‘SABOTAGE’: EXCLUSIVE CANBERRA PREMIERE SCREENING
.................................................................
We’re proud to announce that our screening of SABOTAGE next week on July 5 will be the film’s exclusive Canberra premiere -- and one of only a few theatrical screenings of the film in the country!
The film was due to be released in Australian cinemas in May this year, but was unexpectedly pulled at the last minute. Fortunately for us, lucky Film Group members still get to catch the explosive crime thriller in all its glory on the big screen.
SABOTAGE stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sam Worthington and Terence Howard as members of an elite DEA task force who find themselves mysteriously being taken down one by one following a drug cartel bust. An action-packed take on Agatha Christie’s “And Then There Were None”, the film is the latest from director David Ayer, who brought us the gritty cop drama END OF WATCH last year.
SABOTAGE screens on Saturday 5 July at 7 PM, followed by Liam Neeson’s in-flight action flick NON-STOP at approx. 9 PM.
