【解析】文章主要介绍了四部影片，上映时间以及主要情节。

1.细节理解题。根据文章第三段Live by Night Release date: January 13,2017，可知2017年1月13日可以看的电影为 Live by Night。

2.细节理解题。根据第一段XXX: The Return of Xander Cage

Starring: Vin Diesel, Ruby Rose, Nina Dobrev, Donnie Yen, Kris Wu

第二段Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons(妖魔) II

Starring: Kris Wu, Kenny Lin, Yao Chen, Jelly Lin可知，Kris Wu 在这两部电影中出演。故选B。

3.推理判断题。根据第二段，第二部影片After a series of adventures where they capture demons, they start to understand one another’s pains and heart, and finally solve their internal conflicts, working together to become the most united demon-killing team.可知，经历一系列的冒险之后，他们相互理解了彼此的痛苦与真心。故选C。

4.细节理解题。根据最后一段a series of funny stories可知，这是喜剧，所以会使得观众大笑。而其他三部剧Xander Cage (Vin Diesel) is left for death after an incident, and then he secretly returns to action for a tough assignment designed for him.

Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons(妖魔) II（working together to become the most united demon-killing team.）Live by Night（a bootlegger and later，a notorious gangster(恶棍).）由此可以看出这三部剧不是喜剧。

【名师点睛】

文章主题和中心思想的阐述往往需要大量细节信息的支持，这些细节对于理解全文内容至关重要，同时也是归纳和概括文章中心思想的基础。命题人往往会要求考生根据不同的要求阅读文章，以获得某些特定的信息，或准确地寻求所需的细节，并对细节进行直接或间接辨认和理解。文章细节的理解可以细化为：（1）一一对应型。答案与题目在表达形式和意义上直接吻合，一一对应，一目了然。属于浅层次的阅读试题，分数比例较少。（2）语言转述型。这是一类间接事实细节题，答案与题目在意义上充分运用了词义之间的转述关系，即正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的另类表达。属于中档难度题，分数比例较大。（3）语意理解型。这是一类深层事实细节理解题，答案与题目之间存在着一定的逻辑联系，这种联系需要建立在事实的基础上通过上、下文来进行判断、分析、归纳和整合，才能得出正确答案。属于较高难度的事实细节题。（4）是非辨别型。这是一类综合事实细节题，出题形式常常是“三正一误”(三项正确，只有一项不符合原文内容)或“三误一正”（三项错误，只有一项符合原文内容)。（5）事实排序型。这是一类运用多项事实进行排序的事实细节题，要求根据动作发生的先后顺序、时间顺序或者句子之间的逻辑关系，找出时间发生、发展的正确顺序。

此题中的第四小题是细节理解题，属于（4）是非辨别型。这是一类综合事实细节题，出题形式常常是“三正一误”(三项正确，只有一项不符合原文内容)或“三误一正”（三项错误，只有一项符合原文内容)。

对于此类题目，要求读者把选项中的每一句话在原文中找到对应的句子，逐一判断。根据最后一段a series of funny stories，可知这是喜剧，故会使观众大笑。而其他三部剧：Xander Cage (Vin Diesel) is left for death after an incident, and then he secretly returns to action for a tough assignment designed for him.中提到了death after an incident显然不是喜剧。Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons(妖魔) II（working together to become the most united demon-killing team.）中提到了Demon， killing 也不可能是喜剧 Live by Night（中提到了a bootlegger and later，a notorious gangster(恶棍).）由此可以看出这三部剧不是喜剧。而A项说参演明星更多，错，因为XXX: The Return of Xander Cage的演员阵容有5人，而The Village of No Return只有4人。B项说是2013续集指的是Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons(妖魔) II，C项说它与其它三部影片不在同一月发行，错误，他们都在一月上映。
