Ghostbusters – releasing Friday 29 July 2016
This supernatural comedy reboot directed by Paul Feig tells the story of four women who start a ghost-catching business in New York City.

Hilarity ensues and the pair, along with two other unlikely partners embark on a paranormal investigation.
Bad Moms – releasing 19 August 2016
Starring Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, Christina Applegate, Kathryn Hahn, and Jada Pinkett Smith this new comedy from the writers of The Hangover, is every mom’s dream come true. Amy (Kunis) has a seemingly perfect life – a great marriage, over-achieving kids, beautiful home and a career. But, she’s over-worked, over-committed and exhausted to the point that she’s about to snap. Fed up, she joins forces with two other over-stressed moms on a quest to liberate themselves from conventional ‘perfect mom’ responsibilities – going on a wild, binge of long overdue freedom, fun and self-indulgence – putting them on a collision course with PTA Queen Bee Gwendolyn and her clique of devoted perfect moms. Bottom line, this movie looks all kinds of hilarious and is the perfect movie to catch with your favourite ladies!
Absolutely Fabulous – releasing 7 October, 2016
Fans of the original Absolutely Fabulous series will love this big screen version of the British comedy. Edina Monsoon and Patsy Stone (Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley) are still oozing glitz and glamour, living the high life they are accustomed to; shopping, drinking and clubbing their way around London’s trendiest hotspots. But when they accidentally push Kate Moss into the river Thames at an uber fashionable launch party, Eddy and Patsy become entangled in a media storm surrounding the supermodel’s untimely demise and are relentlessly pursued by the paparazzi. Fleeing penniless to the glamorous playground of the super-rich, the French Riviera, they hatch a plan to make their escape permanent and live the high life forever more.
