With some scenes filmed at Wells Cathedral and Cheddar Gorge Jack The Giant Slayer 2D and 3D (12A) tells the story of an ancient war.

Opening at Wells Film Centre this week the war is restarted when a young farmhand unwittingly opens a gateway between our world and a fearsome race of giants.

Unleashed on the Earth for the first time in centuries, the giants strive to reclaim the land they once lost, forcing a young man, Jack (Nicholas Hoult) into the battle of his life to stop them.

Fighting for a kingdom, its people, and the love of a brave princess, he comes face to face with the unstoppable warriors he thought only existed in legend – and gets the chance to become a legend himself.

The Croods 2D and 3D (U) is a prehistoric comedy adventure that follows the world's first family as they embark on a journey of a lifetime.

The film is opening at Wells this week and tells the story of what happens when the cave that has always shielded them from danger is destroyed.

Travelling across a spectacular landscape, the Croods discover an incredible new world filled with fantastic creatures – and their outlook is changed forever.

Finally for new films at Wells this week is To The Wonder (12A).

After visiting Mont Saint-Michel, Marina and Neil come to Oklahoma, where problems arise.

Marina meets a priest and fellow exile, who is struggling with his vocation, while Neil renews his ties with a childhood friend, Jane.

At Strode Theatre, in Street, Hyde Park On Hudson (12A) is showing on Monday at 5pm and 7.30pm and Tuesday at 7.30pm.

In June 1939, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Bill Murray) and his wife Eleanor (Olivia Williams) host the King and Queen of England (Samuel West and Olivia Colman) for a weekend at the Roosevelt home at Hyde Park on Hudson, in upstate New York – the first-ever visit of a reigning English monarch to America.

With Britain facing imminent war with Germany, the Royals are desperately looking to FDR for support.

But international affairs must be juggled with the complexities of FDR's domestic establishment, as wife, mother, and mistresses all conspire to make the royal weekend an unforgettable one.
