There seems to be a lot of comedies focusing on the Apocalypse these days. This summer, we will get two in the Seth Rogen directed THIS IS THE END and RAPTURE-PALOOZA. While THIS IS THE END seems to be more of PINEAPPLE EXPRESS meets END OF DAYS, RAPTURE-PALOOZA looks like a combination of ZOMBIELAND meets THE STAND.
This red band trailer for RAPTURE-PALOOZA turns up the profanity...
I still have yet to see PITCH PERFECT, the college-age Glee pic starring Anna Kendrick , Rebel Wison, Brittany Snow , and Anna Camp, but it ended up being a pretty big hit for the intended demographic (a sequel is currently in the works). In the film, Kendrick's character performs an a capella version of Lulu and the Lampshade’s “You’re Gonna Miss Me" which has spawned a cavalcade of...
PLOT: A public interest lawyer's world is turned upside down when a young reporter unearths his past as a former 1970s antiwar radical fugitive wanted for murder. After living for more than 30 years underground, he must now go on the run and track down old associates to escape the manhunt that ensues.
REVIEW: THE COMPANY YOU KEEP is the movie you take your folks to see. Armed...
No, this is not a movie with Shia LaBeouf doing shit Punisher style or anything like that. Instead it's a thriller with Robert Redford , who looks to be doing most of the action.
I've been hearing great things about THE COMPANY YOU KEEP. Definitely worth a watch since we haven't seen Redford do any acting since 2007's LIONS FOR LAMBS. This role looks like a good one to return...
Well, it's almost awards season and that wouldn't be complete without The Golden Razzies. The annual worst-of awards show has announced their nominations for the worst in film for 2012, with THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN (PART 2) leading the pack, garnering a nod in every category. Deservedly so, I think, although I haven't seen the movie. In fact, I usually miss out...
While you slumber away in a turkey-induced coma or prepare to wage battle at your local mall, this video review from Red Letter Media of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN (PART 2) will surely help you pass a little time and offers some unique perspective on the franchise's final chapter. Questions like, "How does Edward get an erection?" and "Where do vampires get X-Men powers?" are...
NOPE.
NOPE.
NOPE.
Look, I understand that it may be "old news" to hate on "THE TWILIGHT SAGA", but it's not like we're disdainful without plenty of just cause. As our own Nick Bosworth points out in the opening of this video that he put together, there are loads of genuine reasons as to why this franchise was both insultingly poor moviemaking and genuinely detrimental to...
PLOT: THE TWILIGHT SAGA comes to a merciful end with this, the conclusion to BREAKING DAWN. After being turned into a vampire while giving birth to Renesmee, Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) find themselves forced into a showdown with the Volturi when a rumour spreads that they've turned a child into a vampire- which is strictly forbidden. Meanwhile, Jacob...
This Friday is a big day for many of you, possibly for very different reasons. Some of you will be dragged, kicking and screaming, or lured willingly and with great excitement, to witness the end of the TWILIGHT saga onscreen. After four years and five movies, the vampire/werewolf/human love triangle series from author Stephanie Meyer will deliver its final chapter, THE TWILIGHT SAGA:...
At the end of the day, despite how much I loved THE DARK KNIGHT RISES , my highlight of the summer movie season was easily PARANORMAN. I'll always hold a deep respect for and fascination with stop-motion, and it didn't hurt that the film was replete with subtle/classy horror references and humor and exciting sequences and beautiful design all while espousing an important message...
Many of you have waited with bated breath to see the epic conclusion to THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN (PART 2), if even just to end the torture of having to endure these films in the theater with your significant other. Now, just to further signify that your journey is nearly complete, we have the FINAL poster for the series, which features the lovestruck vamps and werewolves...
PLOT: An anti-social college freshman reluctantly joins an all-girl a capella group and helps them on their quest to become the number one such group in the country.
REVIEW: A capella singing gets the wry, hip film treatment you been waiting your whole life for in PITCH PERFECT, a predictable crowd-pleaser that is essentially what I assume a feature-length version of a...
