Bernie Review

Bernie

Having debuted here at the London Film Festival two years back, Richard Linklater’s darkly comedic character study finally receives a theatrical release. This gap may have been, in part, down to the distributor, as the film isn’t the easiest to market. It’s a quiet, muted affair with a style of humour worlds away from the [...]




The HeyUGuys Interview: Jack Black Talks About Bernie

Jack-Black

When Bernie, the Jack Black-starring biopic of mortician/murderer Bernie Tiede, finally hits cinemas this week, it will have been 363 days since it went on release in the US, and over 18 months since it first screened in the UK at 2011’s London Film Festival. In the meantime it has been critically lauded, and picked [...]

Video Vault: High Fidelity

video vault high fidelity

“What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because [...]




First Trailer and Poster for Bernie with Jack Black

Bernie poster

We got our first look at Richard Linklater’s Bernie in the spring last year, which sees him reuniting with Jack Black after making School of Rock together. It’s received some slightly mixed reviews after screenings at various film festivals, but all seem to suggest that Black is doing some of his best work in years, [...]

Another Wonderful Poster for The Muppets

The Muppets Poster

You can never have too much Muppets and we’ve been gifted with this new poster which we’d like to share with you. I still can’t get used to Kermit standing, nor Gonzo’s ‘heroic’ pose but any poster with Fozzie in it is worth taking a gander at. The film is out in the UK next [...]




The Big Year Review

the-big-year

A comedy about bird watching – or ‘birding’, as it’s officially known – is such a random concept that it must surely be one of great mockery of the pastime. But Marley & Me and The Devil Wears Prada director David Frankel’s The Big Year manages to give it a little eccentric charm and grounded purpose, [...]

More Muppets today, with a well-timed jab to the ribs of The Twilight Saga in the midst of its global release week, and these new posters are just perfect.

Disney have released a sneak peek at the opening dance sequence from the highly anticipated The Muppets this week. The clip is short but it certainly lets us know what we are in for. And that’s a whole load of fun, familiar faces and goofiness. Now all we need is for February to hurry up. [...]

A Small Clip For The Big Year

The Big Year

Although The Big Year appears to lack the bite and edge that one might hope for from a Steve Martin vehicle, it is perhaps in keeping with the gradual softening of his output (as well as that of his cohorts Jack Black and Owen Wilson) and hey, as our Steven Neish is forever saying regarding [...]




Charlie Kaufman Aims His Sights on Film Critics

Should we be worried? Charlie Kaufman is set to attack the world of online film criticism with his latest directing project Frank or Francis. After his directorial debut Synecdoche New York won critics over, as most of his films do, Kaufman is turning to Hollywood and making a satire about a movie director who feuds [...]
