Born on the Fourth of July -- The biography of Ron Kovic. Paralyzed in the Vietnam war, he becomes an anti-war and pro-human rights political activist after feeling betrayed by the country he fought for.

Tom Cruise delivers a riveting and unforgettable portrayal of Vietnam veteran Ron Kovic in Oliver Stone's Academy Award®-winning masterpiece. Based on a true story, the acclaimed film follows the young Kovic from a zealous teen who eagerly volunteers for the Vietnam War, to an embittered veteran paralyzed from the mid-chest down. Deeply in love with his country, Kovic returned to an environment vastly different from the one he left, and struggled before emerging as a brave new voice for the disenchanted.

Famed Tae Bo instructor Billy Blanks stars in this explosive action thriller as Niko, a martial arts teacher dedicated to helping inner-city kids. When he turns down an offer from murderous drug lord Hastishita (Dennis Akayama), Niko's life is wrenched apart. After one of Hastishita's thugs, Takamura (James Lew), shoots his favorite student, Niko seeks to destroy the organization from the inside by agreeing to fight in a rigged bout to the death.
