The Girl Who Played With Fire Poster

Girl who played with fire poster

When I saw the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo earlier this year I was amazed by how powerful and brilliant it was, I knew little of the Stieg Larsson’s best-selling Millennium Trilogy books and was put off by the trailer for the film that was quite frankly appalling and deceptive to what the film was [...]

Robin Hood Review

Robin Hood is to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival this week but we’ve seen it and here’s our review. In the movie, we see Ridley Scott re-team with Russell Crowe in their fifth collaboration together. Many have wondered if Crowe can pull off the task of making a convincing Robin Hood.  Read on to [...]

You Probably Shouldn’t Watch This Robert Rodriguez Directed Music Video

40 Dogs

Robert Rodriguez is probably best known for films such as From Dusk Till Dawn, Sin City and Planet Terror but he is also well known for his more family friendly work on the Spy Kids films. Embedded below is a new music video directed by Rodriguez and it is definitely sits in the family friendly [...]

First Images From Ti West’s The Innkeepers

The Innkeepers Still 1

I reviewed Ti West’s House of the Devil earlier this year and I really loved it. You can read my thoughts on the film here. I am therefore looking forward to seeing what Ti West does next and today we got the first glimpse at his upcoming film, The Innkeepers. The film is set in [...]

Sherlock Holmes DVD Review

sherlock holmes dvd

Guy Ritchie’s recent form may have prejudiced some people from seeing Sherlock Holmes at the cinemas last year, but in the event it was the combination of a great cast, a fitting score and a tamed Ritchie behind the camera which led to a roaring success at the box office. We enjoyed the film very [...]

Two New Clips From Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

Although I still can’t get past that awful title and the casting of one of my least favourite actors, Shia Lebouf, the trailers released so far for Oliver Stone’s follow up to his 1987 film Wall Street have looked promising. Hopefully Gordon Gekko’s return to the big screen will be a great one as he has [...]

Fright Night Remake Casts Spell on Colin Farrell and Toni Collette

fright night pster

I loved the 1985 Fright Night, and remember it well as a perfect double bill with The Lost Boys, and while the latter film has spawned a cult following (and what seems like an endless stream of forthcoming sequels) it appears the time is right for a remake of Tom Holland’s film. News today from [...]

Avatar Becomes the Biggest Selling UK Blu Ray

Here’s a no brainier article but probably worth reporting on anyway! If I asked you what you thought the biggest selling blu ray of all time was, what would you say? You’d either guess Avatar or The Dark Knight wouldn’t you? Well, you’d be absolutely right! Twentieth Century Fox have issued a press release letting [...]

Judge Dredd Movie Has Both Director and Money

judge dredd

There were numerous mistakes made in the 1995 Judge Dredd film, not least taking Sylvester Stallone’s lawman out of his iconic uniform early on in the film, but also ditching the decaying political undertones of the original concept, in effect neutering the movie and resigning it to lay strewn in amongst the hundreds of other [...]

Samuel Maoz: Exclusive Lebanon Interview

“I wrote what I felt.  I wanted to talk about emotional wounds, to tell the story of a slaughtered soul, a story that was not to be found in the body of the plot but derived from deep within it.  How the hell could I put that on film?” Tel-Aviv born writer/director Samuel Maoz has [...]

The Official Prince of Persia World Premiere Video Montage

By now, you’ve probably seen my footage, interviews and photos from the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time World Premiere in London on Sunday night. The event was a wonderful spectacle with probably the best show I’ve seen at a London premiere. As well as all the cast being there, they had a wonderful [...]

Jane Goldman Hired to Script X-Men: First Class

I’ve woken up to exiting British movie news this morning. While going through my twitter feed, I saw that Jonathan Ross (think of him as the British David Letterman who does a similar show once a week – see him interview Jake Gyllenhaal and cook an iPad here!) has tweeted that his wife, Jane Goldman [...]

On Set Conan Pics Emerge

Conan 1

So, here are the first pics to fly out from the Bulgarian set of Marcus Nispel’s big screen adaptation of Robert E. Howard’s barbarian hero, known to the world as Conan. Coming to us via Latino Review and Quiet Earth these pictures apparently came from a crew member whose eclectic eye for their photographic choice [...]

HeyUGuys IMDb250 Project – Week 16

lebowski time magazine

Week 16 of the wonderful IMDb 250 project is upon us and we are now 80 films into the 250 target and almost a third of the way through the supposed best 250 films of all time. Week 16 gave me the chance to watch another wonderful selection of films in The Lives of Others, [...]

Top 10 Movie Things I Wish Were Real

Bumblebee

One of the best things about movies is the suspension of belief.  It could be something along the lines of an intricately choreographed fight scene, cars from the future or hovering skateboards.  Whatever it is, you’ve no doubt wanted something you’ve seen in a movie. While my list is too long to list every little [...]

The First Image of Peter Sarsgaard in Green Lantern

Green Lantern - Peter Sarsgaard

I don’t go on Sky’s showbiz website very often (honest!) but it would appear AICN do as they’ve spotted the first image of Peter Sarsgaard as on there! As you’ll see in full when you scroll down, the makeup used on his character, Hector Hammond is rather substantial and extremely freaky! I don’t claim to [...]

The First Poster for Jack Black’s Gulliver’s Travels

Gullivers Travels Poster

Remember Cannes last year? We had Inglourious Basterds, A Christmas Carol and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. This year, there’s a bit of Robin Hood, some Tamara Drew and probably a whole lot more promotional material from all the other big movies coming out later on this year. Simon Gallagher is our man on the [...]

You can watch the show in the player embedded below and ask them questions using the Facebook group here. The event is scheduled to start at 10.50am [...]

The London Movie Premiere – Leicester Square vs. Westfield

Westfield Shopping Centre

Last night, HeyUGuys attended the World Premiere of Disney’s new movie, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (you can see all our coverage here). The big change in this premiere to all others was the location in which it was staged. Rather than bringing the world’s press to London’s famous and historic Leicester Square, [...]

Anthony Hopkins Up For Role of Arabian Nights Villain

anthony hopkins

There are few actors whose attachment to a project, even as a rumour, propels my interest in the film quite as much as Sir Anthony Hopkins. So far all we know is the casting of Liam Hemsworth in Chuck Russell’s adaptation of the classic story compendium Arabian Nights, which I’m guessing will be a CG [...]
