Just in time for awards season, and from award-winning writer-director Bart Layton (The Imposter, American Animals), this action-packed crime thriller is bringing out all the stops, headlined by Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and Academy Award winner Halle Berry (Monster’s Ball), as well as a roster of Academy Award-nominees and powerhouses. Not only do we want you to join us for an advanced screening, but we’ll be buckling in for a high-speed chase across the 101 in IMAX — a format so immersive, you can almost smell the luxury cars.

According to the official synopsis, “Set against the sun-bleached grit of Los Angeles, Crime 101 weaves the tale of an elusive thief (Hemsworth) whose high-stakes heists unfolding along the iconic 101 freeway have mystified police. When he eyes the score of a lifetime with hopes of this being his final job, his path collides with a disillusioned insurance broker (Berry) who is facing her own crossroads, forcing the two to collaborate. Determined to crack the case, a relentless detective (Mark Ruffalo) closes in on the operation, raising the stakes even higher. As the multimillion-dollar heist approaches, the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur, and all three are forced to confront the cost of their choices — and the realization that there's no turning back.” Crime 101 also stars Barry Keoghan (The Banshees of Inisherin), Corey Hawkins (The Piano Lesson), Monica Barbaro (A Complete Unknown), Nick Nolte (Affliction), and Jennifer Jason Leigh (The Hateful Eight).
