The debut film of fashion designer Tom Ford, A Single Man, which is an adaptation of a 1964 novel of the same name by author Chistopher Isherwood (I had no idea of that) has been garnering tons of praise and even if the film doesn’t connect on an emotional level–which I don’t think is the case here–it sure will look [...]

It is safe to say that my anticipation for the film adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s masterful novel The Road has reached fever pitch. There’s absolutely no other movie left on the 2009 Calendar that I’m looking forward to more.
The movie was supposed to come out over a year ago and though I usually hate delays, this [...]

This first *teaser* trailer of Clash of the Titans bares very little resemblance to the original–which I have to rewatch again, it’s been like 20 years? and I was 7? 8? I barely remember much past Medusa and the mechanical owl, which I believe I wanted as a toy for Xmas.
Of course with like with [...]

National Treasure+Pirates of the Caribean+The Mummy+a pinch of Alexander=Prince of Persia.
Wow, you can REALLY tell when a movie is from Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer can you not?
Every part of the sets, locations, etc., look pristine even the “dirty” places, the trailer attacks us with so much relentless action that has 0% real violence or even danger [...]

This is the movie that was going to be a vehicle for Tom Cruise and then rewritten for Angeline Jolie….. and we the public are the winners of this switch. Gotta say though, I don’t blame Tom for dropping out if that was the case, I mean it does resembles his Minority Report a bit [...]

I don’t really get all excited about Dreamworks animated movies. For every 10 movies they put out, I like probably 3 or 4, and though this one could go either way, I’m more inclined to give it a chance because it features…….. Dragons!! Ha! And you know I can’t resist.

I have no idea what this is about, there are no clues in this teaser, etc., all I know is that I want to know/see more of it.
From Christopher Nolan and with a solid-gold cast…..with the exception of the insufferable Ellen Page that is.

(Incoming) January: Dumping Ground for Bad Movies or Hollywood’s New Home For Hits?
Something rather strange happened a few weeks ago when I saw The Box–which I still think is a very creepy, interesting, solid movie no matter how many people supposedly hated it. Hopefully it would find its audience on DVD. But I digress….
After 15 minutes of preview after preview one thing glaringly stood out to me [...]
