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 [...]
Apes or humans? You might have to ask yourself where your loyalty lies for this one.
127 Hours is an incredible journey. What would you do if you came face-to-face with death?
Atomic Popcorn had the chance to partner up for a promo screening of 127 HOURS, the new film from director Danny Boyle (“Slumdog Millionaire”) and starring James Franco, and we couldn’t pass on it.

Wacky. Date Night [...]
James Franco, who was in the Spider-Man trilogy and Pineapple Express, is heading right back over to the indie circuit with In Praise of Shadows. The drama written and directed by Jay Anania tells the story of William Vincent (Franco), and recounts his eccentric and curious journey that brought him back to New York City [...]
Milk is the story of Harvey Milk. It’s a film that could have easily been a politicized puff piece dedicated to a so-called Great American Hero. Instead, director Gus Van Sant tells the story of a rather lucky gay guy who, by natural charisma and a borderline unhealthy love of power, begins a wave of [...]
