Answer: Eastern Promises

"Eastern Promises" was an extremely violent movie, directed by David Cronenberg. Viggo Mortensen played the part of Nikolai, who was the driver and "cleaner" for Semyon and his son Kirill.

Answer: The Unsaid

Andy Garcia starred as the father and therapist who eventually discovered that the reason his son committed suicide, was because he was being sexually abused by his tutor. The tutor was a personal friend of the therapist, which was the ultimate betrayal.
The boy with the troubled past, whom he was treating, had seen his mother being beaten to death by his father. The boy's father had come home early one day to find half empty wine glasses. His wife appeared in her negligee and he thought that he was going to catch her with another man, but it was his eight year old son.

Answer: Kingdom of Heaven

"Kingdom of Heaven" was directed by Tony Scott and was an authentic look into the past. Orlando Bloom played the part of Balian, who was a blacksmith. He was approached by Godfrey of Ibelin, who told him that he was his father.

"Walking Tall" starred The Rock or Dwayne Johnson. It was action packed as the big man took on the sheriff and the casino.

7. A general wanted to go home but his duties to his emperor wouldn't let that happen. His emperor was murdered and soon after his wife and child were brutally slain. He was eventually sold into slavery and became the hero of the masses. The movie was "Spartacus".

Answer: False

"Gladiator" was the movie and Russell Crowe played the part of Maximus Decimus Meridias. Emperor Marcus Aurelius was murdered by his twisted, jealous son Commodus. It was Commodus who gave the orders for the death of Maximus' wife and son. Maximus won the crowd in the Colisseum and turned the tables on Commodus but Commodus, who was evil to the core, injured Maximus before they were to have their inevitable duel. Maximus died but it was what he wanted, to again be with his wife and son.
8. A Harlem hood died and his driver decided to carry on his drug business but cut out the middle man. He eventually became the king of the drug world in New York City in the seventies. Name the movie.

Answer: American Gangster

"American Gangster" was based on the true story of an exceptionally successful drug dealer in the early seventie's. Denzel Washington played the part of Frank Lucas and the movie was directed by the great Ridley Scott. Frank had cornered the market on drugs in the neighbourhood, but kept a very low profile.

His only nemesis was an honest cop, called Richie Roberts, played by Russell Crowe. The cop was determined to bring him in but didn't know what he looked like. Frank had always had a code of dressing down and being inconspicuous but forfeited this code for his wife on the night of the Mohammed Ali versus Joe Frazier fight.

He wore an extremely loud fur coat and hat, Roberts spotted him and the game was over.
9. A boy of fifteen was taken away from his parents. He and the other men who joined him became knights and they served their time with the Romans for another fifteen years. They were asked to carry out one final order but all they wanted to do was go home. Name the movie.

Answer: King Arthur

"King Arthur", played by Clive Owen, was directed by the brilliant Antoine Fuqua. After Arthur and his cavalry were given this one last mission, they were promised their release papers. There followed a brutal battle with the Saxons and an impressively shot piece, where the Saxons were on one side of a frozen river and the Sarmation Knights were on the other. One of King Arthur's men broke the ice with his axe and lots of Saxons disappeared under the ice.

The final battle was incredible when Merlin, his Woads and, of course, Guinivere joined in the fray.
10. A detective was a spectator at the execution of a serial killer. The killer had already spoken in tongues and had cursed the audience. He started to sing a song and well after his death, lots of people around the detective started to sing the same song. Name the movie.

Answer: Fallen

Detective John Hobbes was played by Denzel Washington. When more killings started up again, in the same style of the serial killer, Hobbes began to realise that there was something afoot. The serial killer had been taken over by the presence of a cursed fallen angel, called Azazel.

This evil spirit could jump from person to person and Hobbes realised he was going to have to take drastic action to rid himself of this nightmare.
