The story of Adam Hill (Rob Pattison), an ordinary kid who overcomes extraordinary limitations. Despite having so many problems and always wearing short sleeves shirts over long sleeve shirts over short sleeve shirts, Hill wields his dunk arm and, with the help of crotchety Coach Wikowski (Ed Harris), becomes the star of the high school basketball team. Will the pressures of his wayward mother (Drew Barrymore) and her dealer (Seth Rogen) tell – or might this just be the best damn season The Gators have ever had!

Not Mark Yet
Mark Wahlberg, playing himself, plays a broken hearted actor wallowing in a midlife crisis. His relationship with singer Brandi (Jessica Alba) is mutually decadent and they bring out the worst in each other as they spiral into drunken stupors with old friend Alf (Tom Waits). Mark decides to clean up and make a fresh break – but his bid for self discovery takes a surprising turn when a mysterious French visitor (Adam Goldberg) teaches him some surprising home truths. With a new outlook at the possibility of new love, in Jess (Gwyenth Paltrow), things are looking up. He’s not Mark yet, but he’s getting there.

Michael Jack's Son
In this chilling modern re-telling of Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis Michael Jack (Jason Bateman) must come to terms with the mysterious changes in his son Ray (Jaden Smith). It could just be the effects of puberty - but why did Ray's voice break higher rather than lower? What's happening to his skin and hair? And why oh why has he started walking backwards?!? What will Ray see when he finally looks at the man in the mirror?
