Weekend Box Office The Invisible Man Is A Very Visible Hit

Weekend Box Office: ‘The Invisible Man’ Is A Very Visible Hit By Chris Evangelista/March 2, 2020 3:00 pm EST The Invisible Man is a huge hit, and I have no follow-up snark or joke to go with this news. I’m just legitimately happy. Leigh Whannell is a great filmmaker, and I’m thrilled to see audiences connecting with his latest, which is scary, intense, and exceptionally well-made. It’s certainly a stark contrast between the last time Universal tried to reboot one of their classic monsters with The Mummy....

His Dark Materials Gets Some Much Needed Levity Thanks To A Singing Lin Manuel Miranda In Armour

‘His Dark Materials’ Gets Some Much-Needed Levity Thanks To A Singing Lin-Manuel Miranda In “Armour” By Hoai-Tran Bui/Nov. 26, 2019 8:00 am EST Hey, did you know His Dark Materials was based off a children’s book series? You wouldn’t guess based on the somber tone of the HBO series, which has become so self-serious that it almost fails to find the fun in talking animals and armor-wearing polar bears. But in the fourth episode, “Armour,” in swoops Lin-Manuel Miranda to the rescue in a hot air balloon, singing a duet with his rabbit daemon and injecting some much-needed levity just as the story is about to take a turn for the dark....

Mangrove Review Steve Mcqueen Stages A Riveting Courtroom Drama On The Front Lines Of History Nyff 2020

‘Mangrove’ Review: Steve McQueen Stages A Riveting Courtroom Drama On The Front Lines Of History [NYFF 2020] By Hoai-Tran Bui/Sept. 25, 2020 1:00 pm EST There have been a lot of conversations about Black pain as of late, whether in the news or in the movies. How do you thoughtfully depict it? Where is the line drawn? I’m far from an expert on the topic, but it seems to me that Steve McQueen, in Mangrove, the second of his Small Axe films, has found at least one answer: counterbalance that Black pain with Black joy....

‘Onward’ Clips: Tom Holland And Chris Pratt’s Brothers Meet Octavia Spencer’s Manticore By Hoai-Tran Bui/Feb. 23, 2020 10:00 am EST The first reactions are out for Pixar’s latest animated film Onward, and while the fantasy-comedy film doesn’t seem to be casting a spell on all critics, there’s plenty of reason to be excited for the road trip movie starring Tom Holland and Chris Pratt. Two new Onward clips help feed into that excitement, showing a sneak peek at the scene in which Holland and Pratt’s elf brothers, on a quest to magic their dead father to life for a day, come face to face with the not-so-fearsome Manticore, played by Octavia Spencer....

But Bong’s involvement is what makes them immediately interesting. I’m particularly curious about the action-horror film, because that’s exactly my sort of jam....

The Staggering Girl Trailer Luca Guadagnino S Eerie New Short Stars Julianne Moore And Kyle Maclachlan

The Staggering Girl Trailer Filmed by cinematographer Sayombhu Mukdeeprom, who shot Guadagnino’s two last films, The Staggering Girl follows Franscesca (Moore), an Italian-American writer who lives in New York and returns to her childhood home in Rome to retrieve her aging mother. It sounds like a fairly innocuous premise, but Mukdeeprom’s chilly cinematography and the film’s moody atmosphere gives off a horror vibe, which is no surprise considering the filmmaker’s last movie, Suspiria, was as full-fledged horror as Guadagnino has ever gone....

‘The Wonderful World Of Mickey Mouse’ Trailer: Mickey And Friends Are Back In A Series Of Animated Shorts By Ethan Anderton/Nov. 11, 2020 9:30 am EST Mickey Mouse is an icon, albeit one who has grown into more of a corporate mascot than an actual character. But in recent years, he’s enjoyed a resurgence thanks to Disney Television Animation’s aptly titled Mickey Mouse shorts. Combining a classic artistic aesthetic that calls back to the old animated shorts that played in theaters with modern cartoon sensibilities, the show has created plenty of fun adventures for Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy and Pluto....

Villains Trailer Bill Skarsg Rd And Maika Monroe Broke Into The Wrong House

Villains Trailer This looks like some good, twisted horror/thriller fun, and I’m psyched to check it out for myself. It’s written and directed by Dan Berk and Robert Olsen, two filmmakers I’ve never of but who are now squarely on my radar. In his review, /Film contributor Matt Donato called Skarsgärd and Monroe “a genre fan’s dream duo,” and also had nice things to say about Kyra Sedgwick (The Closer, Brooklyn Nine-Nine) and Jeffrey Donovan (Burn Notice), the deranged couple whose sugary-sweet appearance quickly proves to be a cover for their far more dastardly desires....

Did you think we were talking about the Fast and Furious franchise? Well, think again, because that also describes the xXx franchise, or at least the first and third installments of it....

Exclusive Disappearance At Clifton Hill Clip David Cronenberg Has A Podcast

Exclusive ‘Disappearance At Clifton Hill’ Clip: David Cronenberg Has A Podcast By Matt Donato/Feb. 24, 2020 2:30 pm EST Albert Shin’s Disappearance At Clifton Hill is a curious Canadian case of kidnapping, repressed memories, and the maddening effects of Niagra Falls. IFC Midnight nabbed distribution rights after positive reactions came out of last year’s Toronto International Film Festival, praising the film’s nu-noir aesthetic. I’ve yet to watch it myself, but an earlier trailer paints an underbelly small-town vibe as one woman attempts to make sense of questions from her childhood....

Finn And Poe Aren’t Boyfriends, But ‘Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker’ Still Might Have LGBTQ Representation By Hoai-Tran Bui/Dec. 4, 2019 7:30 am EST As soon as John Boyega’s Finn and Oscar Isaac’s Poe Dameron locked eyes in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the chemistry was apparent — especially to the hundreds of shippers who affectionally named the unofficial couple FinnPoe (or in some cases, StormPilot). But despite the support for the pairing from both Boyega and Isaac, it seems that FinnPoe is sadly not meant to be....

How ‘Hobbs And Shaw’ Brought Its Craziest Action Scene To Life By Rafael Motamayor/Aug. 14, 2019 12:00 pm EST For years, moviegoers have found themselves drawn to the Fast & Furious franchise and its parade of gravity-defying stunts. With each installment, the stunts got bigger and more elaborate, going from better-than average driving, to dragging a safe through the streets of Rio, to throwing cars out of airplanes, jumping from one skyscraper and into another skyscraper, and even racing a submarine....
