Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Steven Soderbergh has a new movie, and it’s a comedy — a dark comedy — about corporate crime. I’m not sure that we can call this “holding criminals accountable,” but at least someone is holding them up for ridicule. Which is a start, anyway. And yet… if … more…
Take a look back at an old trailer… He slaps women around, and he likes to play with atom-bomb stuff. He’s the world’s greatest scientist! See what science does to people? He robs banks! He steals confidential nuclear material. But it’s okay, cuz, he only doing it under duress! He was the nation’s most daring … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… See, this is what constitutes a “bad boy” these day: he smokes and doesn’t give a shit if the people around him would prefer to avoid lung cancer — which they won’t, because everyone is tired of The Man telling everyone which corporations can’t exploit them anymore! … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… I still contend that Jim Sturgess is gonna be a huge star — he was amazing in Across the Universe — but maybe not for this movie. Not that the movie may not be fine; I just don’t see a story about an Irish man who goes … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Speaking of Lars von Trier’s latest… You’d think people would know by now not to go to remote cabins in the woods. Nothing good ever happens in remote cabins in the woods. And goodness, you certainly don’t go with Willem Dafoe: that’s just a recipe for horror. … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… So this one time, at Bandslam… I’m confused by this trailer: Which one of them is the moody, brooding vampire? Which one of them is the not-just-high-school-evil bitch who rips apart the bad boys with her bare teeth? Which one is planning a massacre in the cafeteria? … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… If it’s Robert Rodriguez, it’s sure to feature tons of wacky greenscreen stuff: kids bouncing off pillows the size of planets to escape Day-glo monsters or somesuch. If Rodriguez can whip it on his Mac, he can slap a goofy kid into it and call it a … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Will “We in da killin’ Nat-see bidness, and bidness is boomin’” be this year’s “I drink your milkshake, I drink it up”? I hope so. Nazis: the last people it’s safe to hate on. Is it too much of a spoiler to say that I’m guessing they … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Wonderful! Girl makes up bullshit in her job interview and gets called on it… and that’s tragic! Boy has been hanging around girl for years, desperately in love, hoping against hope that girl will change her mind about him… and that’s tragic! Please, deliver us from Nice … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… This must be the international trailer: even trailers for arthouse releases that will get limited play in the U.S. and Canada never get subtitles — they get cleverly edited to eliminate any dialogue that will suggest that the film is not in English. And I’m glad I … more…
