This evening, myself and the lovely Laura from Who’s Jack headed off into what we thought would be the warm for the UK Premiere of EOne Entertainment’s new movie, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1. Turns out it was outdoors but we didn’t let the cold get our spirits down and had a [...]
With the world in a spin following the release of the first full trailer for Gary Ross’s adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games it can come as no surprise that plans are already in motion for the movie based on the second book in the trilogy, Catching Fire. The director is expected to return [...]
Tim Burton, beloved director of such dark and brilliant films as Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, Sweeney Todd, and many more cult classics, is well known and noted for his unique oddness of vision that he brings to all his films. So the news that he’s in early talks to come on board a novel entitled, [...]
We’ve already had a new trailer for Pixar’s Brave today and now the mighty Aardman have unveiled another look at their forthcoming film The Pirates! Band of Misfits (or The Pirates! In an adventure with Scientists if you’re hailing from the good old U of, um, K…) and it’s just wonderful. Dave was lucky enough [...]
We saw the powerful first trailer for Angelina Jolie’s feature directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey, a few weeks ago, and it gave a strong indication that we can expect a lot from Jolie as both a writer and director, bringing us what looks to be a tremendous, even important, first film. [...]
I’m going to start off by stressing that this trailer really earns its red band rating, so if you’re at work or anywhere with kids around, it’s definitely recommended that you check back here later to watch it. But do be sure to check back in, because it’s an awesome trailer. David Gordon Green, director [...]
Two-time Oscar-winner Tom Hanks is a man who truly needs no introduction, every bit deserving of the fame and reverence that follows his name. Though his last film, Larry Crowne, wasn’t particularly well-received, his next film, Extremely Loud And Incredibly Close, has some Oscar buzz surrounding it that I’m really interested by, and could see [...]
Anything new from Pixar is guaranteed to be worth watching but this new trailer for their forthcoming film Brave is just a joy to behold.

Tonight is the night that Twihards across the UK have been waiting for! It’s the UK Premiere of Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1!

We’re on the red carpet right [...]
We had a good time with Dominic Burns’ How to Stop Being a Loser and the recent premiere in London gave us a chance to catch up with the cast and crew. Along with Dave’s review (which you can read here) we have two interviews coming up over the next couple of days, with leading [...]
Director Hong-jin Na made something of a splash with his début film, The Chaser, in 2008 and the film quickly brought him to the attention of Hollywood with Warner Brothers buying up the remake rights to The Chaser for $1 million. Hong-jin Na’s latest, The Yellow Sea, is also the first Korean film to receive investment from a major [...]
A new clip for Mark Pellington’s I Melt With You has been released this month, looking at the raw truth of the modern male psyche.

Larry Crowne (director/writer/star Tom Hanks), once a cook with the US Navy, now a dedicated and mild-mannered employee with a large department store, is laid off due to constrained financial times and his lack of a college degree. Initially shell-shocked, he quickly adjusts by enrolling in a local community college in the hope of making [...]

For our non-desi reader I would like to put in a disclaimer that I am not reviewing the Mark Wahlberg – Jennifer Aniston “Judas Priest” inspired rock classic, I know how disappointing this must be for at least… 7 people. What we are reviewing this week is powerhouse triumvirate of 4 film old director Imtiaz [...]

And if you have, then you can catch up on all things Hobbit-related here. Most recently we’ve had [...]
Though some might disagree, this is a project that’s been shaping up pretty damn nicely in my eyes recently. Based on Katsuhiro Otomo’s original Japanese manga/anime, Akira is set to make its big-screen American adaptation with Unknown’s Jaume Collet-Serra in the driving seat behind the camera. TRON: Legacy’s Garrett Hedlund, who I think has deservedly [...]
