EXTERMINATING ANGELS
A French filmmaker (Frederic Van Den Driessche) makes his own inquiry into women's sexuality, triggering more trouble than he bargained for in director Jean Claude Brissau's quasi-autobiographical erotic thriller. In French with English subtitles. Part of the CineVegas screening series at Neonopolis. (104 min.) NR; explicit sexuality, violence.
THE INVISIBLE
Attacked and left for dead, a promising writer ("War of the Worlds' "Justin Chatwin) finds himself in limbo, invisible to those still alive -- and desperate to discover what happened to him before it's too late. Margarita Levieva ("Vanished"), Marcia Gay Harden (currently onscreen in "The Hoax") and Christopher Marquette ("Joan of Arcadia") co-star in this supernatural thriller from "Blade: Trinity" director David S. Goyer. At multiple locations. (97 min.) PG-13; violence, criminality, sexual references and profanity, all involving teens.
KICKIN' IT OLD SKOOL
Justin Schumacher (Jamie Kennedy) has never left the '80s -- because he's been in a coma for 20 years following a freak break-dancing accident. Now, two decades later, he's awakened to find his dream girl (Maria Menounos) engaged to his grade-school nemesis (Michael Rosenbaum) and his parents buried in medical bills -- which means it's time to bust a move in a blast-from-the-past comedy featuring '80s faves Erik Estrada, John Ratzenberger, Emmanuelle Lewis and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper. At multiple locations. (107 min.) PG-13; crude and sexual content, profanity.
NEXT
A Las Vegas showroom magician gifted -- and cursed -- with the ability to foresee a few minutes into the future (Nicolas Cage, returning to Glitter City for the fourth time) makes a living gambling and performing cheap tricks, until terrorists threaten to detonate a nuclear device in L.A., prompting a government agent (Julianne Moore) to track him down in hopes of averting disaster. Jessica Biel co-stars; actionmeister Lee Tamahori ("Die Another Day," "XXX: State of the Union") directs this adaptation of a story by Philip K. Dick, whose work has inspired such future-shock classics as "Blade Runner" and "Minority Report." At multiple locations. (96 min.) PG-13; violent action, profanity.
