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 [...]
After his enormous success with last year’s “Up in the Air” screenwriter Sheldon Turner is moving into the director’s chair for “By Virtue Fall.”
Think of it as The Bourne Locker. Greengrass and Damon bring us The Green Zone, a frenzied, fast-paced war thriller that races through the turbulent streets of Baghdad looking for elusive WMDs.
Here it is at last! The 2010 Academy Awards! Who’s bringing home the Oscars? James Cameron or Kathryn Bigelow, or will Tarantino stage an upset? Will The Dude Lebowski have a best actor win under his belt? The stars are crossing the Red Carpet right now and in a few hours Alec Baldwin and Steve [...]
Here are the 2010 Best Film Nominees of the British Academy of Film & Television Arts as seen through the eyes of graphic designer Tavis Coburn. Coburn’s website describes his style as “inspired by 1940s comic book art, the Russian avant-garde movement, and printed materials of the 1950s/60s.” I say thank you and may I [...]
It’s that time again. Puxatawney Phil has seen his shadow, Lost is back on the air, and the Oscar nominations have been announced. And, to be honest, there are very few surprises here. Granted, I’m a little late in breaking the news here, but if anything, this list proves there was no news to break. [...]
The winners for the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards are below. I am not going into any detail because you all don’t care! Some of the bigger winners were James Cameron, Sandra Bullock, Robert Downey Jr., Jeff Bridges, and Jason Reitman. Here are the results of the categories we all care about – winner is [...]
Acclaimed director Kathryn Bigelow will be reuniting with Mark Boal for the upcoming action-adventure flick Triple Frontier. The team that brought this summer’s critical darling, The Hurt Locker, will focus on a story that is described as a “high-stakes ensemble project.” Though details are scarce, the film takes place in the border region of Paraguay, [...]
Three viewings in, and I still believe The Hurt Locker is the best film of the year, and maybe last year too. Kathryn Bigelow has crafted a film that is perfectly paced, acted, directed, and features the action scene to beat this year. It’s the first film of the year that makes a strong case [...]
