The Incredible Burt Wonderstone Movie Review

Friday, March 15th, 2013

A spoof on dueling magicians seems as good a premise as any for a comedy staring Steve Carell and Jim Carrey.  Unfortunately, THE INCREDIBLE BURT WONDERSTONE can’t quite pull off the trick to makes us laugh for the full 100 minutes.  To be fair, the film does have a handful of funny moments and I [...]

Argo Movie Review

Monday, October 15th, 2012

Based on the true story during the 1979 Iran hostage crisis, ARGO is a captivating political thriller that no one should miss.  The film follows CIA specialist Tony Mendez (Ben Affleck) and his plight to rescue six U.S. diplomats from Tehran after the Iranian revolution had reached maximum heights using an extremely unorthodox cover of [...]

Ben Affleck, Bryan Cranston and John Goodman in more photos from the thriller Argo

Friday, September 28th, 2012

More photos have been released from Ben Affleck’s upcoming film ARGO and they seem to showcase a lot of snazzy wardrobe choices from the 1970s, as well as some good shots of Ben Affleck and John Goodman. Not only does it look like we’re getting actual shots from the film, but it appears we’re also [...]

Ben Affleck is up close and personal in the new Argo poster

Monday, September 17th, 2012

A new poster for the 1970′s film ARGO has been released, and for anyone who wanted to get an up close and personal shot of Ben Affleck then this poster is for you. Actually this shot of Ben Affleck is so in your face it’s almost disturbing, Ben Affleck should be thankful this film was [...]

Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin star in the new Stand Up Guys trailer

Thursday, September 13th, 2012

Just one week after we got a first photo from the upcoming gangster film STAND UP GUYS, starring Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin, we’re getting a full length trailer. That’s actually pretty impressive since the film doesn’t hit theaters until January, you often don’t see trailers for smaller films like this until late [...]

Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin in a new photo from Stand Up Guys

Thursday, September 6th, 2012

An action/dramedy to look for early next year is STAND UP GUYS which stars Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin. Directed by Fisher Stevens, STAND UP GUYS follows three retired gangsters who reunite for one “epic night”. Not surprisingly, STAND UP GUYS never hit my radar as I don’t really follow the careers of [...]

Thin Ice Blu-ray Review

Saturday, July 21st, 2012

Set in the cold snowy months of Wisconsin, THIN ICE follows an insurance salesman trying to pull a scam over an old man’s valuable violin that goes terribly awry.  Director Jill Sprecher co-wrote the script with her sister Karen Sprecher who delivers a nice “idea” of a dark comedy with a decent production and some [...]

Ben Affleck rocks the 70′s vibe in new trailer for Argo

Tuesday, May 8th, 2012

After the success of THE TOWN I’ve been eagerly awaiting Ben Affleck’s next directing project, and so far I’m not disappointed in what I’ve seen. The next film helmed by Ben Affleck is the political thriller ARGO, in which Ben Affleck not only directs but stars in. I don’t know what else to say except [...]

Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin are Stand Up Guys

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

There’s so many geriatric jokes to make with this news story that I can’t actually choose just one.  So lets just let it go and get to the news, which is that Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin are all set to star in the action comedy STAND UP GUYS.  The film is about [...]

Ben Affleck leads the way in a new image from Argo

Monday, January 30th, 2012

One of the films I’m most looking forward to in 2012 is one that probably won’t get the same amount of attention as say THE HUNGER GAMES or THE DARK KNIGHT RISES and that’s Ben Affleck’s ARGO.  Affleck once again takes on dual acting and directing roles as the leader of a group of CIA [...]

First look at a scruffy Ben Affleck in Argo

Monday, December 26th, 2011

I’m compiling my lest of the top movies to look forward to in 2012 (look for it on January 2nd) and one of the films that’s probably going to make the list is Ben Affleck‘s ARGO.  The movie is based off the true story of a CIA operation that saved six American hostages.  The twist?  [...]

The Rocketeer (Blu-ray)

Wednesday, December 21st, 2011

Before the Clark Kent was leaping over tall buildings in a single bound…before Bruce Wayne was dressing up like a caped crusader…before Hal Jordan spoke limericks into a lantern…there was THE ROCKETEER. It’s 1938 in Los Angeles and a young, handsome pilot has just stumbled upon a prototype for a self propelling jet pack.  Cliff [...]

Ben Affleck goes back to the 70s with Alan Arkin in these set photos from Argo

Thursday, September 8th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce What’s the first thing that I think of when I see Ben Affleck on the set of his new film, ARGO? Two words: Fred O’Bannion. DAZED AND CONFUSED will be in my heart forever no matter how uncool O’Bannion was. ARGO is pretty far in subject matter from DAZED. Affleck directs [...]

Ben Affleck casts himself in his upcoming political thriller, Argo

Tuesday, June 28th, 2011

Posted by: Zack Bruce There’s no denying Ben Affleck’s skills behind the camera. He’s only done two major features, GONE BABY GONE and THE TOWN, but they show a promise for what’s to come. Affleck’s next film, ARGO is already sounding like something great. The plot centers on, “a CIA agent who concocts a story [...]

Alan Arkin the first to join Argo for director Ben Affleck

Saturday, June 11th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant It’s still hard to get used to the notion that Ben Affleck is a director now, but even harder to get used to the fact that he’s actually a great director.  After GONE BABY GONE and THE TOWN, he’s officially on my list of must-see directors.  Next up for Mr. Affleck [...]
