Lots of people know the story of Bonnie and Clyde.

Considerably fewer know the story of the Texas Rangers who brought them down.

Netflix’s The Highwaymen – an official selection of SXSW 20149 – opens in select theaters on March 15th before premiering on Netflix on March 29th.

McFarland, USA – Running into the Heart of America!

McFARLAND

Yes, it’s a sports movie. And yes, there’s a ‘Big Race.’ But MacFarland USA is not just another sports movie. It’s a story of families – the ones we’re born into; the ones we build around us in our communities, and the ones that expand beyond even that.

2015 Movie Awards

2015 Critics’ Choice Awards – More Perceptive Than The Oscars®?

Birdman

Some Oscar® wrongs were at least partially (and in two cases, totally) righted at the 2015 Critics’ Choice Awards. Selma, for example, at least got more nominations; The LEGO Movie won Best Animated Feature, and Birdman Or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) won for Score (while being not being considered at all for that award by Oscar®).

Birdman wound up with seven awards – including two for Michael Keaton (Best Actor in a Comedy and Best Actor); Boyhood got four (Best Director, Best Young Actor, Supporting Actress and Best Picture), and The Grand Budapest Hotel got three (Best Comedy, Best Art Direction, Best Costume Design).

This year’s Louis XIII Genius Award went to Ron Howard; the Lifetime Achievement Award was given to Kevin Costner and the very first MVP Award (for the most prodigious body of work over the last year) went to Jessica Chastain.

Host Michael Stahan (Live with Kelly and Michael) struggled a bit with his opening monologue, but got stronger as the night went on. The complete list of winners follow the jump.

Draft Day Movie Review – Enjoyable, but Forgettable. Michelle’s Review

Draft-Day-Movie-Poster

A lot of folks have been talking about the reinvention of Mathew McConaughey AKA the McConaissance, but what about the recent return of the never aging Kevin Costner? After disappearing for a few years, he’s on the come back trail. In his latest, Draft Day, he returns to a genre he’s synonymous with– the Sports Movie.

Draft Day is a Definite First Round Pick!

DRAFT DAY

Kevin Costner has turned in some really good performances lately – in films ranging from forgettable to enjoyable to delightful. His best – and the best of his films in a while – is the beleaguered but savvy general manager of the Cleveland Browns in Draft Day. Like Moneyball, it’s a sports film that’s less about the sport than the behind-the-scenes business. It’s also corn, but really prime corn.

3 Days to Kill: McG Takes Besson’s Tendency to the Absurd and Makes It Sing!

Costner

3 Days to Kill may be directed by McG, but at its heart, it’s the combination of heart and absurdity that has become the hallmark of Luc Besson, co-author of the script and one of the film’s producers. Sometimes that mix works (The Professional, La Femme Nikita, Fifth Element) and sometimes, not so much (The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc, Taken 2). Thanks to a stellar cast and McG’s energetic direction, 3 Days to Kill is great fun.

BLU-RAY REVIEW: Robin Hood Prince of Thieves

Robin Hood Prince of Thieves Blu-ray

When I heard that Warner Home Video was putting Robin Hood Prince of Thieves on the big Blu-ray I was excited. I’m a sucker for the Swashbuckling genre and love every version of Robin Hood there is, including this much maligned version. Everyone seems to focus on Costner’s accent when they complain about the movie, but it didn’t bother me. I don’t go into a film like this expecting proper English Accents, actually that’s half the fun of a movie like this, trying to pick out Extras who are wearing sneakers or watches on people. I’m not saying this movie has that, but it’s not a historical document.  The cast for the most part is great, Alan Rickman as an over the top Sheriff Nottingham makes me laugh, I still love the Arrow Cam (it’s amazing the effect hasn’t been properly duplicated, even after all this time) and the theme song “Everything I Do, I Do It For You,” by Brian Adams is still pretty amazing – when you hear it in the movie. It sucks on the radio.
