Full Trailer For Finnish Crime Drama 8 BALL Posted: 24 Dec 2012 01:00 PM PST Things promise to get rather dark in upcoming Finnish crime drama 8 Ball. A multi faceted affairdirected by Aku Louhimies and backed by Blind Spot Pictures (Iron Sky), 8 Ball looks to be a more encompassing view of the narcotic underground than normal, one that includes not only gangsters and guns but also addicts and their families in a package that promises to be edgy and provocative in a way we haven't seen out of the region since the Pusher films and Ole Christian Madsen's Angels In Fast Motion (Nordkraft). Jessica Grabowsky, Eero Aho, Pirkka-Pekka Petelius, and Mikko Leppilampi star.We ran the first teaser for this one back in October but now a full trailer has arrived. Take a look below.... |
Posted: 24 Dec 2012 12:00 PM PST [Updated with trailer.]The Park Brothers are getting back together. While all eyes have been on Park Chan-wook's upcoming English language debut Stoker it seems he's also had a little something else on the go, namely a second project with his brother - and Night Fishing co-director - Park Chan-kyung.Titled Day Trip the film stars a bewigged Song Kang-ho and Jeon Hyo-jeong as a vocal teacher and his student who head into the mountains to train. Check the gallery below for a selection of stills and remember you can click to enlarge.... |
Posted: 24 Dec 2012 11:00 AM PST There has a been a real abundance of great TV in 2012, perhaps even more so than in other recent years. Here are some of the performers and shows that I believe are deserving of appreciation this year.Best drama: Breaking BadSomehow able to remain the drama to beat in its final season, it's difficult to think of another series more engaging than Breaking Bad. Walter White's descent into darkness continues to be the most compelling story on television.Best comedy: LouieThere's nothing else quite like it. Louie is able to explore issues that most shows wouldn't dare touch and its episodes are incredibly well structured narratively. Oh, and it's also completely hilarious.Best drama actor: Jon Hamm (Mad Men)It may be that I'm still finding it hard to believe that this man doesn't have an... |
First Images From Chad Kinkle's JUG FACE Posted: 24 Dec 2012 10:00 AM PST A late addition to the upcoming Slamdance Film Festival, Chad Kinkle's Jug Face is an example of the festival's focus on developing upcoming talent. The debut feature from the writer-director Jug Face won the Slamdance Writing Competition Grand Prize in 2011 and here, a year later, the finished film is arriving for its world premiere.Boasting Lucky McKee as a executive producer and McKee's The Woman star Lauren Ashley Carter in the lead along with Sean Bridgers, Larry Fessenden, Sean Young and Daniel Manche, the synopsis given back when it won the writing competition read like this:Jug Face tells the story of a teen, pregnant with her brother's child, who tries to escape from a backwoods community when she discovers she must sacrifice herself to a... |
Review: LES MISERABLES Delivers Most of the Emotion and Some of the Spectacle Posted: 24 Dec 2012 09:00 AM PST When it became his privilege to direct the movie version of the Les Misérables stage musical that has enthralled the world for more than a quarter-century, Tom Hooper made one crucial, momentous decision. Instead of following the normal practice of recording the songs in advance and having the actors lip-sync during filming, Hooper had them sing live. (A pianist accompanied them on set; the full orchestra was added later.) Freed from the duty of mimicking canned performances they'd given weeks earlier in a recording studio, the actors could now make choices in the moment, to adjust the emotion on this line or the delivery on that one according to how the scene was going. They could truly act. And act they do! Not the big,... |
Watch The First Trailer For Mexicali Action KISS OF VENGEANCE Posted: 24 Dec 2012 08:00 AM PST Atrocious director Fernando Barreda Luna has something very different in mind for his next film. No more bumps in the night or shaky point of view camera here. No, instead he is cooking up a violent and stylish tale of action and revenge.Kiss of Vengeance is a western tale about a girl who becomes a true hero that fights the Mafia, inspired by a deep desire of pursuing the killers who executed her family in a horrible massacre back in the 90's. This is the lonely journey about a renegade young rider who can't trust anyone but her own skills. Set in the outlawed border of Mexico and U.S. ruled by the Cartels.A short film project designed as a precursor to a planned feature involving... |
Fluffy Christmas Love From COMMUNITY Posted: 24 Dec 2012 07:30 AM PST |
Opening: DJANGO UNCHAINED, in a Time of Blood, Awards, and Massacres Posted: 24 Dec 2012 07:01 AM PST Soon after Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained began screening for critics and industry members, a man made his way into a school in Newtown, Connecticut, shot and killed 20 children and six adults, and then killed himself. The massacre ignited yet another national debate on gun control, with further fuel added to the fire by a spokesman for the National Rife Association, who assigned blame to violent films and video games, among other things; he described violent movies as "the filthiest form of pornography." And now comes the bloodiest movie of the season, opening on Christmas. Eric D. Snider, one of our featured critics, wrote an excellent review, providing balance and perspective on the film. In his opening paragraph, he observed: The godfather of modern gonzo... |
Get Your First Look At Sharlto Copley In ELYSIUM Posted: 24 Dec 2012 06:30 AM PST The gang's getting back together. The first look the overwhelming majority of us had at Sharlto Copley was when the South African made his feature acting debut as the lead of Neill Blomkamp's District Nine. Copley's lack of acting experience - his background is largely as a VFX geek - proved no issue at all as he was a natural in front of the camera and he's gone on to a number of big roles since.But now Copley and Blomkamp are back together, with Copley playing the villain in Blomkamp's upcoming Elysium. And today the good folks at Empire published the first look at Copley's Kruger character.Elysium will again blend scifi spectacle with pointed social commentary, the film telling the story of an ex-con (Matt... |
And Now For Your Christmas Counter-Programming: New DJANGO UNCHAINED And AFTERSHOCK Trailers Posted: 24 Dec 2012 06:00 AM PST Ah, Christmas. A time of peace and love and earthquakes and slavery and bad club music. Yes, while - being male - we spent our weekend wrapping up the last minute shopping a pair of remarkably not-Christmasy trailers arrived online.First, there is the latest for Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained. Which would cover the aforementioned slavery angle and which Spike Lee says he will never, ever see. And, second, there is Nicolas Lopez' Aftershock which covers the bad club music and earthquakes while throwing in a bit of Eli Roth for good measure. Check them both below.... |
