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 [...]




Anne Hathaway circling Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar with Matthew McConaughey

The-Dark-Knight-Rises-Anne-Hathaway-Catwoman

Oh wow. After taking a leading role last year in Christopher Nolan’s epic franchise-concluder, The Dark Knight Rises, Anne Hathaway is now close to making a deal to star opposite Matthew McConaughey in Nolan’s next film, Interstellar. We first heard late last month that McConaughey was being eyed to take the leading role in the [...]

Sundance 2013 – Mud Review

Matthew-McConaughey-in-mud

When a film like Jeff Nichol’s Mud gets its premiere at Sundance, it immediately becomes the victim of quite a bit of unwarranted slander.  For one thing, the film already has distribution with Lionsgate, and the fact that one of its leading roles is played by the likes of Matthew McConaughey, makes it an easy [...]




First Trailer for Mud starring Matthew McConaughey and Reese Witherspoon

Matthew-McConaughey-in-mud

One of the movies we’re very much looking forward to seeing at Sundance 2013 has to be Mud starring Matthew McConaughey and Reese Witherspoon. It’s directed by Jeff Nichols who has previously brought us the wonderfully clever and seriously intense movie Take Shelter (if you’ve never seen it, you really should). Also starring are Tye [...]

One of the most promising things we heard about last year is True Detective. Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey are on board [...]




If 2012 Were A Movie…

2012 Olympics Logo

Having already worked to adapt last year’s release schedule for the big screen — you can thank me when you run out of board games, Hollywood — I thought I’d try to do the same with 2012. After all, we’re all about franchises here, particularly those with some semblance of name recognition. If 2012 were [...]

Killer-Joe

Any new film from William Friedkin is worth your time, and with Killer Joe he has delivered a delicious slice of Southern Fried thriller featuring a standout performance from Matthew McConaughey, ably supported by Emile Hirsch and Juno Temple.

Eastbound and Down Season 3 Blu-Ray Review

Eastbound-and-Down-Season-3-Blu-Ray

Writer and director Jody Hill seems to be one of the best talents working on television as well as cinema’s best kept secret. His films The Foot Fist Way and Observe and Report were darker than black comedies that studied the hubris and the egos of their delusional protagonist’s as they went through a redemptive [...]




Paramount lands Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street with Leonardo DiCaprio

Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese

Martin Scorsese’s return behind the camera with The Wolf of Wall Street has naturally been one of the most anticipated of the films going into production this year.

Matthew McConaughey keeps his shirt on

The search for anonymous goons with guns starts here. Matthew McConaughey has made an eye-catching statement of intent with his slimy turn in Killer Joe, suggesting he’s more than just a square jaw and a chiselled torso. Until next week, of course, when Magic Mike reaches these shores and his chiselled torso once again takes [...]

Well, get ready to be surprised, as Magic Mike is a brilliantly compelling comedy drama by esteemed director Steven Soderbergh. Tatum plays Magic Mike, a talented male stripper who has dreams [...]
