New Movie Releases — ‘The Darkest Hour’ and ‘War Horse’

Movie studios inundated us with releases last week, which meant some were bound to get lost in the shuffle — especially the two that bowed on Christmas Day. Let’s take another look at them, shall we?

‘The Darkest Hour‘ is the story of five people who find themselves stranded in Moscow, fighting to survive in the wake of a devastating alien attack.

And Steven Spielberg — who directed another of last week’s releases, ‘The Adventures of Tintin’ — adds to his lengthy resume with ‘War Horse,’ an epic tale about the remarkable friendship between a horse and the young man who tames and trains him during World War I.
