Staying in tonight?

Because if you are, you're gonna need to watch a movie. Either that or watch The Late Late Show. We know you'll be doing one of the two... Here's what we're dealing with on the movie front. Den of Thieves - 9pm - Virgin Media One An action-packed crime drama about police trying to stop a criminal gang from stealing 120 million dollars from the Federal Reserve Bank. A bit meh. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - 9pm - E4 Who doesn't love a superhero movie of a Friday night? Selma - 10pm - RTÉ2  The story of Martin Luther King Junior and a particularly crucial three-month period in his extraordinary life. Directed by the magnificent Ava DuVernay, who made When They See Us and 13th. The Lone Ranger - 10.45pm - BBC One A lawyer (Armie Hammer) is left for dead after an ambush in which his Texas ranger brother is killed, but is saved by a mysterious Native American fugitive (Johnny Depp). Also stars the brilliant Helena Bonham-Carter. The Irish Pub - 10.55pm - TG4 A celebration of Irish public houses and the people who run them. Because there isn't enough talk about pubs these days... Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa - 11.15pm - TCM A hidden camera comedy film that is not suitable for kids. Not AT ALL. The Drop - Channel4 - 12.05am A very decent movie starring Tom Hardy, Noomi Rapace and James Gandolfini in his final film role. Well worth a watch if you're staying up late tonight.
