystock (Lane) forms a devious plan after a visit from his nervous accountant Leo Bloom (Broderick). Together they scheme to get rich by raising money for a guaranteed musical flop: Springtime For Hitler. Memoirs of a Geisha Sayuri (Zhang) remembers how she was sold into servitude and misery as a child, trained and molded by her mentor Mameha (Yeoh) into a celebrated geisha, and sustained against both her rival Hatsumomo's (Gong) treachery and the vicissitudes of war by her love for a man (Watanabe) she could not have. Munich After eleven Israeli athletes are murdered by a Palestinian terror group at the 1972 Munich Olympics, a hit squad is instigated by Israel's secret service agency to track down those thought to have organized the atrocity. But alongside their achievements, the team will come to question the morality and effectiveness of their fateful mission. Match Point One-time tennis pro Chris (Rhys-Meyers) is working as a coach when he meets wealthy posh bird Chloe (Mortimer). After they marry he embarks on an affair with his brother-in-law's fiancée, Nola (Johansson), forming a love triangle that has violent consequences. Underworld: Evolution Vampiric vixen Selene and werewolf-vamp hybrid Michael, both on the run, set out to stop the progenitors of both races from wiping out mankind. Jarhead It's 1990. Twenty year-old US Marine Anthony Swofford (Gyllenhaal) is sent to the Saudi Arabian desert as Saddam has invaded Kuwait and Uncle Sam has promised to do something about it. 'Swoff' is part of the 'elite' STA (Surveillance and Target Acquisition) platoon: one-shot, one-kill sniping experts. He wants to see action. But all he can see is sand... The 'Hall of Fame' At this All-Nighter we are going to do something new, we are running a competition called the 'Hall of Fame'. The idea behind the 'Hall of Fame' is that the Hall that gets the biggest percentage of students in for the whole All-Nighter will win. To qualify for this the student will need to have purchased an advance ticket for all six films. During the event, the winning hall will be announced and a trophy will be presented. As well as a trophy we will give the winning hall a maximum cash prize of up to £100 to spend as they see fit. If this wasn't enough we are also offering the students from the winning hall, that bought the tickets, half price entry to all of iCU Cinema's showing in the 2006 summer term. This is a great competition that we are running; the deadline to get your hall involved has closed. But halls can still be nominated, to do this you must let the person at the box office know which hall you wish to choose when your ticket gets checked.
