Share/Bookmark Much ink has been spent debating the merits of a Straw Dogs remake and whatever director Rod Lurie pulls out of the bag, this film and the original are likely to continue to court controversy. Although Lurie continues to hold his cards close to his chest regarding the centre-piece of the film and how [...]
Share/BookmarkOkay, so there is no shortage of material already out there for “Our Idiot Brother”, Paul Rudd’s latest lead role, as an Idiot Brother. The trailers so far (you can catch up on everything so far right here) show that Paul Rudd is indeed an idiot and these latest two offerings do nothing to detract [...]
Share/BookmarkMoon based stalk/scare frenzy Apollo 18 has the intriguing premise of a secret lunar mission with unknown nasties attacking the astronauts, however despite a few well designed early teases the more we’ve seen of this film the more generic it’s looking. Secret ‘found’ footage gimmicks and conspiracy craziness swirl around this but it won’t be [...]

This is an amazing number for a movie which according [...]

Share/BookmarkThough Ryan Reynolds’ latest film here, Green Lantern, didn’t perform that great at the box office, taking just under its $200m. budget at the box office, it was nice to see Reynolds generally accepted as one of the best things the film had going for it. One of his next projects, RIPD, is starting to [...]
Share/BookmarkWe get sent a lot of emails about new movies coming out and often quite a few shorts. As much as I love working on HeyUGuys what feels like 24 hours a day (I’m writing this post at 1.30am to prove the point) but problems come when trying to find time to to prioritise what [...]

Share/Bookmark When you think you’re going to visit the set of a feature film you have these glorious images of massive soundstages, cameras and movie stars running around. You don’t think you’ll be driving to the middle of nowhere. In fact, on our way to the set of “Mentryville” we drove right past the Hollywood [...]

Share/BookmarkWith Matthew McConaughey returning to the legal drama genre for last month’s DVD and BD release of The Lincoln Lawyer (you can catch our review here), it seems a sensible time to consider the truly great courtroom scenes and films of cinema history. No, this is not intended to be a definitive list and no, [...]

Share/BookmarkReview by Mark Foker. “I just missed your heart” are the first and last words uttered in this marvellous adventure thriller by Director Joe Wright. See?…you’re interested already.

Share/BookmarkGary Ross’ adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ New York Times bestseller novel of the same name has been getting more and more attention over the past few months.

Share/BookmarkIf coming-of-age, indie-styled films of late will have us believe, every white, privileged school kid is a volatile mass of unresolved angst and superior intellect, waiting to explode on an uncaring, uncompromising world around them. Debut feature writer-director Gavin Wiesen has joined the ‘cool kids’ gang of film-makers, championing the secretly chic and misunderstood nerds [...]

Bloody Disgusting report that Dan Aykroyd, the man so awesome he’s had a band named in his honour (Dananananaykroyd), has said that Ghostbusters III will be going into production in early 2012, with or without Bill Murray. His hope is of course that Murray will be [...]
