Movie Review — Restless

Granted, I’m a little late in breaking the news here, but if anything, this list proves there was no news to break. [...]
Pre-production has begun in Hawai’i for The Descendants, based on the book by Kaui Hart Hemmings. Academy Award®-winning writer/director Alexander Payne teams up with Clooney for the first time in what should have the audience saying “mahalo” by the time the end credits roll. The Descendants is Hawai’i native Hemmings’ first novel; the production marks a return [...]

Jason Reitman’s Up in the Air, which has gotten stunningly good festival reviews, finally has a release date. The film will go limited on December 4th.
