Free Movie Screening Invite for HARDCORE HENRY TONIGHT
by Andi Barnett via NEohioPAL 06 Apr '16

06 Apr '16

You're invited to see the wildest movie of the year, HARDCORE HENRY. To attend a free movie advance screening TONIGHT (4/6) at 8pm at Cinemark Valley View, please go to: http://stxtickets.com/StrongHARDCORE This movie is rated R. Seating is first-come, first-served and not guaranteed, please arrive early. College students, show your valid college ID and get priority seating. Strap in. HARDCORE HENRY is one of the most unflinchingly original wild-rides to hit the big screen in a long time: You remember nothing. Mainly because you've just been brought back from the dead by your wife (Haley Bennett). She tells you that your name is Henry. Five minutes later, you are being shot at, your wife has been kidnapped, and you should probably go get her back. Who's got her? His name's Akan (Danila Kozlovsky); he's a powerful warlord with an army of mercenaries, and a plan for world domination. You're also in an unfamiliar city of Moscow, and everyone wants you dead. Everyone except for a mysterious British fellow called Jimmy (Sharlto Copley). He may be on your side, but you aren't sure. If you can survive the insanity, and solve the mystery, you might just discover your purpose and the truth behind your identity. Good luck, Henry. You're likely going to need it...
