All New People
If you’re a person whose watched Garden State 1500 times and loved Zach Braff on Scrubs, then you’re not going to want to miss his latest project. All New People is play written by Braff that will be showing at the Zoetic stage at the Adrienne Arsht Center from January 10 to January 27th. It’s a play about 4 people (a severely depressed man, a woman in need of a green card, a fireman/drug dealer and a call girl) who form unexpected friendships when one of them gets fed up with life and decides to commit suicide. It’s fun for the whole family but for the sake of not being on the wrong side of child services, attendees should be at least 18 and older.

Film
Mama- Guillermo Del Toro presents this horror flick about two children who lived alone in the wilderness…or so everyone thinks. Their aunt and uncle take them in and unbeknownst to them, someone else the children call Mama. This film stars recent Golden Globe winner, Jessica Chastain.
The Last Stand – Arrnold is bach! The Governator teams up with Jackass star, Johnny Knoxville to take down a drug cartel headed for the Mexican border. Expect a lot of violence, the kind that we’ve all come to expect from an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie.
Broken City – Another testosterone-filled movie about powerful men going head to head against each other. Mark Wahlberg plays an ex-cop who is framed by the mayor played by Russell Crowe. Ah yeah, bring the pain.
