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 [...]
My first question going into this film was; Does anyone rent videotapes anymore? Do kids these days even know what they are? Alright, that was two questions. And for the movie to work you really have to suspend that disbelief. Let me back up, there is some more disbelief you will need to be [...]
I’ll be the first to admit that I have not been a big proponent of a new Indiana Jones movie. I think “Last Crusade” is just a rehash of the far superior “Raiders”, and I really didn’t want to have my wonderful memories of my favorite movie hero to be tarnished by seeing him as [...]
28 Days Later x Mad Max (Escape From New York) + Lara Croft = Doomsday Sound cool? Hell yeah it does. Neil Marshall is one of those directors that I will watch anything he does just because he did it (there are only a few of those). Every since a buddy lent me a copy [...]
I can’t tell you how much I truly, truly hate writing this story. According to CNN Heath Ledger was found dead in his Manhattan Apartment today. Ledger’s housekeeper found him dead in his Manhattan apartment, New York police said. He died at 3:26 p.m., they said. The New York Fire Department received a call at [...]
Sundance Film Festival is going on right now. For those of you that don’t know, one of the main points of the Festival is for independent film makers to get their films in there, show them to distributors and (hopefully) have distributors purchase the rights to – duh, distribute them. Word is no one is [...]
Well, it’s finally here kiddies. Months of anticipation, meted out through a now infamous viral campaign, and what do we have to show for it? A big fucking monster movie. That’s pretty much exactly what I wanted. Were all of our questions answered? No. Like, what the bleeding hell is Slusho, and why should I [...]
Alright ladies (and some of you guys) time to brace yourselves and pretend you’re not melting in your seat. Variety is reporting that Christian Bale is in negotiations to star opposite Johnny Depp in Michal Mann (Heat) helmed “Public Enemies”. Johnny is already signed to play the infamous bank robber John Dillinger, and Christian Bale [...]
The folks at /Film have gotten their paws on some production notes for Cloverfield wherein we gets us some more clues about the Big Bad Baby in Cloverfield. Really, it’s a baby. JJ says so himself. And the movie is a love story. A fucking love story? Please. Reeves also skillfully interweaves an important storyline [...]
