The Insider Blu-ray Review

Thursday, March 7th, 2013

Russell Crowe may have won an Oscar in 2000 for GLADIATOR and then nominated again in 2001 for A BEAUTIFUL MIND, but in my opinion, his most impressive role was that of Jeffrey Wigand in 1999’s THE INSIDER.  Aided greatly by Michael Mann’s trademarked stylish direction, THE INSIDER is a wonderful film that eats at [...]

Jean Dujardin and Viola Davis are the smart bets to take home Oscars

Thursday, February 23rd, 2012

Many might say they care about best picture but in reality everyone watches for the actors.  The glitz, the glam and the biggest names in Hollywood hanging out is like a live action gossip magazine.  Although I may adore the Oscars, I can’t stand most of the speeches.  I cringe almost everytime with embarrassment for [...]

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, starring Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig, coming to Blu-ray in March

Monday, February 13th, 2012

Although it looks like Rooney Mara might lose out on the Best Actress Academy Award this year to either Meryl Streep or Michelle Williams, her performance in THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO shouldn’t be missed.  If you didn’t see it in theaters, then you can pick it up on Blu-ray on March 20th.  The [...]

George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Michelle Williams should all expect Academy Award nominations on January 24th

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012

As we get closer to the Academy Award nominations I thought I would give a prediction of the Oscar Nominees before I get angry at who is nominated, call out who got the shaft and finally predict the actual winners.  Most of the different critics awards have been given out and some of the major [...]

George Clooney, Kirsten Dunst and The Descendants get top honors from the Kansas City Film Critics

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

The Kansas City Film Critics Circle gave out their 2011 film awards Sunday night.  As a member I had the privilege of voting and being a part of the process.  Overall, I’m happy with our decisions, specifically the love towards THE TREE OF LIFE with Supporting Actress going to Jessica Chastain and Best Director going [...]

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

Based on the best selling novels by Stieg Larsson, THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATOO is clearly and rightfully an intriguing story to audiences.  The Swedish version directed by Niels Arden Oplev in 2009 was a very good film but David Fincher has turned around and made it great. After being wrongfully convicted in a [...]

Rooney Mara, as Lisbeth Salander, is featured heavily in a new TV spot for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Monday, November 14th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Most of what we’ve seen so far from David Fincher’s THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO has focused heavily on the story and Daniel Craig, with Rooney Mara’s Lisbeth Salander in almost a supporting role.  But the new 1-minute TV spot is all about our favorite Goth-hacker and if you had [...]

Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig in new TV spots for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Tuesday, November 8th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I don’t typically post TV spots since they’re usually less than 30 seconds long and don’t do much for me.  But in the case of THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO, I just can’t get enough, so I have to post two new TV spots that started airing last week.  There’s [...]

Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig get big heads in the Australian poster for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Friday, November 4th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I know you were probably finishing up lunch this afternoon and were thinking to yourself that you just haven’t seen enough promotional material for THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO.  Well, I’m here to fix that with a look at the Australian poster for David Fincher’s upcoming English language remake.  It’s [...]

Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig in several new images from The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Monday, October 31st, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant We have less than two months before we find out if David Fincher’s English language remake of THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO is as good as we all think/hope it’s going to be.  Will Rooney Mara be as good as Noomi Rapace in the role of Lisbeth Salander?  That’s probably [...]

Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig are one in the new poster for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant In case you haven’t gotten enough from David Fincher’s THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO, here’s the final (note: “final” as in, with credits.  I doubt it will be the last poster) one-sheet for the highly anticipated film.  The design is from Neil Kellerhouse and although it’s original, I’m not sure [...]

Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig in more photos from The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Thursday, August 25th, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant More photos have been released for the upcoming remake of THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO from director David Fincher. Below you can see a couple images of Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara) and Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig), Lisbeth is up in someone’s face and then you have Mikael hanging out in [...]

Paul Bettany and Karl Urban in the Priest trailer #2

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant I like Paul Bettany and I wish he was a bigger contender in Tinsel Town, but I can’t help but think if he didn’t take such weird religious roles he would do a lot better. Last year was LEGION, which was corny and dumb and now we have the upcoming film [...]

Christopher Plummer joins Daniel Craig and Rooney Mara in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant When I first heard about THE SOCIAL NETWORK, I scoffed.  I like David Fincher, but I didn’t think he could make a movie about the origins of Facebook interesting.  Boy, was I wrong.  So even though I initially scoffed at David Fincher tackling an English remake of THE GIRL WITH THE [...]

The Last Station coming to Blu-ray on June 22nd

Monday, April 26th, 2010

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant The Sony Pictures Home Entertainment film THE LAST STATION will be coming to Blu-ray on June 22, 2010.  The film follows the final year of famous Russian writer Leo Tolstoy (Christopher Plummer).  During the final year his wife, Sofya Tolstoy (Helen Mirren), tries to regain the rights and property of Tolstoy’s [...]

Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

Prior to his passing, Heath Ledger favored more independent features with bold characters even though he had a natural appeal to big budget, formulaic films. From his choices (MONSTER’S BALL, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN, I’M NOT THERE) one can easily tell he was interested more in the acting craft than in becoming the next hot, young celebrity. [...]

Up

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

I’d have loved to see the faces on the executives when Pete Docter told them the protagonist for his film was Carl Frederickson, an old man escaping forced placement into a retirement home. I’m not sure if “WTF” has an official face yet, but if it does, I’m sure they made it. The questions they [...]
