Only here can you see the final chapter of the RECESS series. Everyone’s favorite fourth graders have graduated! It’s an all-new school year for the kids — and the gang hits the fifth grade running! But they’re stopped in their tracks when they discover some unwelcome changes — no pizza, no playground . . . no lockers! And to make things worse, their teacher turns out to be the cantankerous Miss Finster! It’s all too much for TJ, who is determined to find a way to stand up for what the gang believes in and improve the school they love! The fifth grade brings out the best in everyone … even Miss Finster and Principal Prickly! Full of excitement, surprises, and loads of laughs, you’ll discover TAKING THE FIFTH GRADE proves that working together is a great way to learn about friendship, cooperation, and most of all, fun!

Times may change…but these guys don’t! Eddie Murphy (Shrek, Dr. Doolittle) and Nick Nolte (Hotel Rwanda, Cape Fear) are back on the streets in this smash sequel. Ex-con Reggie Hammond (Murphy) has just been released from prison, and he’s having his worst day ever…he’s got no money, his beloved Porsche was blown to bits and someone wants him dead. Hard-nosed cop Jack Cates (Nolte) isn’t having any better luck…he’s accused of manslaughter in a drug bust gone wrong, and may lose his badge. Fate has pushed these unlikely partners back together…one to fight for his job, and the other for his life. It’s another car-chasing, fist-flying, shoot-’em-up 48 hours in the city streets of San Francisco. And once again, Murphy and Nolte are in rare form as they team up to take the bad guys down!
