- THE BUZZ: Liam Neeson is the new Jason Statham since we're having difficulty distinguishing one of his action roles from another these days. This time out, he reunites with his Unknown director Jaume Collet-Serra and takes to the skies over the Atlantic Ocean -- something we don't often see anymore in mainstream movies. We see Julianne Moore aboard the plane and don't imagine she just sits there the entire time, but we're wondering how exactly Oscar nominee Lupita Nyong'o fits into the narrative. Is she playing a baddie? Hope so!
 | Son of God (2014)
The life story of Jesus is told from his humble birth through his teachings, crucifixion and ultimate resurrection. Director:Christopher Spencer |

THE BUZZ: It's easy to see why "Survivor" producer Mark Burnett put this film together in the wake of "The Bible"'s success after Burnett and company received huge ratings and three Emmy nominations for that mini-series. Any by "put together" we mean: the 10-hour mini-series was edited down into a 2-hour film. Once lower profile than Darren Aronofsky's Noah, advanced reports of the religious groups buying out entire theaters for opening weekend have us all wondering what the opening-weekend tally will be.
