This week on BoxOffice we have the following new releases for you to enjoy:
Entourage
Movie star Vincent Chase is back with his hometown entourage - Eric, Turtle and Johnny "Drama" - and back in business with super-agent-turned-studio-head Ari Gold.

Midnight Sun
An adventure story set among the ice fields of Northern Canada. The hero is a young boy, Luke, who defies the dangerous elements of nature to reunite an abandoned polar bear cub with his mother. On this trek Luke is aided by Muktuk, a half Inuit and half Canadian, who knows the terrain where polar bears live like the back of his hand. But they are soon separated on the floating ice of the high Arctic, and Luke and the cub are left to protect themselves from bear attacks, giant icebergs, and vicious windstorms.

Brian, a talented young writer, meets the beautiful, intriguing Arielle over a cigarette outside the Manhattan St. Regis. She’s older than he, married, French, and the mother of two. “You can stop that sentence anywhere along the way,” Brian’s father tells him, “and have reason enough not to be in the relationship.” But neither party can resist the other they begin a cinq-a-sept affair.
