With the weather the way it is this weekend, you may want to celebrate your independence — from the crowds — nice and dry, indoors. And curling up on the La-Z-Boy while it rains outside, popcorn in hand, is the ultimate American luxury. So here are the flicks that you can catch in theaters and at home this July Fourth weekend.

Geoff Morrell (as Spike): “Welcome aboard, welcome aboard. Mount Everest, here we come.”
Liam plays a big rig ice road driver in Nepal who wants to scatter his late brother’s ashes on Mount Everest. Well, bad idea, because he ends up having to fight a group of mercenaries to save himself, fellow passengers and even a local village.
