Based on his own apocalyptic sci-fi comic strip of epic length and success, Katsuhiro Otomo’s AKIRA is set in a devastated Tokyo that is slowly being rebuilt 30 years after nuclear destruction. Ruled by a repressive military government, the masses are swayed by religious fanatics who predict the second coming of the legendary Akira. But the cult is challenged by Tetsuo, a young biker who is losing control of his recently discovered telekinetic powers - powers that threaten the end of the world.

E.T. (U)
Steven Spielberg’s magical sci-fi classic about a lost little visitor from another planet, who is befriended and protected by a kindly young boy, the film remains a perennial favourite for children and adults of all ages. The legendary moments are still spectacular, such as the moonlit bike ride, and the unbelievably moving finale for which there won’t be a dry eye left in the house. Whether seen for the first time or for the hundredth, it’s a big screen treat you can’t afford to miss.

THE GOONIES (PG)A lively fantasy adventure, produced by Spielberg from his own story in which a gang of American kids discover a pirate map and embark on a suitably perilous search for buried treasure.
