More set photos from Martin Scorsese’s upcoming film THE WOLF OF WALL STREET have been released and we are getting another shot of Leonardo DiCaprio as Jordan Belfort who looks eager and full of youthful exuberance. We’re also getting a look at Matthew McConaughey who plays Mark Hanna, Belfort’s mentor, and poor McConaughey looks gaunt [...]

One has to give Matthew McConaughey (or his agent and PR firm) credit as he has been lining up film after film these past couple of years. It should also be noted that these Matthew McConaughey films are pretty good and may let audiences forget such bombs like GHOST OF GIRLFRIENDS PAST and FOOL’S GOLD. [...]

Extracting intriguing plot points from the framework of a pro sport’s story is not exactly asking the impossible. Those kinds of tales pretty much write their own first drafts and the most difficult portion of filming is trying to mirror the authenticity of the real-life action in the game. However, when the game gets smaller, [...]

The cast for Martin Scorsese’s THE WOLF OF WALL STREET is shaping up quite nicely. In the film, Leonardo DiCaprio plays Jordan Belfort, a New York stock broker who’s life is destroyed by sex, drugs and alcohol, but who became more famous for what he didn’t do, which is testify in a federal investigation. In [...]

Recently starring in the Broadway production of “Once”, Cristin Milioti will finish up her stint on stage and then join [...]

Jean Dujardin may be a huge star in his native country, France, but it takes more than one Oscar win and one successful movie to make it in Hollywood. So after recently signing with a major talent agency, it seems Jean Dujardin is serious about making sure American audiences don’t forget about him and has [...]

Jonah Hill has officially crossed the border from straight-up comedic actor to a well-rounded respected actor. He was on the verge of this with his role in MONEYBALL, but Jonah Hill just secured his position when he signed on to star alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Martin Scorsese’s upcoming drama THE WOLF OF WALL STREET. Congratulations [...]

There’s little to no debate as to which actor-director duo is the best of our generation. That honor clearly belongs to Leonardo DiCaprio and martin Scorsese. The dynamic duo have worked together four times with their movies generating a whopping 26 Academy Award nominations (although no wins for Leonardo DiCaprio); GANGS OF NEW YORK (10), [...]

Well if you have been reading the rest of my predictions, it should be no secret what I believe will be winning the top award of the night. In probably one of the more decided victories in recent years, I still always leave a little uncertainty in my head for a possible upset. But I [...]

The 84th Annual Academy Awards nominations have been announced and the nominations fell where most of us thought they would. The Best Picture race seems to be down to two, with HUGO gaining steam as it took in 11 nominations, the most overall. But THE ARTIST managed 10 nominations on its own, keeping its hopes [...]

Posted by: Zack Bruce It’s kind of hard to not be on the Martin Scorsese bandwagon. If this guy makes a movie, I want to see it. I don’t care what it is. He could fully adapt an old episode of THE SNORKS and I would be there on opening day. I’m not even kidding. [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Much like I can’t seem to get into Steven Spielberg’s THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN, I just can’t seem to get into Martin Scorsese’s HUGO. I’m not sure what it is, but neither story interests me and neither of the trailers we’ve seen so far from HUGO have convinced me this is [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant The dynamic duo of director Martin Scorsese and actor Leonardo DiCaprio (GANGS OF NEW YORK, THE AVIATOR, THE DEPARTED, SHUTTER ISLAND) are set to strike again with the remake of the 1974 film THE GAMBLER. The film was originally directed by Karel Reisz and starred James Caan. The film is about [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I really had no interest in Martin Scorsese’s live action adaptation of Brian Selznick’s novel ‘The Invention of Hugo Cabret’ (changed to “HUGO” for the short-attention span moviegoers), but after watching the trailer, it looks like it will be a fun adventure for the whole family. And I know that sounds [...]

Posted by: Zack Bruce Martin Scorsese is covering two new territories for his next film, HUGO: family films and 3D. I never thought in a million years that either thing would happen, especially the 3D part. However, Scorsese is a master of his craft so whatever he decides to put his talent towards, it should [...]

V-J Day. The end of World War II. Dancing in the streets of New York. With this incredible power the film opens, and we’re transported to a different world. This movie, like much of Scorsese’s works, is a love letter to film, New York City, and a different era. But where his other films are [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Originally, the film THE COMEDIAN was going to star Robert De Niro and be directed by Martin Scorsese and upon hearing that, everyone conjured up visions of THE KING OF COMEDY. Although that film has its fans, I personally consider it Martin Scorsese’s worst film and one of the worst of [...]

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant One of the projects we’ve heard about off and on over the last year is the Leonardo DiCaprio film THE WOLF OF WALL STREET. Which follows “a drug-, alcohol-, and sex-addicted brokerage firm operator’s rise and fall — from multi-millionaire twenty-something in the go-go eighties to federal-convict thirty-something banned from the [...]

“You talkin’ to me?” is one of the most iconic lines in film history. The scene consists simply of Robert De Niro talking to himself, standing in front of a mirror fantasizing about pulling a gun on someone. It is a great memorable scene but definitely not flashy, much like the overall tone of this [...]

Reviewing films that have become iconic and considered a classic among the large population is always an interesting task. Am I really going to have an insight that has yet to be said or even cared about? RAGING BULL is an amazing piece of work that is technically superior in achievement. See nothing new there. [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Before you start salivating at the idea of having Al Pacino, Joe Pesci and Robert De Niro starring in a movie directed by Martin Scorsese, please keep in mind that this is all in the early stages of development right now.

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I can’t say I was impressed with Leonardo DiCaprio’s last effort with director Ridley Scott. He did well in BODY OF LIES, but the movie went nowhere. Hopefully, the duo can do better with the Jordan Belfort biopic THE WOLF OF WALL STREET. Belfort, in case you didn’t know, is most [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Remember when Jude Law was starring in almost every movie? I can’t remember what movies they were, but I do remember Chris Rock making fun of that at the Oscars and then Sean Penn getting upset. Ahhh, those were the days.

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Our review will post Monday, but I’ll give you a preview; COP OUT was terrible. Even still, I’m surprised it didn’t manage a better showing, but given the lame previews and the fact the movie wasn’t very good, I guess $18.5 million isn’t bad for a Kevin Smith film. I think [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant The often delayed SHUTTER ISLAND turned out to be a hit after all. The Leonardo DiCaprio thriller raked in over $40 million at the box office, giving it a very impressive opening day weekend and more than good enough to beat out last week’s #1, VALENTINE’S DAY. In what should come [...]

Most would agree that the era of the suspense thriller really hit its peak with the Hitchcock movies of yesteryear. With Martin Scorsese’s love of movies, he undoubtedly spent much time watching these tense mind-benders from ROPE (1948), to REAR WINDOW (1954), to VERTIGO (1958) – I have always been partial to the Jimmy Stewart [...]
