Movie Sneak Peeks for November 2008

It is time, once again, to take a sneak peek at the movies that are scheduled to come out next month; in this case, November of 2008. There are some sequels like Transporter 3, Madagascar 2, and Daniel Craig's second turn as James Bond. There are even a couple of early Christmas releases. Let's take a look to see what Hollywood has to offer.

Scheduled for release on November 7, 2008:

Miramax Films offers The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, starring Vera Farmiga, Rupert Friend, Cara Horgan, Jack Scanlon, and David Thewlis. The movie is war drama about a young German boy who lives with his family in the Krakow concentration camps of Poland. While there, however, he makes friends with a little Jewish boy who is imprisoned there. They strike up a friendship that cross religious lines and nationalities. But is it enough to save either of the boys' lives?

In Killshot, Rosario Dawson joins together with Thomas Jane, Johnny Knoxville, Diane Lane, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Mickey Rourke for an action adventure thriller. In the film, a woman and her husband (Lane and Jane) find themselves the targets of killers after they unwittingly uncover an extortion plan. The discovery becomes deadly not only for them, but for many others as well.

Dreamworks Animation hopes for a repeat success with Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. This movie takes up where the last one left off with Alex, Gloria, Julien, Marty, Maurice, and Melman still stranded in Madagascar. But the penguins have repaired a crashed plane in hopes of facilitating the animals' escape. Unfortunately, the flight doesn't go quite the way it was planned. Instead of taking them back to their Central Park home, they end up in the wilds of Africa. Will they decide to stay there or is home still where the heart is?
