IRON EAGLE III: ACES
(Academy Award® winner Louis Gossett, Jr.) is back, working air shows with his friends in vintage planes. When he discovers a friend is mixed up in a drug-smuggling scheme, he decides to take immediate action. It turns out that the lives of some villagers in Peru are at stake, and Chappy and his friends embark on a rescue mission in their ancient planes to free them. This action-packed conclusion to the high-flying Iron Eagle series delivers spectacular air and ground battles, outstanding special effects and the most unique combination of air weaponry ever filmed. The movie also features two-time “Ms. Olympia” Rachel McLish, Rob Estes (TV’s Melrose Place, TV’s Silk Stalkings) and Paul Freeman (Raiders of the Lost Ark).

DETONATOR II: NIGHT WATCH Rated R for some violence · 99 minutes
Pierce Brosnan (Die Another Day, the upcoming After the Sunset) stars in this fast-paced thriller based on Night Watch by Alistar MacLean (The Guns of Navarone and Lawrence of Arabia). Mike Graham (Brosnan) and Sabrina Carver (Alexandra Paul, TV’s Melrose Place, TV’s Baywatch), top agents for the UN, are sent to recover a stolen Rembrandt. Crossing the globe in pursuit of the painting, the secret agents stumble upon a North Korean bomb designed to destroy the communications systems of the West. What starts as a straightforward mission ends in a complex web of global conspiracy that threatens the future of the modern world.

LIVE WIRE: HUMAN TIMEBOMB
Special agent Jim Parker was the best the FBI had to offer. Now, he’s a prisoner of technology. When a Cuban general captures him and controls his every move through a microchip implanted in his neck, Parker becomes a human timebomb, the most efficient weapon of war the world has ever seen. A professional sharpshooter and a martial arts expert, Parker has turned from this country’s greatest fighting asset to its most feared enemy. When Parker is commanded to kill, he does so on cue. And, now that the general has seen what his human timebomb can do, he prepares for the ultimate mission.
