Three Clips from ‘Youth in Revolt’
— by SEAN GERSKI — Michael Cera is really good at playing the socially-awkward nebbish. So good, in fact, that he is in danger of being inescapably stereotyped in the role. In his upcoming movie, “Youth in Revolt,” Cera adds another film to his resume in which he plays this[...]
Three Scenes from ‘Nativity!’
— by SEAN GERSKI — With the lack of Christmas movies this year, the time would have been right to get “Nativity!” in theaters in America. Unfortunately, that isn’t happening — instead the movie is the private joy of oversea audiences. (And I know that[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘The Karate Kid’
— by SEAN GERSKI — Getting a movie made in Hollywood is a very difficult thing to do — especially these days — so you really have to wonder how some of the movies being made now get greenlit. Out of all of the people involved, wasn’t there one person who could have said[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘The Bounty Hunter’
— by SEAN GERSKI — It seems like one of the most fun jobs in Hollywood would be casting the lead roles of a movie like this. I mean, let’s be honest, there are practically an infinite number of actors and actresses who could take on these roles. There are some movies you watch and [...]
Poster Peek: ‘Knight and Day’
— by SEAN GERSKI — There are people who will try to tell you that Tom Cruise is no longer a big movie star. Don’t buy it. If you want to play a fun game, listen when directors, other actors or movie studio executives talk about movies. Whenever they need to reference a movie star[...]
Batman Set to Face ‘The Red Hood’
— by SEAN GERSKI — According to Comics2Film at Mania.com, the next DC Universe animated feature film project has been announced. To the surprise of very few, it is a Batman story. However, what is surprising is the story they chose. Rumors had swirled[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Under Great White Northern Lights’
— by SEAN GERSKI — Quite honestly, there aren’t too many bands around that would interest me enough to watch a full-length documentary. I am talking independently of the music, of course. There are many, many bands I love. But there are precious few that I would want to spend[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘When in Rome’
— by SEAN GERSKI — I’m of two minds about “When in Rome.” On the one hand, it looks like it has every chance of being terrible. I mean, let’s be honest, the only thing keeping this from being a Lifetime movie is the star power involved. On the other hand, it[...]
Under Review: ‘Tick Tock’
— by SEAN GERSKI — Despite clocking in at less than 10 minutes long, “Tick Tock” still tells a full story. Unlike some short films, however, it never feels rushed or pressed for time. Also, unlike many feature-length films, it doesn’t feel stretched out. It is a story[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Hot Tub Time Machine’
— by SEAN GERSKI — Not unlike many people of my generation, John Cusack has always been one of my favorite actors, but it has been quite some time since he has done a movie that I can truly be excited about. Now, with next year’s “Hot Tub Time Machine,” Cusack is[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Robin Hood’
— by SEAN GERSKI — The new international trailer is out for Ridley Scott’s “Robin Hood” and while I hear people comparing it to “Gladiator,” it reminds me far more of Clive Owen’s “King Arthur” from a few years back. In fact, it really does[...]
‘Lord of the Rings’ Headed to Blu-Ray, But …
— by SEAN GERSKI — If you have a blu-ray player and a really nice TV, this is something you will definitely want to think about picking up. Of all of the movies available to show off your system, there aren’t too many that can outshine The “Lord of the Rings” trilogy[...]
