M-Net Movies will show three good movies tomorrow night
(September 6):
The November Man: Premiere DStv Channel
103 at 20h30 The action crime thriller was directed by Roger Donaldson in 2014
and stars Pierce Brosnan, Luke Bracey and Olga Kurylenko. The end of communism
did not end Hollywood’s love of spy thrillers; it merely changed the rules. A
physical war has replaced a nuclear standoff as fuel for intriguing tales of
espionage. Pierce Brosnan, a former James Bond, slotted seamlessly into the
part of CIA operative.
A retired CIA agent is drawn back into action to extract
a woman with important connections and information from Russia, in order to
bring a war criminal to book. One of the men he trained many years ago may now
have become his mortal enemy.
The Other Woman: Movies Showcase DStv
Channel 108 at 20h00. The comedy romance stars Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann and
Kate Upton and was directed by Nick Cassavetes in 2014.
The First Wives Club, a 1996
film starring Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler and Diane Keaton, sparked the idea of a
modern version featuring three woman conspiring to avenge their humiliation,
with Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann and Kate Upton teaming up to hit back where it
hurts.
A playboy’s nasty habit to court more than one women at
the same time hits a snag when they meet each other. Hell, as the proverb goes,
hath no fury like a woman scorned, and when hell descends from three directions
at once, the target is in for one fiery surprise after the other.
Bad Company: Movies Showcase DStv
Channel 108 (check time). Anthony Hopkins, Chris Rock and Kerry Washington star
in this actin comedy directed by Joel Schumacher in 2002.
In 2001, a film about an Islamic terrorist group planning
a huge attack on New York was just too close to home: this shrewd political
thriller, starring Anthony Hopkins and Chris Rock, was the last major
production to film in the World Trade Centre. Its release was pushed back to
2002.
The war on terrorism is dealt a hefty blow when a highly
skilled CIA operative is killed, and the agency recruits the deceased’s identical
twin brother to fill the gap. However, a terrorist group intent on causing
havoc in New York city gets wind of this and sets an evil scheme in motion.
