Oscar-nominated writer-director Oren Moverman returns behind the camera for Rampart, a fantastic second film that sees him to return to work with Woody Harrelson and Ben Foster from his debut, The Messengers. This time around, Harrelson is front and centre in the corrupt L.A. crime drama, and it’s a role that has been deservedly described [...]
Here’s a nice new featurette for Contraband which gives us a great overview on what the film is about and introduces us to the lead characters played by Mark Wahlberg, Kate Beckinsale and Giovanni Ribisi. It’ll be with us March 16th and after watching this, I’m really looking forward to seeing it. Contraband is directed [...]
Here’s the first UK poster for Woody Harrelson’s new movie, Rampart which is due here 24th February. Studio Canal have sent over the poster for the movie which boasts an awesome cast which includes Woody Harrelson, Ned Beatty, Ben Foster, Anne Heche, Ice Cube, Cynthia Nixon, Sigourney Weaver, Robin Wright, Steve Buscemi with Oren Moverman at [...]
For Rampart, writer-director Oren Moverman has reteamed with Woody Harrelson and Ben Foster, the stars of his Oscar-nominated debut, The Messenger, and he’s made what I think is the best cop crime drama since L.A. Confidential. I got to see the film at its UK premiere at the BFI London Film Festival back in October, [...]
Contraband is shaping up to be one of the best action crime dramas of next year, and we’ve already been seeing some great things from it, in the form of the first official trailer back in September, followed up by the first and second posters for the film, and most recently the second trailer just [...]
Oscar-nominated writer-director Oren Moverman’s return to the director’s chair for his second film, Rampart, is absolutely brilliant. I was lucky enough to catch the film at the London Film Festival back in October and thought it was utterly flawless. The film sees Moverman collaborating once more with the stars of his first film, The Messenger, [...]
The brilliant first clips for Oren Moverman’s return to the director’s chair in Rampart surfaced back in September, giving us a great look at the upcoming film in which Moverman collaborates once more with Woody Harrelson and Ben Foster, following their Oscar-nominated work on 2009’s The Messenger. We’ve now got a great first poster for [...]
A second trailer for the new Mark Wahlberg film, Contraband, has been unveiled and it’s not a subtle affair. This trailer eschews the talking and plot which was preferred for the initial trailer we saw in favour of all out action, shouting, guns pointed and a nice looking explosion in super slow motion. Watch them [...]
We got the first poster part-way through last month for Mark Wahlberg’s follow-up to his brilliant last film, The Fighter, and it was pretty awesome, coming a couple of weeks after the official trailer (which I’m personally avoiding, to stay spoiler-free, but you’re more than welcome to feast your eyes on it here). The film’s second [...]
Writer-director Oren Moverman’s last and first film, The Messenger, earned critical appraise at last year’s Academy Awards, where Moverman and co-writer Allesandro Camon were nominated for Best Original Screenplay and Woody Harrelson earned a well-deserved nomination for Best Supporting Actor. The Messenger may not have done particularly well at the box office, and it sadly [...]
Mark Wahlberg’s next film, Contraband, is definitely one to look forward to next year. I’m a big Wahlberg fan, so anything he’s in I know I’m going to love, and this project sounds like more brilliance from him. The first trailer landed at the end of last month, and I’ve heard that it’s looking pretty [...]
Many remain ambivalent regarding the news of another Die Hard entry being officially greenlit. I have sincerely got nothing but love for the franchise and although I think Die Hard 4.0 / Live Free or Die Hard suffered from being artificially squeezed into a more “friendly” rating/certificate, it was still a welcome and commendable addition [...]
Here’s one for Orange customers and information on how you can get the Orange Film to Go this week. Every week, Orange will be doing their Film Night Live which is an online web streaming Q&A to coincide with the movie that they are giving away for nothing (I can’t use the word ‘free’ but [...]
Fernando Meirelles’ latest is an interesting choice for the opening film to the 55th BFI London Film Festival and it finds the City of God director expanding his horizons to encompass sexual politics on a global scale with Rachel Weisz, Jude Law and Anthony Hopkins making up part of the ensemble cast. The film is [...]

Directed by Baltasar Kormákur (The Sea), Contraband stars Mark Wahlberg, Kate Beckinsale, Caleb Landry Jones, Ben Foster, Giovanni Ribisi, Lukas Haas, J.K. Simmons and Diego Luna. Chris Farraday (Wahlberg) long ago abandoned his life of crime, but after his brother-in-law, Andy (Jones), botches a drug [...]
Back in May, we got the terrific first look at Woody Harrelson in his next upcoming film, Rampart, along with the official full synopsis, and right from the get-go it looked and sounded brilliant. Earlier this month, we then got the first three clips from the film, just after it had its world premiere at [...]
Oscar-nominated Fernando Meirelles (City of God, The Constant Gardener) has surrounded himself with an absolutely stellar group of people to help him make his latest film, 360. With a script from two-time Oscar nominee, Peter Morgan (The Queen, Frost/Nixon), and a cast headed up by Anthony Hopkins, Rachel Weisz, Jude Law, and Ben Foster, there’s [...]
This is a film that I truly cannot wait for. Directed and co-written by Oren Moverman (The Messenger), and co-written by the celebrated US crime novelist James Ellroy (L.A. Confidential), the film has just had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. Moverman first started making a name for himself back in 2007 [...]
