From Paris With Love

From Paris with Love is perfect popcorn fodder - dumb, diverting and surprisingly not dreadful.

Everybody's Fine

This cheesy remake of Stanno Tutti Bene makes Tornatore's soppy original look like The Godfather

The Crazies

Nowt special but The Crazies gives you good scares for your money. And a lot of Timothy Olyphant. He's good for your money too

Capitalism: A Love Story

A rousing call to arms, Capitalism: A Love Story shows Moore is still as polemic & provocative as ever

Solomon Kane

Solomon Kane is small in scale but large in ambition; what it lacks in originality it makes up for with bucket-loads of blood.

The Lovely Bones

With its syrupy score and saccharine script, The Lovely Bones is horribly bloated. It's like having a fat kid sit on your face for two and a half hours.

Crazy Heart

With a stellar, sincere starring role, Crazy Heart is a gentle and moving piece. Proof once and for all that Jeff Bridges makes anything brilliant. Even Country and Western music.

A Single Man

A Single Man matches its polished surface with a sorrowful and deep undercurrent. Simply gorgeous cinema.

Oscar Nominations

No Moon, no Road, no (500) Days of Summer. But we do have The Blind Side up for Best Picture. I blame Sandra Bullock. For everything.

Ponyo

Miyazaki is a wizard, and he uses the old magics – imagination, wonder and joy.

The Princess and the Frog

With fun music and an engaging cast, The Princess and the Frog regains Disney's soul after it was sold for CG farm animals & a shiny Mac

Tron: Legacy Trailer Hits Internet Print E-mail

Well, 8 months after all that Comic-Con excitement, the full trailer for Tron: Legacy has hit the internet. And it's quite spectacular, even if you're not a huge fan of the original Tron - and let's face it, everyone is.


The plot's a lot clearer now, too, with Garrett Hedlund confirmed to be Kevin Flynn's son, Sam, a "tech-savvy 27-year-old" who enters the digital world where his father has been for 25 years. With a bit of old and young Jeff Bridges thrown into the mix, this stylish sequel will no doubt have a few more twists in its rescue mission tale - especially with Olivia Wilde as Kevin's confidant Qora.


Boasting newly advanced technology (i.e. more ways to kill you), Tron's world has transformed entirely for our digital age. But it still has the one thing we all want: light bikes. And like a CGI-ed up Jeff Bridges, they look pretty damn sexy.


Read on for the full video, and a few new stills from the film.

OMG, America has no Captain! Call Barack Obama! Oh wait, there's Chris Evans. Maybe he'll do it.


Yes, as Marvel cross Krasinski's name off the list for Joe Johnston's Captain America, the studio add another: Chris Evans.


They're still considering Cloverfield's Mike Vogel and Tron's Garrett Hedlund (and some guy called Wilson Bethel) but Chris Evans isn't a bad fit. No, not the Radio 2 presenter. Yes, the guy who's already been in both of Marvel's Fantastic Four movies. The one with the charm, muscles and good looks.


Nothing has been confirmed yet, despite Joe Johnston's enthusiasm to cast someone as soon as possible. But with Chris Evans up for a screen test very soon after a successful read-through, all that might soon change...

As their planned production date slips ever closer, Sony are now hunting around for a cast for Men in Black 3. Will Smith's Agent J is already there and Josh Brolin looks increasingly likely to play a young Tommy Lee Jones, but what about Yaz? He's a new character. And he may be played by Jermaine Clement.


Yes, Sony are circling Flight of the Conchord's funny man Jermaine for their new Man in Black, with Sacha Baron Cohen also on their wish list. The script, from Tropic Thunder's Etan Cohen, seems promising enough to keep this tired franchise moving forward. But with Clement or Baron Cohen on board, MiB 3 could well mark a return to the first film's form. 


Let's just hope Jermaine's wearing his business socks. Because when he's down to just his socks, you know what time it is: it's business time. Oh yeah...

IRON MAN 2! IRON MAN 2! IRON MAN 2!


Sorry, I'm a little excited by this new trailer. After all the glitz and glamour of the Academy Awards, it's hard to be impressed by another snazzy suit. But this suit belongs to Iron Man. Does your suit fire rockets, fly through the air, and come out of a briefcase? Tony Stark's does. And you can see it in its full-on graphic novel glory in this new trailer.


There are bits we've seen before, with Mickey Rourke's whips, Tony's grand-standing for the crowds, a short sequence at the Monaco Grand Prix. But Sam Rockwell? Scarlett Johansson? The briefcase suit? These are new treats for our retinas. And they look good. Thought you were excited by Iron Man's sequel? In 2 minutes and 28 seconds, you'll be positively gagging for it.

 

 


Read on for the shiny explosive video.

Ridley Rides the 3-D Train Print E-mail

The world was surprised when Ridley Scott announced he would be making another Alien film. But now Shadowlocked have revealed that this prequel will be in 3-D.


Interviewing Roger Christian - art director on Star Wars and Alien, to mention a few - he confirmed to Shadowlocked that Alien would be facehugging their way out of the screen: "Ridley's doing the next Alien in 3D." It sounds like Ridley's next to ride the 3-D gravy train, but Roger isn't concerned:


"Ridley told me some of his ideas. He has a very clear understanding of where this should go. They kind of stopped dead one of the greatest horror franchises there's ever been, and it had legs to go on. So I'm hoping he'll revive another three."


Now Roger isn't officially involved in Alien 5 - expect that to change soon - but he's clearly excited about the prospect of 3-D Aliens. Then again, it's hard not to be intrigued by the potential blend of HR Giger's freaky nightmares and the studio's three-dimensional money making. "If ever I went back to designing, the only film I would ever want to design is Alien, if Ridley re-did it." That whole immersive argument ain't entirely convincing, but if Ridley gets Roger on board, maybe we might have something good on our hands.

 
Oscars 2010: The Winners Print E-mail

Well, the stars were out in force, dresses and statues in tow, and overall the Academy Awards went to the right people. Sure, Colin Firth and Carey Mulligan didn't win, but they were never going to. The award everyone was watching out for was Best Film. Would it go to Avatar or The Hurt Locker? Well, the answer was a pretty resounding Hurt Locker.


Yes, the Oscars this year showed that money can't buy you awards (although it can buy you a lot of blue people), as Kathryn Bigelow walked away with a well-deserved and historic win for Best Director, as well as taking the Best Film Oscar too. Picking up technical nominations like Editing and Sound along the way, everything was pointing towards a clean sweep of the board. And it pretty much was.


The others all went as expected, with the major surprise being Best Foreign Language Film, which went to The Secret in Their Eyes instead of A Prophet or even The White Ribbon. And despite Jason Reitman's wins at other ceremonies, Best Adapted Screenplay chose Geoffrey Fletcher's full-on adaptation of Precious (Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire) instead. Maybe it was the title that did it.


Read on for a full list of this year's winners.

Director: Tim Burton
Cast: Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Mia Wasikowska, Alan Rickman, Crispin Glover, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen
Certificate: PG
Trailer

Lewis Carroll's loopy classic gets a Tim Burton tinkering in this unfamiliar take on a family favourite. Alice (Wasikowska) is a girl on the brink of a marriage proposal - from a snobby idiot with red hair. Now 19, she's a strange creature, at odds with society. Convinced her half-forgotten childhood trip to Wonderland was all a dream, she soon falls back down the same rabbit hole to a very different place. This isn't Lewis Carroll's Wonderland. Oh no. This is Tim Burton's Underland.
