Magnolia Pictures have issued the first official trailer for Take This Waltz. Written and directed by Sarah Polley (Away from Her), Take This Waltz stars Michelle Williams (Blue Valentine), Seth Rogen (Knocked Up), Sarah Silverman (There’s Something About Mary), Luke Kirby (Shattered Glass) and Aaron Abrams (Cinderella Man). A funny, bittersweet and heart-wrenching story about [...]
Eleven years ago, with the release of Richard Kelly’s seminal cult classic Donnie Darko, the thought that I might be one day vying to defend this once prolific director to a dismissive general public and disenfranchised fanbase would have been as counter-intuitive as thoughts come. Following the theatrical release of Kelly’s freshman effort – which [...]
Previously known as Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse, Seth Rogen and Jay Baruchel’s horror comedy The Apocalypse has been a long time coming. Back in 2007, the comedy pair starred in the short film with the original title, and it was awesome. Since then, the project has been slowly moving forward to turn it [...]
‘Disney’ and ‘Seth Rogen’ are three words you probably wouldn’t expect ever to hear in the same sentence, but the movie industry is full of surprises, and if Robert Rodriguez can include Spy Kids and Sin City in his credits, then there’s nothing to stop Seth Rogen from coming on board to produce a Disney [...]
Directed by the excellent Jonathan Levine (The Wackness), 50/50 has been by far one of my favourite films of the year. I got to see the film a little early at this year’s BFI London Film Festival and absolutely loved it. So much so that I went and saw it again when it came out [...]
In spite of not being a household name (yet), Anna Kendrick has notched up a diverse and interesting selection of roles in her relatively short career, including Scott Pilgrim’s sharp-witted and slightly scary sister, the very sweet and somewhat out of her depth Natalie in Up in the Air – for which she received an [...]
We originally reviewed as part of our coverage of the London Film Festival this September and you can read Kenji’s take on the film here. As the film is released in UK cinemas today we have another view of the film for you, here’s how Kelly Alyse saw 50/50. If it wasn’t for Seth Rogen’s [...]
After a problematic development, including losing its original leading man and changing its title at least three times, the rather wonderful 50/50 comes to cinemas this week. Given the difficulties getting it to screen, and the rather unusual, ‘true life’ inspiration – writer Will Reiser not only had the form of cancer depicted in the [...]
Jonathan Levine’s 50/50 is finally on the cusp of hitting the big screen in the UK. America has had it for some time now, and I was lucky enough to catch it last month at the London Film Festival (and thought it deserved every one of the 5 stars I gave it in my review), [...]
Inspired by a true story, 50/50 is an original story about friendship, love, survival and finding humour in unlikely places. Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen star as best friends whose lives are changed by a cancer diagnosis in this new comedy directed by Jonathan Levine based on a script and story by Will Reiser. I [...]
50/50 heads to UK cinemas 25th November and Lionsgate UK have given us this brand new UK TV spot to debut for the movie which stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogan, Anna Kendrick, Bryce Dallas Howard and Angelica Huston. Lionsgate UK’s 50/50 is an original story about friendship, love, survival and finding humour in unlikely places, [...]
In the past few months, we’ve seen some great things coming out of the upcoming movie, 50/50, led by Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen. We’ve had some great images from the film, a fantastic new trailer, and most recently an insight into the film in a roundtable with the cast. I was lucky enough to [...]
50/50. Heads or tails. Live or die. At the very young age of just twenty-seven, Adam (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is diagnosed with a rare but operable form of cancer, and this is the survival rate he finds himself facing, his life placed in the hands of cold, hard, unchangeable chance. Fifty per cent beat it, fifty [...]
Ben has just come out of an interview with Seth Rogen for his new movie, 50/50 which is set to play at this years London Film Festival. In the interview, Seth spoke about the movie that he’s been trying to get off the ground for some time which had the title, Jay and Seth vs. [...]
If you’ve missed our coverage of Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen’s new movie, 50/50, I highly recommend that you spend a quick minute or two playing catch-up (which you can do here), because this is a movie to get excited about. The film is written by Will Reiser, a long-time friend of Rogen’s, based upon [...]
At the start of the week, we got the fantastic news that Seth Rogen had confirmed that James Franco and Jonah Hill, both long-time collaborators of Rogen’s, would be joining the cast of the long-awaited short-turned-feature-film, Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse. Now, in an interview with MTV, he’s confirmed that, along with himself, Jay [...]
British comic actor-turned-director Richard Ayoade is heading back in front of the camera to appear alongside a roster of huge names from the US in what will be his first high-profile big-screen role (and a part which Hollywood exile Chris Tucker was reportedly toying with before passing on). The I.T. Crowd star is set to [...]
Jay and Seth vs. the Apocalypse has been a long time coming, and you just know it’s going to be a freaking sweet film when it finally gets here. The idea for the film first gained attention back in 2007 when a short film/trailer for the forthcoming feature film was released, and it was pretty [...]
Reviewing this box set when it is out in stores and in all probability snapped up by eager Star Wars fans seems a little unnecessary. The promise of a shiny high def transfer and the long awaited deleted scenes from the Original Trilogy conspire to tempt you to part with your cash once more, to [...]
We’ve had a brilliant week filled with Star Wars-related goodness (which you can catch up on here) celebrating the release of Star Wars on Blu-Ray for the first time on Monday. Now that we’ve had our week, it’s time for America to have theirs, with the box set coming out there today, and Collider report [...]
