The Damned United: Michael Sheen stars as English soccer coach Brian Clough. Surprise, he's cocky and charming.
Antichrist: Lars von Trier, misogyny, sex, and torture for all involved, viewers included.
Astro Boy: An American adaptation of 1960s anime. Nicolas Cage supplies a voice — take that as you will.
