Here’s a look at what movies are playing this month in movie theaters around the Qcity:
Almost Christmas
Another Will Packer production in time for the holidays, “Almost Christmas” tells the story of a dysfunctional family gathering for their first big holiday since the matriarch’s passing. If they can spend five days under the same roof without killing one another, it will be a Christmas miracle. The all-star cast of Almost Christmas is led by Kimberly Elise, Danny Glover, John Michael Higgins, Romany Malco, Mo’Nique, JB Smoove, Gabrielle Union, Omar Epps, Nicole Ari Parker, Jessie T. Usher and DC Young Fly. (Now playing)

Trolls

Doctor Strange
Based on the Marvel Comics’ superhero of the same name, “Doctor Strange” stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Rachel McAdams and Mads Mikkelsen.

The Take
Michael Mason (Richard Madden) is an American pickpocket living in Paris who finds himself being hunted by the CIA after a stolen bag leaves four people dead.
