Six of the Best – Bruce Willis

surrogates1

This week, Bruce Willis stars in the sci-fi action movie Surrogates, directed by Jonathan Mostow. At one time this would have made it a marquee release, with a huge promotional push, but there’s been very little hype about it. Is Willis’ star fading? To put it in perspective, if Will Smith was the star of [...]

Avatar-001

With District 9 now open, it’s very tempting to start looking ahead to this year’s last big movie, James Cameron’s 3D game-changer Avatar. But with a full three months before Avatar’s release, this would be a grave disservice to all the potentially great films due to hit theatres in the interim. With comedies, sci-fi, sequels [...]

Trailer: The Descent Part 2

According to this new trailer, ‘Critics called Descent, the most terrifying monster movie since Alien’. The caption then says ‘The Daily Star‘ in very small letters.
