October. It's the time of year when the leaves are changing color, election season is heating up, and the Cubs are doing whatever they can to avoid a World Series title. (Well, maybe not this year.) October also marks the return of serious movies to the cineplex as the first batch of this year's awards contenders are unveiled.

Narrated by Brad Pitt, the IMAX release offers a series of stunning visuals that THR’s Deborah Young claims will “set the benchmark for history-of-the-universe films in the years to come.”
