A fantasy action-thriller based on the work of master novelist Stephen King opens at Nu Metro the Glen this week, as well as a crime comedy starring Daniel Craig (aka James Bond) in an unexpected new role.
The Dark Tower (10-12PG V)
Their war is coming to our world. The last gunslinger, Roland Deschain (Idris Elba), has been locked in an eternal battle with Walter O’Dim (Matthew McConaughey), also known as the Man in Black, determined to prevent him from toppling the Dark Tower, which holds the universe together. With the fate of the worlds at stake, good and evil will collide in the ultimate battle as only Roland can defend the Tower from the Man in Black. Most of the scenes from The Dark Tower were filmed right here in South Africa, with the supporting cast also featuring a host of well-known local actors (including Robert Whitehead and Leeanda Reddy). It is a suspenseful thriller filled with spectacular special effects and will be screened in 4K Ultra High Definition on one of Johannesburg’s largest cinema screens in the Xtreme cinema at Nu Metro The Glen.
Logan Lucky (10-12PG LV)
This new crime comedy from Steven Soderbergh (the acclaimed director of Ocean’s 11, 12, 13 and Magic Mike) returns to the big screen with a star-studded cast – including Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, Seth MacFarlane, Riley Keough, Katie Holmes, Katherine Waterston, Dwight Yoakam, Brian Gleeson, Hilary Swank and Daniel Craig. Trying to reverse a family curse, brothers Jimmy and Clyde Logan set out to execute an elaborate robbery during the legendary Coca-Cola 600 race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina, USA. Logan Lucky will be showing in the VIP cinema at Nu Metro the Glen – featuring luxurious leather reclining seats, a licensed bar/lounge and in-cinema dining menu.
