Josh Duhamel - Transformers 3

Still no robots to be seen in this second clip from the Michael Bay directed movie, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, the third instalment in the Transformers franchise.

Win Win Review

Win Win Poster

Win Win‘s credentials are truly promising: writer-director Tom McCarthy has made two acclaimed indie features (The Station Agent and The Visitor), and the film’s marvellous leads Paul Giammati and Amy Ryan are ably served by a great supporting cast, but in the end the film doesn’t equal the sum of its parts. It’s not a bad [...]

Exclusive Trailer for French Horror Movie – The Pack

The Pack Poster

We were offered a clip from French horror movie, The Pack a month or two back and it was so freaky that I turned it down. I’ve never done that before but this movie is set to scare the crap out of you! Craig reviewed it when it played at Frightfest last year and you [...]

Take Me Home Tonight Review

Take Me Home Tonight Poster

What is it about the 80s that provokes such unwavering nostalgia? With Hollywood throwing back with films such as The Rocker and Hot Tub Time Machine, there appears to be a perfectly renewable audience for movies that channel boomboxes, Farrah hair and Back to the Future. Forget wind-turbines, if only we could find a way [...]

The Way Review

The Way Poster

The Way, the latest directorial effort from Emilio Estevez following the uneven but enjoyable Bobby, is a film filled with entirely earnest sentiments and reasonably lofty aspirations. Throughout the film though these earnest sentiments are presented in a twee and hard to stomach manner and any of the obvious aspirations are never really met, the [...]

Hugh Bonneville

The word from Cannes is that Downton Abbey star Hugh Bonneville is set to star in Shoreline Entertainment’s reworking of the Captain Nemo character, under the direction of Pearry Teo (Witchville in China). Last seen jumping the shark in Stephen Norrington’s infamous (but unconnected) The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Captain Nemo will team up with President Ulysses Grant [...]

It’s still a way off, but it’s coming. /Film has got the first teaser image for the film, unveiled at Cannes after news came last week that The Weinstein Co. had purchased distribution rights.

An Appropriate Poster for Footnote

HEARAT SHULAYIM (FOOTNOTE) POSTER

Currently playing in competition at Cannes, Footnote (aka Hearat Shulayim) is the latest film from Joseph Cedar and focuses on the oddly compelling story of Talmudic scholars and the infighting surrounding a prestigious prize. Whilst I was not entirely impressed with the film, my review will be up on the site shortly, I rather like [...]

alcatraz

J.J. Abrams, who seemingly loves a good mystery more than anyone else on the planet, is behind yet another “what the devil is going on here then?” show, due to start up in the US in the autumn/fall. This time around, the launching-off point for the show is that when Alcatraz closed in the 1960′s, [...]

keanu-reeves

The film adaptation of Katsuhiro Otomo’s classic manga Akira has been in development for longer than anybody can remember.  WB has consistently struggling to rein in the film’s ever increasing budget while at the same time trying to place the film’s key players.  The most persistent problem of all though, has been finding the two [...]

Lars Von Trier Upsets Everybody & Is Banned from Cannes

Lars Von Trier

Last night, after a well received screening of his new film Melancholia at Cannes, director Lars Von Trier, along with the cast of his film, held a press conference to discuss the movie with the assembled journalists. This sort of thing happens every day at film festivals and is usually quite dull. Not so the [...]

Cannes 2011 – Polisse Review

Polisse

Writer, director and actor Maiwenn’s new film, Polisse, is a dramatic feature about a Parisian Police Child Protection Unit that absorbs one in its often difficult and upsetting subject matter but also struggles with its challenging tone. Weaving a variety of overlapping stories together, we are told in an opening title card that these are [...]

Green Lantern Poster – Abin Sur

Warner Bros. have released another poster for Green Lantern which now must surely mean they have released more posters for an individual movie than any other studio ever! Seriously have a look at this link showing you all our Green Lantern coverage and you’ll see what I mean (and we haven’t posted all of them!). [...]

Blitz Review

Blitz 1

If there was ever an award for an opening scene to a film which perfectly summed up the maker’s manifesto for the rest of the running time, Blitz would take the grand prize. In it, star Jason Statham drags himself out of a whisky-induced slumber when he spies some young teenage thugs trying to break [...]
