Heads of State is a particularly dumb action-comedy starring John Cena and Idris Elba as the President of the United States and the Prime Minister of Britain who must put their mutual animosity aside when a terrorist organization attempts to kill them as part of a larger conspiracy to destroy NATO. We also get Priyanka Chopra Jonas as a MI6 officer, and former flame to the British Prime Minister, who eventually teams up with the pair in an attempt to get both of them to Italy alive. The most interesting moment of the entire film comes in the form of a montage flashback sequence explaining how she caught up with them which, from the looks of it, would have made a far better film than the one we got.

Throwback Thursday takes us back to 2000 when former car thief Memphis Raines (Nicolas Cage) is brought out of retirement to put together a crew to prevent his idiot younger brother Kip (Giovanni Ribisi) from being killed after botching a major job for the sociopathic Raymond Calitri (Christopher Eccleston). Calling on his old friends, and incorporating Kip’s new ones, the crew attempts to steal 50 cars in one night, without getting caught by the police (Delroy Lindo and Timothy Olyphant), and deliver them all to Calitri on the docks.

A B-movie horror flick, A Hard Place gives us a group armed robbers (most notably Rachel Amanda Bryant, Kevin Caliber, and Jennifer Michelle Stone II)  who end up in the desolate wilderness after a job stuck in the middle of a war between two neighboring redneck families of monsters. On one side there are the plant-based “Guardians” who roam the woods during the day and on the other are the more vampiric zombies who turn during the full moon. The arrival of the fresh meat also coincides with a solar eclipse which will bring both sets of monsters into battle at full strength.

The latest from writer/director Joe Carnahan is a mostly forgettable throwaway action flick featuring Kerry Washington and Omar Sy as former black-ops who come back together to protect their young son (Jahleel Kamara) and kill their former boss (Mark Strong) who has raised the bounty on their heads after a situation in a bank alerts him to their present. The rest of the cast includes the pair’s former co-workers (Marvin Jones III, Yoson An, Natalia Reyes, Jénel Stevens, and Sala Baker) now hunting them and other agents whose loyalties are more circumspect (Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Method Man, Marshall Cook, and Ed Quinn).

This is  bad. Inoffensive, but bad. Geared towards younger audiences, and fans of the game which has been around since 2011, A Minecraft Movie is a train wreck of a film that other than it’s design has very little going for it. The story involves people finding their way into this alternate dimension where you can build basically any squarish item you can imagine. We start we Steve (Jack Black) who is the first to find the realm but unintentionally puts it in danger from the equivalent of a failed America’s Got Talent contestant turned evil queen.
