Striking Distance: Tom Hardy (Bruce Willis) is a fifth generation Pittsburgh cop. Formerly a homicide detective, he publicly challenged the police department, including several of his family members, about the identity of the serial killer who took his father's life. Convinced that a newly active serial killer is the same gunman who murdered his father - despite the fact that another man is already behind bars for that crime - Hardy is working out of his jurisdiction to catch the killer. The maverick cop finds himself at odds with his new partner (Sarah Jessica Parker) as he skirts around the system and defies his uncle (Dennis Farina), his father's successor as the Chief of Homicide. A high-powered, suspenseful drama with mind-blowing action, Striking Distance is Bruce at his wisecracking best.

Mercury Rising: Art Jeffries (Bruce Willis), a renegade FBI Agent, combats ruthless Federal agents to protect Simon, a nine-year old autistic boy who has cracked the government's new "unbreakable" code. He can read Mercury, the most advanced encryption code, as easily as other kids read English. This ability renders the new billion dollar secret code vulnerable, especially if enemies of the United States should learn of Simons's abilities and capture him. Program Chief Nick Kudrow (Alec Baldwin) orders the "security threat" eliminated, but Kudrow hasn't counted on Jeffries getting involved. As deadly assassins trail them, Jeffries quickly realises that no one can be trusted. Now time is running out and he discovers his only hope of survival is using Simon's special ability to bring their adversaries to justice.
