Bad Blake (Jeff Bridges) is a drunken old country music singer scraping a living in backwater bowling alleys and third-rate piano bars. His fleeting fame behind him, the best Bad can hope for is to open a big concert for his former protege, Tommy Sweet (Colin Farrell), who - unlike his mentor - managed to become rich and famous. One gig blurs into the next until one night in Santa Fe, Bad falls for local journalist Jean Craddock (Maggie Gyllenhaal), a single mother with a few regrets of her own. In his attempt to find salvation with Jean, Bad is forced to face his demons and confront a life of regrets. As he pours his private sorrow into the best songs he's ever written, Bad learns the hard way just how tough life can be on one man's crazy heart.

Young Percy discovers his destiny is to prevent an epic war between the ancient Gods.
Percy Jackson (Logan Lerman) is a kid whose only talent is an ability to stay under water for astonishingly long periods of time. At school, his teacher (Pierce Brosnan) lectures on the 12 Olympian Gods of Ancient Greece - especially the 'big three', the brothers Zeus, Poseidon and Hades, whose children were half-human and half-god. After another teacher transforms into a winged demon and attacks him, Percy is sent to the mythical 600th floor of the Empire State Building, where he finds that the Gods of Mount Olympus are real, and they've been expecting him. Discovering that his father is Poseidon (Kevin McKidd), the God of the Sea, Percy begins to adapt to his new life, but when the lightning bolt of Zeus (Sean Bean) is stolen, a terrible war between the Gods is threatened - and Percy and his friends have to prevent it.
