New Movie Friday!

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

Thats right its friday again! That means new movies are in theaters, and it looks like American Gangster is the probable number one. This film stars Russel Crowe and Denzel Washington – both box office powerhouses. However, animated kid flick Bee Movie, which has been promoted extremely heavily by Jerry Seinfeld, could also be the big winner. Kid movie’s equal big bucks, especially when the team that made the Shrek trilogy is involved. So will action or animated win this weekend? Any predictions? In the meantime, check out the trailer to The Forgotten Coast, which will be released on DVD this tuesday!!

New Movie Friday!

Friday, October 26th, 2007

If its Friday in America then you know there’s new movies in the theaters today… So here’s a brief rundown of what you can and should see. First off, if your in the Halloween mood, you can check out Saw 4 - which i’m sure isn’t as good as the original, but will most likely be better than Saw 5 when that comes out next Halloween. Originally, Saw 4 was meant to go straight to DVD, but after the success of last years Saw 3, the studio figured it was a reasonable gamble. Personally, I would check out 30 Days of Night instead (if you haven’t seen it already).

But also in theaters is the Steve Carrell comedy, Dan In Real Life. I love Steve’s brand of comedy, so i’m sure the movie will be entertaining at the least. If anyone sees the film let me know how it is. But the film i’m most excited that is finally released wide is Wes Anderson’s The Darjeeling Limited. Wes makes great, unique films, and this one is no exception. I havent seen the film yet, but there is an 11 minute “prequel” short, Hotel Chevalier, you can download off of iTunes for free. Even if you aren’t going to see the film, you should check out the short. Let’s just say Natalie Portman is amazing in it. hehe

New Movie Friday!

Friday, October 19th, 2007

Its Friday so that means new movies are in theatres!! And the one i’m going to check out is 30 Days of Night. This graphic novel-adapted film has a great trailer, and stars one of my favorite actors Ben Foster. Yu Tsai shot Ben last weekend for an upcoming editorial, and after seeing the pics it got me really excited to see the film. Once I see it i’ll be sure to post a review.

Also opening in theatres this weekend is The Comeback, a spoof sports film starring David Koechner, in the similar vain of Date Movie and Scary Movie. I’m guessing for this film to be funny you will need to take some illegal substances. But also in theatres is the Jake Gyllenhal and Reese Witherspoon political thriller, Rendition. I saw the movie at an advanced screening and it was pretty good- but Jake and Reese aren’t even in one seen together- which will kill it for all you fans out there who want to see their “on-screen chemistry”. But the movie is still worth checking out.
