Event highlights of the week

What to watch
Alexander and the terrible,
horrible, no good, very bad day
This family film follows
the exploits of 11-year-old
Alexander (Ed Oxenbould)
as he experiences the most
terrible and horrible day of his
young life-a day that begins
with gum stuck in his hair,
followed by one calamity after
another.
