For a guy that really hasn’t established himself as a true box office draw, Zac Efron sure does have a lot of projects lined up. Among them, the thriller AUTOBAHN with Amber Heard, the supernatural thriller THE FALLING, the JFK assassination project PARKLAND, the romantic comedy ARE WE OFFICIALLY DATING, the comedy TOWNIES and the [...]

I know he’s adored by HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL fans everywhere, so at the risk of sounding like a pre-teen girl, I still don’t feel Zac Efron is as big of a star as he should be. The guy has a lot of charm and charisma and I’ve been impressed with just about everything he’s been [...]

I just realized I have never seen a Zac Efron movie. You would think as a film critic who sees hundreds of films a year, I would have accidentally seen one of these. I have nothing against the guy, I just happened to have missed HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 1,2 and 3, HAIRSPRAY, 17 AGAIN, CHARLIE [...]

Finally a new trailer has been released for the upcoming drama AT ANY PRICE and though I initially thought the film would be pretty bland this trailer has me interested. Starring Dennis Quaid and Zac Efron as father and son, the film follows the two’s relationship as the father is trying to save his farm [...]

You may remember way back in August when we reported that Tom Hanks was producing a film about the JFK assassination called PARKLAND. Well, news is heating up as today it’s been reported that Zac Efron (THE PAPERBOY, HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL) has signed on to join the film and will portray Dr. Charles ‘Jim’ Carrico. [...]

A new batch of photos from the upcoming family drama AT ANY PRICE have been released and if you just can’t get enough of Zac Efron, Dennis Quaid or Kim Dickens then I think you’ll be happy with these images. AT ANY PRICE was shown this year at three festivals (Venice, Telluride and the Toronto [...]

It seemed like Zac Efron had disappeared for a while in 2010 and 2011, only to come back strong with a string of heavy-hearted films, most recently starring in the Nicolas Sparks adaptation THE LUCKY ONE. Then he’ll get peed on (which should be concerning when that’s the only thing people remember from the film) [...]

In 2010 Josh Radnor made his directorial debut with HAPPYTHANKYOUMOREPLEASE which was a quirky indie comedy that won him the Sundance Audience Award that year. Now he’s back with his second film, LIBERAL ARTS, and has managed to snag one of the up-and-coming actresses in Elizabeth Olsen. Elizabeth Olsen has really hit the ground running [...]

A new trailer for director Lee Daniels’ film THE PAPERBOY has just been released and it looks alright. It will probably require a couple of viewings in order to get past the southern accents all the actors are speaking in but there’s nothing wrong with that. In fact, Zac Efron, Nicole Kidman, John Cusack and [...]

Zac Efron has been taking measures to juice up his resume the last couple of years by taking dramatic roles and breaking out of his HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL persona. This year he has taken roles in LIBERAL ARTS, THE LUCKY ONE, THE PAPERBOY and the upcoming Ramin Bahrani directed film AT ANY PRICE. AT ANY [...]

About two years ago, Shia LaBeouf was set to star in the drama THE NECESSARY DEATH OF CHARLIE COUNTRYMAN. But as with many attachments, Shia became unattached and the film picked up another lead in the form of Zac Efron. Well, another year later and the project is right back in the hands of Shia [...]

Up until this poster, the biggest thing about Lee Daniels’s PAPERBOY was how many people have been attached to it at one point or another. But many fans are excited to see what he does with his follow up to PRECIOUS: BASED ON THE NOVEL BY SAPPHIRE. The film is about a Miami reporter that [...]

Posted by: Zack Bruce There’s no amount of marketing that can get me to go see NEW YEAR’S EVE. It has nothing to do with the fact that it’s a romantic comedy. It has to do with the fact that it looks pointless and bland. While I’ve mentioned before that a trailer usually does no [...]

Posted by: Zack Bruce I have zero interest in seeing NEW YEAR’S EVE. Just because you add a ton of relevant (or semi-relevant) stars to a movie doesn’t mean that it will automatically be good. NEW YEAR’S EVE is basically a bunch of stories revolving around the celebration before the New Year. The stories will [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Zac Efron is the kind of star that’s made for a Nicholas Sparks adaptation. Efron has a tendency to look like he’s about to cry, even when he’s happy. So that overly dramatic feel will serve him well in what is presumably an overly sappy Sparks novel. In THE LUCKY ONE, [...]
