The Bucket List The Bucket List
Here is a nice bonus for you, MatchFlick already has a couple of reviews on this film. I personally wrote one of them after attending a screener in early December. You can check out my review here:The Bucket List Review (click)
When corporate mogul Edward Cole (Jack Nicholson) and mechanic Carter Chambers (Morgan Freeman) wind up in the same hospital room, the two terminally ill men bust out of the cancer ward with a plan to experience life to the fullest before they kick the bucket. In a race against the reaper, the new friends hit the tables in Monte Carlo, down obscene amounts of caviar and tear up the road in supercharged cars. Rob Reiner directs this comic caper.

First Sunday
First Sunday lots to be another weak comedy with a good many black comedians. It follows two small time crooks Durell (Ice Cube) and LeeJohn (Tracy Morgan,) who run into a bind and need to raise $17,000 in a week. The easiest solution to them seems to be robbing their neighborhood church. A simple plan turns into an entire evening of unplanned events.
First Sunday

In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale
A man named Farmer sets out to rescue his kidnapped wife and avenge the death of his son -- two acts committed by the Krugs, a race of animal-warriors who are controlled by the evil Gallian. Featuring an all star cast with Jason Statham, John Rhys-Davies, Ray Liotta, Matthew Lillard, Leelee Sobieski, Burt Reynolds and Ron Perlman.

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie
Three lazy misfits - very timid Elliot (Larry the Cucumber), lazy Sedgewick (Mr. Lunt) and no self-confident George (Pa Grape) - dream of the day of putting on a show about pirates. With their own problems of might not having this dream come true, they soon find themselves traveling back in time into the 17th century and begin a quest to rescue a royal family from an evil tyrant, and learn about being pirates.
