Directed by Steven Spielberg, War Horse (12A) is based on the book by Michael Morpurgo and follows a young man named Albert and his horse, Joey.

Their bond is broken when Joey is sold to the cavalry and sent to the battlefields of the First World War.

Despite being too young to enlist, Albert heads to France to save his friend.

Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol (12A) also opens at Wells Film Centre this week.

In the fourth installment of the Mission Impossible series, Ethan Hunt and his team are racing against time to track down a dangerous terrorist named Hendricks, who has gained access to Russian nuclear launch codes and is planning a strike on the United States.

An attempt by the team to stop him at the Kremlin ends in a disaster, with an explosion causing severe destruction to the Kremlin and the IMF being implicated in the bombing, forcing the president to invoke Ghost Protocol, under which the IMF is disavowed, and will be offered no help or backup in any form.

Undaunted, Ethan and his team chase Hendricks to Dubai, and from there to Mumbai, but several spectacular action sequences later, they might still be too late to stop a disaster.

At Strode Theatre in Street, tonight at 5pm and 7.30pm, you can see the delightful French comedy Romantics Anonymous (12A).

On advice from her friends to gain some self confidence, painfully shy chocolate maker Angelique takes a job in a chocolate factory, not realising that she has been hired as a sales rep, rather than an in-house worker.

Terrified of the prospect of having to talk to strangers, but too timid to tell anyone about the mistake, she proceeds to make a right hash of her new job.

Her boss Jean-Rene's gruff and abrupt attitude doesn't help either.

What his employees don't realise is that he is just as insecure as Angelique. In an ill-conceived attempt at curing his social awkwardness, he invites her out for dinner.

Social maladjustment at its most destructive is the bane of the characters in the British drama Tyrannosaur (18), showing at Strode Theatre on Wednesday at 7.30pm.

In actor Paddy Considine's gritty, tough directing debut, Peter Mullan plays unemployed Joseph, a violently angry hard man who is introduced killing his own dog in a fit of rage.

Ducking into a charity shop one day, he becomes the "project" for Hannah (Olivia Colman), a volunteer and herself, the victim of her control-freak husband's sadistic outbursts.

After a showing of the film, there is a question and answer session with Dan Winch, assistant director on the film.

Tickets are £7.50 each, £6.50 concessions. Film starts at 7.30pm.
