Remakes aren’t always a bad thing, especially when a film is being remade from one language to another. Americans don’t like subtitles and our foreign brethren make a ton of great movies every year, so there’s always plenty of material to choose from. The next foreign film on the list to go through the American [...]

Baz Luhrmann is a visionary artist that definitely has a unique stamp on his work. STRICTLY BALLROOM was light-hearted fun, ROMEO + JULIET was an unexpected breath of fresh air in a played out genre, and MOULIN ROUGE was an underrated crowning achievement that rejuvenated and reinvented not only musicals but film in general. Unfortunately, [...]

JANE GOT A GUN has gone through more cast and crew changes than any film of recent history. After news recently broke that Bradley Cooper had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts, the indie western film wasted no time in finding a replacement for its villain in none other than Ewan McGregor. I find [...]

I hadn’t thought of it since I started writing this, but I think this new international trailer for THE GREAT GATSBY must be the 6th or 7th trailer for the film we’ve seen. And once again, we get a lot of hip music, fast editing and plenty of Leonardo DiCaprio looking very intense, Tobey Maguire [...]

Last week, we got individual character posters for Baz Luhrmann’s THE GREAT GATSBY. We also got another trailer for the film, featuring new music from Beyonce and Andre 3000. And today we get a look at the final one-sheet for the film, featuring some PhotoShopped cut-outs of Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan and the rest of [...]

To recap, the film JANE GOT A GUN was an intriguing project when it was going to be directed by Lynne Ramsay and starring Natalie Portman, Michael Fassbender and Joel Edgerton. But then Jude Law replaced Fassbender and Lynne Ramsay decided she didn’t want to show up on the first day of shooting and the [...]

I think Baz Luhrmann has changed F. Scott Fitgerald’s classic novel, THE GREAT GATSBY, so much that it’s almost a misnomer to call this a remake of Robert Redford’s 1974 film. If you weren’t already convinced that the infusion of modern hip hop with old timey, post-war upper class was going to work, then check [...]

I have nothing against Jude Law. In fact, I think he’s one of the most underrated actors in Hollywood and he’s one of the few guys that turns in consistently great performances. However, he’s not Michael Fassbender and although Jude Law is a decent replacement, I can’t help but be less excited about JANE GOT [...]

Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has officially announced that Kathryn Bigelow’s ZERO DARK THIRTY is coming to Blu-ray and DVD on March 19th. I’ve always wondered why films don’t capitalize on their Oscar buzz by releasing their films on Blu-ray the week before or the week after the telecast. But between ZERO DARK THIRTY and LES [...]

Following the tragic September 11, 2001 attack on the Twin Towers, ZERO DARK THIRTY explores the decade long hunt for the man responsible for the evil. Every behind-the-scene detail becomes a riveting exercise in anticipation and personal vengeance. Naturally, ZERO DARK THIRTY is a film that nearly all Americans will get behind because we felt [...]

The race for the lead role of Peter Quill in Marvel’s GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY just got a little more interesting as Joseph Gordon-Levitt has joined the mix. It was believed that the lead was narrowed down to Joel Edgerton, Jack Huston (‘Boardwalk Empire’ and the new Guiness Black commercials), Jim Sturgess, Lee Pace and [...]

When I first learned of the rumor that Jay-Z was going to be scoring the music for Baz Luhrmann’s THE GREAT GATSBY, I was a little shocked. But then I sat and thought about it and realized that it’s not such a stretch for a famous musician to cross over into composing scores for movies. [...]

Barely five seconds go by in the latest trailer for THE GREAT GATSBY where you don’t instantly recognize this as a Baz Luhrmann film. I still think the use of the Jay-Z/Kanye song in the beginning is distracting, but by the time Filter’s rendition of the classic Turtles song, ‘Happy Together’ starts blaring, it feels [...]

Imagine (figuratively, of course) that someone had a giant ball of emotion and sappiness and was cramming it unwillingly down your throat for 105 minutes without ever giving you a chance to catch your breath. That’s what it’s like watching Disney’s THE ODD LIFE OF TIMOTHY GREEN. The film is so obsessed with trying to [...]

If you haven’t heard, Kathryn Bigelow’s upcoming film ZERO DARK THIRTY has been getting rave reviews and has even won a couple of Best Picture awards from some critic’s societies.

Since breaking onto the scene with ANIMAL KINGDOM, Joel Edgerton has been putting together quite a resume. He starred in WARRIOR, which was one my favorite films last year. This year, he had the ill-received THE ODD LIFE OF TIMOTHY GREEN, but came back strong with what might be the Oscar favorite in ZERO DARK [...]

A new trailer has been released for director Kathryn Bigelow’s second film ZERO DARK THIRTY, and I have to admit this trailer makes the movie look way more interesting…and intense. It looks like Jessica Chastain (LAWLESS) and Joel Edgerton (WARRIOR) are at their best, but I’m still a little hesitant to get too excited. I [...]

It’s nice to see Leonardo DiCaprio [...]

The internet has been so focused on Leonardo DiCaprio‘s performance in Quentin Tarantino’s DJANGO UNCHAINED that I’ve almost forgotten he has another high profile movie on the way this year, reteaming with his ROMEO & JULIET director Baz Luhrman in THE GREAT GATSBY.

Even though his resume is relatively short, Baz Luhrmann is probably in my top five list of favorite directors. His films are always imaginative, over the top and are just plain fun to watch. Even if you don’t really enjoy the story or actual film (i.e. AUSTRALIA) the experience itself is just breath taking. Oh, [...]

I assume audiences skipped out on WARRIOR because they were sick of Hollywood’s obsession with boxing/fighting. Or maybe general audiences just don’t know enough about MMA fighting to want to see it in a movie. Or maybe Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton aren’t big enough stars yet to fill theater seats. Whatever the reasons WARRIOR [...]

Gripping my chair, grinding my teeth and occasionally doing my best (but failing) to hold back tears, WARRIOR exquisitely balances tension and emotion in a magnitude unmatched.
