Seeing the first official production images to come out of the New Zealand set of The Hobbit had a far greater effect on me than I anticipated. With the tortuous pre-production process over and Peter Jackson back in the director’s chair the pictures of a Baggins back in Bag End reminded me of the sheer [...]
In spite of the mild enthusiasm that Green Lantern has found upon its release, both in terms of box office performance and critics’ reviews, THR report that Warner Bros. are already planning the film’s sequel to set up a new superhero franchise. Green Lantern had a budget of $200m., with what’s said to have been [...]
A few days ago, Simon Pegg gave the world a little heads up on Twitter that the first trailer for Mission Impossible 4 or, to give it the proper name – Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol would be relased shortly and today it’s out, but not as I’m sure Paramount intended. Attached to the front [...]
Flypaper is Rob Minkoff’s bank robber comedy with Patrick Dempsey, Tim Blake Nelson and ashley Judd. Patrick Dempsey is not an angel, though thisnew International poster surrounds him with an angelic glow and showers him with money while two seedy types look at something in the distance. Seriously they aren’t even trying with this one [...]

It’s only a small image of Gary Oldman in Tomas Alfredson’s much anticipated adaptation of John Le Carre’s Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, but it’s Gary Oldman so of course it’s worth taking a look at. Oldman is joined by Colin Firth, Toby Jones, Ciaran Hindes and the wonderful Kathy Burke, as well as man of [...]

I’ll need to buy a pair of boxing gloves when this poster hits the streets as I want to punch it in the face. What happened to this poster? Eh? I have no idea what this is meant to mean, or who it’s meant to appeal to, or what that tagline means, can anyone tell [...]

The movie is directed by Lone Scherfig and stars Jim Sturgess & Anne Hathaway. Twenty years…two people. Directed by Lone Scherfig (director of “An Education,” Academy Award-nominated for [...]
It was hard not to love Seth Gordon’s documentary The King of Kong. Not only did it make watching a guy playing a decades old arcade game interesting but it constructed an excellent, if fairly biased, narrative between two very different personalities. We are a month away from seeing Gordon’s Horrible Bosses and Deadline are [...]

It’s been a while since we’ve seen or heard anything from the set of John McTeigue’s next, The Raven, and frankly this first look at John Cusack as Edgar Allan Poe is only a step above the very first pics which leaked from the set and is nothing like as atmospheric as this beauty from [...]
Apparently Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, King Kong, The Frighteners, Bad Taste et al) is a huge fan of The Dam Busters, the iconic 1955 film about the development and deployment of the bouncing bomb, which in 1943 was used to destroy a key German dam. It’s not quite clear what his [...]
Following its limited theatrical release so far, word of mouth on Terrence Malick’s latest has been mixed. Some have, predictably, greatly enjoyed it, others have dismissed it as a mess. As always, Malick’s work is infused with depictions of creation in all of its beauty and this time around F/X guru Douglas Trumbull (2001, Close [...]
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: part 2 is out on July 15 - the date is fast approaching, and before we know it we’ll find ourselves watching the last Harry Potter ever with sweaty palms and bittersweet anticipation.
