Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
Angelina Jolie embodies the great video game heroine in 'Lara Croft: Tomb Raider', one of the biggest box office successes with a female lead in an action movie. Jolie, who was on a roll with 'The Bone Collector' and 'Girl Interrupted', fit the role perfectly, creating an intriguing and powerful character. Also noteworthy is Jon Voight, the actress's father, who plays the role of... Lara Croft's father in the story. The feature works very well as entertainment, so much so that it spawned a sequel, 'Tomb Raider: The Origin of Life'. However, it should be said: those looking for a story completely related to the video games may be disappointed. After all, director Simon West (of 'Con Air') gave his vision of the plot, which takes on more 'Indiana Jones'-like traits.
The General's Daughter
One of John Travolta's most interesting (and unknown!) roles, 'The General's Daughter' is an unusual military suspense. After all, the plot delves into the investigation of a crime committed at the highest level of the American army, directly involving politicians, military personnel and people connected to power. Travolta (who was highly rated at the time after 'Beyond the Red Line') consolidates himself as the moral reserve of the story, tracing an interesting confessional narrative with the public. It is not Simon West's best film (from 'Con Air' and 'Lara Croft'), but it should keep the viewer in their seat throughout its almost two hours with a plot that provokes, instigates and, above all, makes the viewer reflect.
Skyfire
Movies about volcanoes have long been considered a great hit for the 'Afternoon Session'. Who doesn't remember 'Dante's Inferno'? 'Skyfire' brings back this premise and takes it to another level. The production follows a researcher who wants to help people in a theme park built around a volcano that is about to erupt. It's a mix of 'Dante's Inferno' and 'Jurassic World: The Dinosaur World'. It's an action movie that is also recommended for those who like 'Rampage: Total Destruction', 'San Andreas Fault Earthquake' and 'Skyscraper'. To make 'Skyfire' even more interesting, all it needed was Dwayne Johnson in the cast.
The Expendables 2
Action, muscle and a good dose of adrenaline. The return of The Expendables is the return of Sylvester Stallone to his best years after playing the legendary 'Rocky Balboa'. Stallone leads the cast, mostly composed of muscular men from the 80s and 90s, among which stand out Jean-Claude Van Damme ('Universal Soldier'), Chuck Norris ('Walker, Texas Ranger') and... Arnold Schwarzenegger ('Terminator'). We also have the new generation of warriors led by Liam Hemsworth ('The Hunger Games'). A movie with lots of testosterone, rude, violent and brave. 'The Expendables 2' will not disappoint fans of high voltage action full of big stars.
Con Air
Along with 'Frenzy', and 'Lord of War', the movie 'Con Air' forms a kind of holy trinity of action and crime films from Nicolas Cage. After all, they are intense films, with fun premises, and have become firmly established in popular imagination. In the case of 'Con Air', filmmaker Simon West ('The Expendables 2') hits it out of the park with the story. In it, a prisoner on parole hitches a ride on a flight with the most dangerous criminals in the United States. From there, Cage, John Malkovich ('The Box'), John Cusack ('2012'), Steve Buscemi ('The Death of Stalin') and Danny Trejo ('Machete Kills') create chaos inside this plane and make it one of the most entertaining and exciting action films of all time. Not to mention Nicolas Cage's long hair, which has become a perpetual symbol among fans of the American star.

American Heist
Starring Adrien Brody (Oscar winner for The Pianist) and Hayden Christensen (Star Wars), American Heist follows the story of two brothers on opposite sides of the law, forced to join forces in a bank robbery that goes horribly wrong . With intense action scenes and a narrative focused on the complexity of family relationships, the film stands out for Brody's performance and the tense atmosphere of New Orleans.
Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker
After his uncle dies, a young boy learns of his relative's true occupation as an undercover spy and is later recruited to be undercover himself. Based on the novel by Anthony Horowitz.

Now the Monk must look for a new scroll keeper. Kar (Seann William Scott) is an unlikely candidate, a streetwise young man whose only interest is himself. But when he inadvertently saves the Bulletproof Monk from capture, the two become partners in a scheme to save the world from the scroll's most avid pursuer.
