Well no, since you asked. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t deeply flawed. The Oscars are the high watermark of film recognition. The red carpet trampling, lovvie love-a-thon that is the motion picture awards season starts in earnest with the Golden Globes in early January and extravagantly culminates every year in late February with the [...]
Having written about the realms of US politics (The American President, the frankly peerless West Wing) and then TV production (Studio 60), Aaron Sorkin, who for my money is as gifted and talented a writer as there is out there, now seems to be setting his sights on the various icons of the IT world. [...]
To mark the release of Holy Rollers on DVD and Blu-ray 24th October, Crabtree Films have given us three copies of the movie to give away on Blu-ray. ‘Holy Rollers’ stars heavyweight performers BAFTA and Oscar nominated*Jessie Eisenberg (‘The Social Network’, ‘Zombieland’) and Justin Bartha (‘The Hangover 1 & 2’). Set between the bustling streets [...]
Quite how David Fincher plucked and gothed Rooney Mara into the terrifying Lisbeth Salander is anybody’s guess, but the actress is has stepped into one hell of a role with Noomi Rapace already catapulted to crazy fame with her portrayal of the character in the Swedish adaptations of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium trilogy. Putting a director [...]
The official website of David Fincher’s adaptation of Stieg Larsson’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo has been updated and there’s a whole host of new pictures and character profiles to give you an idea of the faces and names you’ll be getting involved with over the next few years. I’m just starting out in [...]
Similar to last year’s The Social Network, Middle Men offers another online phenomenon (this time the rise of internet porn) as the basis for a tale of greed, deception and the vast financial rewards to be reaped from it all (all at the cost of everything else, of course). It’s a sprightly, if derivative yarn [...]
Using real events as its inspiration, the intriguing crime drama Holy Rollers is a fascinating story about temptation and consequences, centred around another arresting performance from Jesse Eisenberg as an outsider who wants in. Sam Gold (Eisenberg) is a young Hasid living with his family in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg Orthodox community. His parents want him to pursue rabbinical [...]
No doubt many of you saw the ripped Red-Band trailer at the weekend for David Fincher’s adaptation of bestseller, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Well , now you can watch a nice, clear and legit Green-Band version, which although designed for a universal audience, still has the same incredible momentum and visceral feel of [...]
Here’s something new for you HeyUGuys readers! This rather nice informative video gives you all the information you’re going to need about what you should be watching at the cinema. April is just around the corner and we have bank holidays coming out of our ears (definitely not complaining!) which means more time to go [...]
Will Gluck (Easy A) is in talks to direct Sex on the Moon, an adaptation of Sex on the Moon: The Amazing Story Behind the Most Audacious Heist in History. Sex on the Moon is written by Ben Mezrich, author of The Accidental Billionaires, which was adapted by Aaron Sorkin into the Academy Award winning The Social [...]
HeyUGuys were proud to be invited to the red carpet at the 2011 BAFTA Awards by Orange tonight in London’s Covent Garden tonight to see some great films celebrated and to take a moment to appreciate the wealth of talent making the films honoured tonight. The King’s Speech lived up to the high expectations it [...]

We’re currently at the BAFTA awards in London and while we’re waiting for the red carpet to busy itself with nominees and the flashstorm of the paparazzi I wanted to show you these lovely works of art which are part of the BAFTA brochure for this year’s ceremony. The five Best Film nominees are all [...]
Last night HeyUGuys had the pleasure of attending the 31st London Critics’ Circle Film Awards. Hosted at the BFI Southbank, it was a great evening, featuring talented names aplenty all supping from complimentary miniature bottles of Moët served up classily with bendy straws. It might not have the same profile as this weekend’s BAFTA ceremony, [...]
Tonight saw the fall of the 31st Critics’ Circle Film Awards, which was held for the first time at London’s BFI Southbank. Our full report will be online later today with all the red carpet gossip and winner’s reactions. Want to see Danny Boyle advertising Moët, hear about Aaron Sorkin’s upcoming HBO series, or find [...]
The story of Facebook founder Mark Zukerberg’s ascension to the top (and the ensuing drama around his creation) has proved to be a big box office draw, and it also looks like The Social Network may be the recipient of a number of Oscars, come March time. Following that film’s success and the current thirst [...]
While we’ve had Sex and the City, it now it looks as though we can look forward to Sex on the Moon as well…only not really. Ben Mezrich – who previously penned The Social Network’s source text ‘The Accidental Billionaires’ and ‘Bringing Down the House’ which inspired 21 – is busy putting the finishing touches [...]
