Two actors, two faces and a two sided story. I smell an Oscar nod for Gosling…I see audience rejection of the film.
It’s October. A time when Ghoulies, Ghosties and Long-Legged Beasties roam the earth. But if you start seeing the ghost of a World War II Japanese kamikaze fighter pilot, you’re probably Enoch Brae, the central character of Restless. And that’s not a bad place to be. Enoch is an odd kid. If your name is Enoch [...]
“Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots” get their day on the big screen in Real Steel, a movie that transcends the one-joke premise and is instead a heartwarming, fist-pumping mechanized fairy tale of a father and son coming together amid some of the baddest technology you’ll ever wish was really available. Not to bad for a [...]
I was part of the lucky generation of moviegoers that were privy to some of the biggest Disney hits. One of the first movies I remember seeing in the theater was The Little Mermaid, and from that point on I was hooked on Disney movies. Even at 22 years old, I’m still a sucker for [...]

If anyone was worried that Taylor Lautner wouldn’t be able to find work outside of the Twilight movies, they can now rest at ease. 2010 will see Lautner starring in Valentine’s Day, working on Max Steel, and working with Twilight studio Summit Entertainment on Cancun. Summit just recently picked up the action flick, and is [...]
On the last day before closing for the holidays, WME and Industry Entertainment sealed one final deal for the year. Warner Bros. spent nearly $2 million to buy a script by Dan Fogelman, writer of animated pic Cars. The script is said to have a vibe similar to Love Actually, and follows a father trying [...]
Director Bryan Singer is returning to the X-Men franchise to helm the next title in the series, X-Men: First Class. Singer had been considering the project since last summer, and told Daily Variety that he was hesitant to go back to the franchise until he had a storyline that could stand on its own. And [...]
I’ve made the statement before that I think the whole 3D bit is starting to be overdone. However, I have to say that, if any movie would fit 3D well, it’d be Toy Story. Well, when Toy Story 3 opens in June, it won’t just be in regular theaters– it’ll also be opening in Imax [...]
