A dystopian fever dreams action film that follows Boy, a deaf-mute with a vibrant imagination. When his family is murdered, a mysterious shaman trains him to repress his childish imagination and become an instrument of death.
I am sure this movie is going to be an action-packed entertainment brought to South Africa by Empire Entertainment. I will definitely try to watch the same within the first week of its release.
Aum Namah Shivay!

After a remote diamond mine collapses in far northern Canada, a ‘big-rig’ ice road driver (Neeson) must lead an impossible rescue mission over a frozen ocean to save the trapped miners. Contending with thawing waters and a massive storm, they discover the real threat is one they never saw coming.
Fun Facts:
The premise of the film is based on series like “Ice Road Truckers” and “Outback Truckers” which were hugely popular. The concept of riding a big rig truck over a frozen body of water with tons of merchandise in the back is enough to make most of us lose our courage – but not these drivers!
The Ice Road is set in Canada’s Northwest Territories. The road itself is around 250 miles long and is primarily built over frozen lakes. The road is officially known as the Tibbitt to Contwoyto Winter Road.
The movie is based on one road, although the story is purely fictional. If you want to read a book about the real ice road, check out Denison’s Ice Road, Edith Iglauer’s non-fiction recount of traversing the road itself.
Liam Neeson is as bankable as taxes and death. His action films always do well and he has appeal with both men and women as the hero.
Liam’s character’s brother, Gurty, is a veteran who served in Iraq. He received a bullet in his head from a sniper, and the surgeons didn't take the bullet out, they thought it would have been too dangerous. As a result, he's got a condition called aphasia. Words come out in the wrong order and he doesn’t always make sense but he’s a brilliant mechanic.
The big rigs are stars all on their own. Liam went out with a rig driver and was impressed by how much finesse it takes to drive a truck. And the back of the cabs where they sleep is so big that at 6”4, Liam could stand upright As he put it “I have been in smaller New York apartments.”
Mining is big business in our country and to see the corners that are cut at the management level is a reminder that people’s welfare should always come first – not the profit.

SYNOPSIS:
“What if I told you I could get you to fall in love with me…?”
College-bound romantic Daniel Bae and Jamaica-born pragmatist Natasha Kingsley meet—and fall for each other—over one magical day amidst the fervour and flurry of New York City. Sparks immediately fly between these two strangers, who might never have met had fate not given them a little push. But will fate be enough to take these teens from star-crossed to lucky in love? With just hours left on the clock in what looks to be her last day in the U.S., Natasha is fighting against her family’s deportation as fiercely as she’s fighting her budding feelings for Daniel, who is working just as hard to convince her they are destined to be together.
A modern-day story about finding love against all odds, “The Sun Is Also a Star” explores whether our lives are determined by fate or the random events of the universe.
The film is based on the acclaimed bestseller by Everything, Everything author Nicola Yoon. The Sun Is Also a Star was #1 on the New York Times bestseller list and has received multiple accolades, including: 2016 National Book Award Finalist; Amazon’s Best Book of 2016 in YA; Amazon’s Top 20 Children’s Books of 2016 in YA; the New York Times Notable Children’s Books of 2016; and Entertainment Weekly’s 10 Best Books of 2016.
