NEW IN THEATERS

Mission Impossible - Rogue Nation (PG-13) Trailer 1 and Trailer 2

The fifth Mission Impossible movie puts Tom Cruise against a group of rogue agents called The Syndicate. He's also branded an international fugitive after CIA director Alec Baldwin gets a congressional committee to disband the IMF.

He's still got the help of his team, led by Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, and Jeremy Renner. And as usual, Tom Cruise does his own stunts, the one everyone's talking about is the opening scene, where he hangs off the side of a plane.

They did that scene eight times before he was happy with it, without any special effects or stunt doubles. And he had to wear special contact lenses to protect his eyes while they were in flight.

The movie's written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie, who directed Tom Cruise in Jack Reacher, and did the screenplays for Edge of Tomorrow and Valkyrie. He's also the guy who won an Oscar for writing the Kevin Spacey movie "The Usual Suspects".

Vacation (R) Theatrical Trailer and the Red Band Trailer (Opened Wednesday)

Ed Helms is Rusty Griswold, the kid from the original movies, and Christina Applegate plays his wife. He decides to try to recapture his fondest childhood memory by driving HIS family across the country to Wally World, just like his dad did for him.

Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo have cameos as his parents, Leslie Mann is his sister Audrey, and Chris Hemsworth is Audrey's husband Stone Crandall. Anthony Michael Hall played Rusty in the original. Sadly, he does NOT have a cameo.
