It's intergalactic hilarity in the year 2087 when Eddie Murphy ("Showtime," "Shrek") stars as audacious lunar nightclub owner, Pluto Nash. Nash finds himself in lunar hot water when he refuses to sell his club to the local mob, which is run by a mysterious mastermind who is attempting to take over the Moon. Joining Pluto in the danger and lunacy are Dina Lake (Rosario Dawson -- "Men In Black II," "Josie and the Pussycats"), a beautiful earthling trying to further her singing career; Nash's bodyguard Bruno (Randy Quaid -- "Vegas Vacation," "Independence Day"), who is a robot on the verge of obsolescence; Nash's gun-toting mother (Pam Grier -- "Ghosts of Mars," "Jackie Brown"); and his best friend (Jay Mohr -- "Pay It Forward," "Go"). Also starring Emmy-winner Peter Boyle ("Monster's Ball," TV's "Everybody Loves Raymond"), Joe Pantoliano ("Cats & Dogs," "The Matrix") and Illeana Douglas ("The New Guy," "Ghost World").

Al Pacino's classic portrayal of Frank Serpico established him as one of today's most versatile actors. "Serpico" was based on the true story of a New York policeman who discovers that honesty is not expected to be part of his job. He endures scorn and mistreatment from his fellow cops while attempting to perform his job with integrity. The character of Serpico, combining the best elements of the Establishment and counter-culture, is a tour-de-force for Pacino. The film is a breathtaking suspense story and a fascinating character study as well as a memorable statement about government's inherent flaws.

Robert Blake and Elliott Gould star as two frustrated Los Angeles police officers who take it upon themselves to try and bust a powerful gangster -- explicitly disobeying the orders of their higher-ups. Director Peter Hyams's well-crafted action drama features plenty of chases, fisticuffs and fireworks, and captures the cops' discontent with the politics of their bosses and the rampant corruption in the department.

Based on the real-life story of New York City undercover cop Frank Serpico (an honest man who was grievously wounded for refusing to take part in the corruption forced upon him by his peers), this movie ranks among Al Pacino's greatest film roles. Directed by Sidney Lumet, Serpico is at once an indictment of corrupted authority and a shining testament to one man's effort to reform the New York City Police Department.
