In a world where humans and talking dogs co-exist, a macho but lonely Rottweiler police dog named Max reluctantly teams up with an FBI agent named Frank (Will Arnett) after a failed attempt to recover a stolen baby panda. A hot tip leads Max and Frank to Las Vegas for the world’s most exclusive dog show. To find the panda, Max goes undercover as a contestant to get the lowdown from his fellow canines. With help from their new friends, the crime-fighting duo must now foil another kidnapping plot and rescue other valuable animals from a gang of greedy smugglers. Show Dogs is holiday movie-fun with lots of LOL moments.

American Animals (16 DLV)

Showing in VIP luxury at Nu Metro Woodlands only.

American Animals is an extraordinary and thrilling film about two varsity buddies, Warren Lipka (Evan Peters) and Spencer Reinhard (Barry Koeghan) who, desperate to break out of the ordinary, brazenly attempts to execute one of the most audacious art heists in US history at Transylvania University in Lexington, Kentucky, in 2004. Enlisting two more friends, budding accountant Eric Borsuk (Jared Abrahamson) and fitness fanatic Chas Allen (Blake Jenner), the gang plots to steal valuable art books valued at $10-million … a scheme which eventually goes bust and ends in jail time for all involved, placing their seemingly bright futures in limbo! This captivating true story premiered to great critical acclaim at the Sundance Film Festival in January.
