Movie Review: The Ides Of March
Two actors, two faces and a two sided story. I smell an Oscar nod for Gosling…I see audience rejection of the film.
Movie Review — Restless
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 [...]
Movie Review — Real Steel
“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 [...]
Check out these wonderful minimalistic movie posters designed by Grischa Stanjek (Atomic Popcorn reader) who so graciously shared this personal project with us and now we’re sharing it with all of you! The goal Grischa set for this project was to “reduce each movie to one single object” and I’d say Grischa achieved that goal with [...]
John Amiel’s Creation is a curious beast indeed; a film about a great thinker struggling with dilemmas of faith and belief that ultimately strands itself by failing to properly observe its subject. The life of Charles Darwin definitely has filmmaking potential, and personally I might have preferred to see a picture that followed his travels [...]
Creation, the Charles Darwin biopic starring A Beautiful Mind stars Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly, has been in release limbo for a while due to the fact that no distributor — for whatever reason — wanted to touch it. Directed by The Core helmer Jon Amiel, Creation stars Bettany and Connelly as Darwin and wife [...]
How does one begin to approach a film they wanted to like? Before viewing 9, the film had a lot of things in its favor, the first being absolutely stunning visuals. That looked to be aided by a strong, possibly original premise about a stitchpunk (my gamer side tells me to stick to “Sackboy”) being [...]
Still being active with boosting up Shane Acker’s 9, an upcoming film from Focus Features starring the voice talents of Elijah Wood, Jennifer Connelly, Chrisopher Plummer among many others, here is another contest for you to go after! A few weeks back, the Scientist was forcibly removed from his laboratory and interrogated. Upon returning to his [...]
While we wait for the release of Shane Acker’s post-apocalyptic animated tale of sentient rag dolls in 9, we could do any number of activities. We could try and cut our grocery bill. We could wash the car and cash in the sticky loose change or we could just ogle the new one-sheet poster. 9 [...]
Even though to some people this might not be a suitable Under the Radar, there are still a fair amount of people (even among my peers) who have no idea what it is when someone mentions Shane Acker’s 9. Being pumped up by Focus Features, 9 is a cgi animated movie that seems, to this [...]
