Q4 of 2009 promises to be an eventful time for you film lovers out there.  Bestflick.com now previews  the new Bruce Willis movie Surrogates, action flick Ninja Assassin, and new animated feature Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs.

With all the major film offerings that came out in Q3, all the major film distributors are hoping that the momentum will carry over to the last quarter of this year. Bestflick.com now brings you previews of new films that should at least make interesting viewing for everybody. This is the first of our 2-part preview post for Q4.

Surrogates starring Bruce Willis

First up is a new Bruce Willis film (yes, he’s still alive), and a sci-fi film, at that. The film is dubbed Surrogates. Set in a future environment where a technological breakthrough allows people to purchase cyborg copies of themselves – surrogates (hence the title) that allow them to have perfect little copies of themselves live out their outside lives for them. A film in the mold of sci-fi thrillers iRobot and Minority Report, the evergreen Bruce Willis plays an FBI detective tasked to investigate the murder of a student highly involved in the surrogate-making technology. The investigation leads Willis’ character through dilemmas regarding truth and trust, because really, when everybody around you isn’t “real” what do you do?

Surrogates Official Movie Trailer

Surrogates also stars Radha Mitchell, Rosamund Pike, Ving Rhames, and directed by Jonathan Mostow for Touchstone Pictures/Disney. The film hits the theaters September 25.

Ninja Assassin starring Rain

For your “whoah-what-the-heck-was-that?!?” visual effects fix, Ninja Assassin should do the job just fine. Rain, or Jeong Ji-Hoon if you really want to be accurate, stars in this martial arts flick that promises to be packed with action sequences and fight scenes that would bring any gamer or visual effects geek to gamer heaven. Rain is one of South Korea’s more successful imports, and has already starred with Ewan McGregor in Speed Racer. The plotline for this movie is pretty basic – with a title like that, you couldn’t really guess wrong. Rain stars as Raizo, an assassin (you probably guessed right), who breaks free from his uber-secret organization and exacts revenge on them for killing his best friend. Sounds familiar? Don’t worry, watching the trailer would make you disregard the title and plotline and make you want to watch this just for the awesome-ness of the fight scenes. And yes, never mind the parts of the trailer pointing to 300, the similarities end there. See for yourself.

Ninja Assassins Official Movie Trailer

Ninja Assassin is set to be released on November 25, under Warner Bros., and is directed by V for Vendetta director James McTeigue.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, new animated feature

Next up is an animated feature from Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation sure to satisfy your, errr… palates (?) – Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. This is an adaptation from the well-loved children’s book of the same title written by Judi Barrett.

The book tells of the town of Chewandswallow (chew and swallow, get it?), where the weather comes 3 times a day – breakfast, lunch, and dinner – and is always in the form of food and beverages. The precipitation is juice and soup, the snow is mashed potatoes, and the wind brings hamburgers, and… you get the idea. However, floods and storms do come – creating food-induced problems of a different kind – the school getting smothered beneath a giant pancake, or a tomato sauce tornado, and giant meatballs crushing the town. Fun, eh?

Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs Movie Trailer

The movie itself tries to tell the origin of Chewandswallow’s food problems (not the lack of it, unfortunately). Bill Hader (of Saturday Night Live fame) and Anna Faris voice the two lead characters – inventor Flint Lockwood, and weathergirl Sam Sparks. Also in the movie are James Caan who plays Flint’s father, and Mr. T (yes, the Mr. T) who plays a town cop. The movie is scheduled to bring home the bacon (sorry, couldn’t help it) on September 18, and is directed by Shrek 3 director Chris Miller.

Excited already? You should be! Watch out for the second part of our Q4 preview post here on Bestflick.com!
