Ghosts in the Machine
Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) and his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) have the leading scientific voice in the world of Artificial Intelligence (or A.I.) in Transcendence, but a global group of anti-technology terrorists (including Kate Mara)
see Caster's dreams as a threat to humanity. When a terrorist attack
leaves him with only weeks to live. Though his best friend (Paul Bettany)
is opposed to the idea, Evelyn uses Will's technology to "upload" him:
putting his consciousness into a computer, allowing him to live on.
Evelyn is simply happy to have Will-- or at least his mind-- alive, the
rest of the world wonders if the new self-aware computer is actually Dr.
Caster, or just an ambitious A.I. that quickly infiltrates online
computer systems, creates powerful nanobots, and develops an army of
networked, advanced meta-humans. Will-As-Computer inists he's going to
save the world, but salvation could come at the expense of humanity.

Based on the family's best-selling memoir, the Burpo family faces challenges from their community and their parish (led by Margo Martindale) who doubt Colton's story as the world around them struggles with doubt in the light of a boy's story about a light-eyed Jesus on a multi-colored horse.

a lot to answer for, and Maddy's revenge plot just became violent and
gained several allies.

In Pursuit

parents (the event that turned him into an isolated, homeless, nonverbal
wreck) is being released from prison, and he sets out to take his

Safe-cracker Dom (Jude Law) did his time and kept his mouth shut in Dom Hemingway, and now that he's out, he's eager to delve into as much drugs, bad behavior, and women as he can. Because he did his time and didn't turn on crime boss Mr. Fontaine (Demian Bichir), cocky and arrogant Dom and his old partner (Richard E. Grant) feel entitled to some privileged treatment. Dom intends to use his position and freedom to reconnect with his daughter (Emilia Clarke), but violent criminal loudmouths like Dom always manage to lose what they have and go back for another "one last job."

inoperable brain aneurysm. Insulting and berating his doctor (Mila Kunis),
Henry demands to know how much time he has left and, frustrated and
angry, she makes up a number: 90 minutes. Henry tears through New York
hoping to use his remaining time to be intimate with his wife (Melissa Leo) and reconnect with his son, but all of his efforts lead to more explosive rants, while his doctor recruits Henry's brother (Peter Dinklage) and tries to find him, possibly saving his life and her career.
