A TWISTER

The largest storm to hit Oklahoma in more than half a century is brewing, and it promises to drop multiple twisters into Tornado Alley. This is the storm that two rival groups of scientists have been waiting for to earn their place in meteorological history. Jo Harding (Helen Hunt) and her band of university scientists race corporate-sponsored Dr. Joseph Miller (Gary Elwes) through an unforgettable afternoon, night and morning marked by life-threatening exploits.

B MULTIPLICITY

Too many commitments and not enough time is the problem for Doug Kinney (Michael Keaton) in Multiplicity, anew fantasy-comedy from director Harold Ramis. With his work, family, and personal needs all screaming for his attention, Doug becomes the ultimate split personality by having himself cloned, and that's when things really begin to go wrong. Andie MacDowell plays his long suffering wife, who must juggle with more husbands than she can possibly handle.

C COURAGE UNDER FIRE

Denzel Washington is a US Army colonel undertaking the investigation of a candidate for the Medal of Honour. But nothing about his search is routine. The Medivac pilot in question, played by Meg Ryan, is the first woman to be considered for this highest award. The White House and the Pentagon are pushing him to rubber-stamp the approval. As he uncovers the survivors' conflicting stories about Ryan's death in the line of duty, he becomes forced to confront the truth about his own past as a tank commander in the fury of the same Gulf War.

D FLIPPER

In this family adventure, Elijah Wood stars as Sandy Ricks, a typically rebellious 14-year-old city boy, sentenced to spend a summer with his bachelor uncle, Porter (Paul Hogan), an island fisherman. Forced to give up concert tickets and backstage passes to see his favourite band, Sandy is at an all-time low upon arriving at the ramshackle mess that is to be his summer home. The young landlubber and salty seafarer take an immediate dislike to one another. All that changes once Sandy meets up with a feisty orphaned dolphin named Flipper.

E EDDIE

This high-spirited comedy stars Whoopi Goldberg as "Eddie" Newton, a die - hard New York Knicks fan who offers a running monologue of advice for the team's coach from her seat in the rafters. When a promotion-minded eccentric takes over the losing NBA franchise, he overhears some of her advice, agrees with it, fires the coach and hires Eddie to take his place. No one takes her seriously as a coach until she decides to get tough with her handful of seven foot-tall millionaires, and begins to win some games.

F DRAGON HEART

Long ago, when majestic, legendary fire-breathers soared through the skies, there lived a knight who came face-to-face, heart-to heart, with the most remarkable creature that ever was. Dennis Quaid stars as Bowen, with Draco the Dragon (the voice of Sean Connery) in this story about a man of honour and a creature of legend. When his pupil, Prince Einon, becomes an even crueller king than his father, Bowen vows to destroy him. On his quest for revenge, he meets Draco. The life-or-death struggle between the two rocks the kingdom until it exacts the highest price of all.
