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 think it’s safe to say that as far as aesthetics go, director Joe Carnahan isn’t straying too far away from the source material when it comes to his remake of The A-Team. On the right, you’ll find the first photograph of the new A-Team van, which looks pretty much identical to the original from [...]
Chalk this one up as a huge rumor until we inevitably hear an update about it within the next few days. Sharlto Copley, rising to fame like a shooting star from his role as Wikus Van Der Merwe in District 9, may be playing Captain Howling Mad Murdock in Joe Carnahan’s A-Team update. This news [...]
The A-Team was seriously before my time. In fact, I’ve never even caught an episode of the show in reruns, and that says something because I watched a lot of TV as a child. So it consistently astounds me that the new film update of The A-Team keeps pushing forward — apparently a big fan [...]
Sandra Bullock’s latest film All About Steve is a tribute to stalkers everywhere. If you just hang in there long enough, you’ll eventually wear down the one you’re pursuing to the point where they see your charm. Yikes. That doesn’t make sense at all as I write it. Neither did the movie. Actually, I laughed [...]
Marc Guggenheim recently told SCI FI Wire that he has completed the first draft for the movie adaptation of everyone’s favorite ring-slinger, Green Lantern. “In fact, I’m … delivering another draft today,” Guggenheim said on Friday. “So it continues to move forward.” Looking for a Silver Age feel, the film will revolve around Earth’s emerald [...]
The Hangover’s Bradley Cooper is in negotiations to play Lt. Templeton ‘Faceman’ Peck in Joe Carnahan’s big-screen adaptation of The A-Team. What, that’s not enough? How about Liam Neeson (who is quite the master of bad-assery in Taken) playing John ‘Hannibal’ Smith? Based on the ’80s TV favorite, the film will keep the basic premise [...]
The Hangover falls victim to having it’s best laughs in the trailer, something most comedies walk right into. Todd Phillips’ new film also lets a few gags run on too long and it features subplots that are unnecessary. Yet with all of this, it’s hard not to laugh at it when it hits the right [...]
My cheeks hurt, seriously, they are hurting me from laughing so hard through Todd Philips’ The Hangover. The Hangover is now atop my list of favorite comedies in the last I don’t know how many years. Old School has it’s spot, Out Cold has been watched over and over, Superbad was funny but in a [...]
