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 [...]
Although both based on a true story and overtly political, Fair Game deftly avoids the problems closely associated with both of those genres and proves to be a well-acting, expertly-directed, engaging political thriller.
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 [...]
When was the last time that we were given a really good sketch-comedy film, packed with big names and famous faces each taking just a few minutes to put us in hysterics and then pass the screen to the next wacky cameo? Remember The Kentucky Fried Movie, the 1977 masterpiece of tastelessness that shocked audiences [...]
The last time we talked about Woody it was the news of Owen Wilson’s joining Woody’s next project. Since then the yet-untitled project has picked up a pair of beautiful Hollywood starlets in Academy Award winner Marion Cotillard (La vie en rose) and Rachel McAdams (probably won a Teen Choice Award for something). Filming on [...]
Continuing the relationship developed while working on Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Woody Allen’s next film will be produced by Spanish production company Mediapro, with Spanish broadcaster Antena 3 serving to co-produce. The new movie, entitled You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, follows the love lives of the various members of a family, and the efforts [...]
The International is a movie that looked very promising but in the end fell flat. Clive Owen plays Interpol Agent Louis Salinger, a man who has been tracking the wrong-doings of the IBBC (International Big Bank Conglomerate – not really, but I can’t remember what “IBBC” stood for so I’m substituting). The IBBC is trying [...]
The first five minutes clip of The International which stars Clive Owen and Naomi Watts is now online, and pretty intense. The plot centers on an obsessive Interpol agent (Owen) who spearheads an investigation into one of the world’s most high-profile and powerful banking institutions in an attempt to expose them for worldwide arms brokering, [...]
