You will, almost certainly, read elsewhere that Denis Villeneuve’s film Prisoners is a revenge movie. Since vengeance cannot be enacted without there being some kind of finality to the original crime, I’m not quite how that would work. Rather, Prisoners is a psychological thriller with some nasty violence – a film that explores the depths […]

Heavyweight Trailer: Grudge Match!
Imagine the ultimate movie boxing match: Rocky vs. The Raging Bull. Now think of them as thirty years past their prime. In a nutshell, that’s Warner Brothers’ Grudge Match – the Expendables of sports movies. Billy ‘The Kid’ McDonnen (Robert DeNiro) and Henry ‘Razor’ Sharp (Sylvester Stallone) fought twice back in the day, each winning […]
Chilling Trailer: Gravity
There’s a new trailer for Alfonso Cuaron’s Gravity. It focuses on Sandra Bullock’s character, Dr. Ryan Stone – practically getting inside her spacesuit. It’s absolutely breathtaking – and chilling. Check it out after the jump. Gravity opens October 4th.
Getaway Is Awful!
Surprise! Selena Gomez can act! Bigger (or lesser, depending on your point of view) surprise – it doesn’t matter because Getaway is so far beyond awful that it even fails to be bad enough to be good.
Batman vs. Superman = Ben Affleck vs. Henry Cavill!
Batman vs. Superman has its Dark Knight – Ben Affleck! The Warner Brothers press release follows the jump. Batman vs. Superman is slated to open worldwide on July 15, 2015.

Twistedly Romantic Trailer: Her!
Trust Spike Jonze to find a way to bring a breath of fresh air to the romantic drama – a man falls in love with an artificial intelligence, think Siri MK XXV, named Samantha. It helps that the guy is played by Joaquin Phoenic and Samantha’s voice is provided by Scarlet Johannson – and that […]
First Look: Veronica Mars The Movie – Heads Up Marshmallows!
Last night, Rob Thomas unveiled footage from the Kickstarter-funded Veronica Mars movie at Comic-Con 2013. It takes a walk down memory lane, looking at the TV series, the Kickstarter campaign and – for the first time – footage from the movie. Heads up, Marshmallows – it’s all yours after the jump!
Pacific Rim is HUGE Fun!
Even if you don’t love Kaiju movies, Pacific Rim is a delight. Sure it’s got the biggest monsters ever fighting the biggest mecha ever, but that’s not all (though for a lot of Kaiju movie fans it might be enough). It also has characters who feel real; a world that looks right, and 3D that […]
Seventh Son Trailer–Jeff Bridges Goes Sword & Sorcery!
The news that Legendary Pictures has signed a deal with NBCUniversal makes Seventh son the last film for which they’ll partner with Warner Brothers. The fantasy movie stars Ben Barnes as Tom Ward, a seventh son of a seventh son and therefore destined to save humanity from evil. Jeff Bridges is Tom’s mentor, Master Gregory, […]
Pacific Rim: Final Trailer & Cool Kaiju Featurette!
To me it’s just crazy that Guillermo Del Toro’s labor of love monster movie, Pacific Rim, isn’t tearing up the internet – especially since each new trailer and featurette has delved more deeply into the world of kaijus and mechas that he has created in such detail. Pacific Rim’s final trailer and a great new […]
