MUPPETS<br />
MOST WANTED<br />
OPENS MARCH 21<br />
Admit it, you want to see the<br />
new Muppets movie even<br />
more than your kid does.<br />
The story of a criminal Kermit<br />
lookalike infiltrating the<br />
Muppets gang is buoyed by<br />
the inclusion of A-list human<br />
talent, including Tina Fey,<br />
Tom Hiddleston, Christoph<br />
Waltz, Lady Gaga and<br />
Ricky Gervais.<br />
ANNIE<br />
OPENS DECEMBER 19<br />
It’s been ages since we’ve<br />
seen a feel-good, family<br />
musical, and this adaptation<br />
of the long-running Broadway<br />
show fits the bill, complete<br />
with high-wattage star<br />
Jamie Foxx as the benefactor<br />
who aids orphan Annie,<br />
played by up-and-coming<br />
star (and Oscar nominee for<br />
Beasts of the Southern Wild)<br />
Quvenzhané Wallis.<br />
THE LEGO MOVIE<br />
OPENS FEBRUARY 7<br />
Children will enjoy seeing their<br />
favourite LEGO characters<br />
come to life, but what’ll<br />
save The LEGO Movie from<br />
becoming an extended<br />
commercial is its sly,<br />
wink-wink humour that<br />
not only takes a poke at<br />
commercialism —<br />
President Business (Will<br />
Ferrell) is the film’s villain —<br />
but heroes such as Batman<br />
(Will Arnett) and Wonder<br />
Woman (Cobie Smulders).<br />
