Set in a strange, colorful land populated by fairy tale characters, SHREK is a hilarious comedy that will win over audiences of children and adults alike. Shrek (voiced by Mike Myers) is a fearsome green ogre living in isolation in his own cozy little swamp. He is not receptive to visitors, and fends off the occasional party of torch-wielding villagers with ease. But when the power-hungry Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow) turns Shrek's swamp into a relocation camp for dozens of banished fairy-tale characters (including some pesky dwarves, wolves, and fairies) Shrek's quiet, introverted life is ruined. Joined by the talkative Donkey (Eddie Murphy), Shrek makes his way to Farquaad's realm of Duloc, where the Lord makes Shrek an offer: He will rid Shrek's land of the unwanted visitors if Shrek will go on a simple quest to free Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) from her remote, dragon-guarded castle and convince her to marry Farquaad. On their quest, Shrek and Donkey run into a number of bizarre situations, and Shrek finds himself realizing that he isn't quite the fearsome monster he has always made himself out to be. Reinventing the traditional fairy tale adventure, SHREK features gorgeous computer animation, a unique sense of humor, and compelling characters--especially Eddie Murphy's lovable Donkey.

In ancient Greece, the passion of two of history's most legendary lovers, Paris, Prince of Troy (ORLANDO BLOOM) and Helen (DIANE KRUGER), Queen of Sparta, ignites a war that will devastate a civilization. When Paris steals Helen away from her husband, King Menelaus (BRENDAN GLEESON), it is an insult that cannot be suffered. Familial pride dictates that an affront to Menelaus is an affront to his brother Agamemnon (BRIAN COX), powerful King of the Myceneans, who soon unites all the massive tribes of Greece to steal Helen back from Troy in defense of his brother's honor.
In truth, Agamemnon's pursuit of honor is corrupted by his overwhelming greed - he needs control of Troy to ensure the supremacy of his already vast empire. The walled city, under the leadership of King Prium (PETER O'TOOLE) and defended by mighty Prince Hector (ERIC BANA), is a citadel that no army has been able to breach. One man alone stands as the key to victory or defeat over Troy - Achilles (BRAD PITT), believed to be the greatest warrior alive.
Arrogant, rebellious and seemingly invincible, Achilles has no allegiance to anyone or anything, save his own glory. It is his insatiable hunger for eternal renown that leads him to attack the gates of Troy under Agamemnon's banner - but it will be love that ultimately decides his fate.
Two worlds will go to war for honor and power. Thousands will fall in pursuit of glory. And for love, a nation will burn to the ground.

England, 1645: After waging three years of bloody civil war, victiry is in hands of the Puritans who have overthown King Charles I and won their battle against corruption. Two heroes have emerged from the war - the leaders of the New Model Army, Lord General Thomas Fairfax and his loyal deputy General Oliver Cromwell. The war may be won, but their mission is to unite and reform the country. Their bond of friendship may be strong, but what lies ahead of them proves to be the true test. As a member of the aristocracy, Fairfax desires moderate reform of the monarchy, but Cromwell has other ideas…
Returning from the war, Fairfax enjoys a passionate reunion with his beloved wife, Lady Anne. However, Anne retains a commitment to the monarchy and believes, along with many in Parliament, that the war has served as a satisfactory lesson to King Charles I. Under the leadership of Speaker of the House, a faction of Parliament secretly agree to return the King to power in exchange for valuable gifts and the promise of favour. Cromwell is outraged: he employs his troops to recover the treasures used for bribery and puts the traitorous MPs on trial. Fairfax learns that Cromwell has no intention of conducting a fair trial and that he has signed the King's death warrant in advance. As the King's execution proceeds, Fairfax and Anne flee London. Once in the company of Royalist acquaintances Fairfax realises he still believes in the principles he fought for, and he must return to London and try to temper Cromwell's extremism. But with the King dead, Cromwell's puritanical regime spirals out of control. His armies spread violence and fear througout the country, with frequent raids on the theatres, gambling dens and public houses. Cromwell is behaving more like an Emperor every day, and tension between the two old friends builds to a point where Fairfax realises Cromwell must be stopped. Fairfax engages a soldier colleague to shoot Cromwell during one of his increasingly royal appearances at Greenwich Palace…

This film is based on "Our Sunshine" by Robert Drew, a novel based on the life of Australian bushranger and icon, Ned Kelly. It tells of his life as a bushranger in north-west Victoria, where he lived all his life. He, his brother Dan, and two other men, Steve Hart and Joe Byrne, formed a gang. These four robbed a bank and hijacked an entire town for 3 days. They killed three policemen who were hunting them. They then took over a pub in Glenrowan, where they basically held a party, waiting for a train full of police to derail at a part of the track that they tore up. However a school teacher warned the train, so the gang and all the others in the pub ended up in a shootout with scores of policemen.
