15 December 2010 7:00 AM, PST | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »

Hitting movie theaters this weekend:

The FighterMark Wahlberg, Christian Bale, Amy Adams

How Do You KnowReese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, Owen Wilson

Tron: LegacyJeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde

Yogi BearDan Aykroyd, Justin Timberlake, Anna Faris

Movie of the Week

Tron: Legacy

The Stars: Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde

The Plot: Sam Flynn (Hedlund), the son of Kevin Flynn (Bridges), looks into his father’s disappearance and finds himself pulled into the electronic world where his father has been living for the past 25 years.

The Buzz: This film has been more than adequately promoted, especially here in cyber-space, which is all very appropriate. The film’s original teaser was released eons ago, which has allowed for a tidal wave of anticipatory energy to build up, day after marketable day. The question now is: Will Tron: Legacy live up to the hype? My bet is that it will — that is, »

Blu-Ray Review: Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s ‘Micmacs’ Smothers Substance in Style

13 December 2010 9:10 PM, PST | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »

Chicago – Can a movie be too creative? Jean-Pierre Jeunet tests this theory with his ridiculously over-the-top “Micmacs,” a clever film that is almost too polished and refined to be effective. Of course, it looks great on Blu-ray but this giant Jeunet fan can’t help but think his style has finally trumped his substance.

Blu-Ray Rating: 3.0/5.0

As much fun as it can be, there are elements of “Micmacs” that simply don’t work. But would we feel the same way if it were a debut? Is it disappointing only in light of “Amelie,” “Delicatessen,” and “The City of Lost Children”? Film doesn’t exist in a vacuum and it’s impossible to ignore the fact that while this film is masterfully-designed, it’s lesser compared to its auteur’s previous works. Still, lesser Jeunet is still pretty quality in entertainment, especially in HD.

Micmacs will be released on Blu-ray and DVD on December 14th, »

Micmacs DVD Review

22 June 2010 8:00 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

When it comes to odd and quirky films, you’re not going to get much more odd and quirky than Micmacs. The movie stars Jean-Pierre Marielle, Nicolas Marié, André Dussollier, Dany Boon and is directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet who previously brought us French classic, Amelie. How Jeunet’s mind works is fascinating and intriguing and you have to wonder if anyone else could have pulled off the masterpiece that is, Micmacs other than Jeunet.

Micmacs focuses on Dany Boon’s character, Bazil who has a rather large gripe with war and weapons in general after his father is killed by a landmine making him an orphan and then later in life, he’s inadvertently shot in the head! Managing to survive this, and through a serious of rather strange and comedic events, he discovers that the bullet lodged in his brain and the landmine that killed his father were both »

Micmacs Movie Review

25 May 2010 9:38 AM, PDT | ShockYa | See recent ShockYa news »

To simply call the new Jean-Pierre Jeunet movie ‘Micmacs’ non-stop madness, the English translation of its French title ‘Micmacs à tire-larigot,’ is an understatement. The action-slapstick comedy stars such supporting actors as Andre Dussollier, Nicolas Marie and Julie Ferrier, who Jeunet compared to the Seven Dwarfs. Lead actor Dany Boon also spontaneously added traces of Charlie Chaplin to his character Bazil in this movie about getting vengeance and revenge against those who have morally-corrupt actions. The movie starts off during Bazil’s childhood, when he was orphaned after his father was killed by a mine that exploded in the Moroccan dessert. The movie then cuts to Bazil as [...] »

Micmacs Poster, Photos and Trailer

23 May 2010 8:23 AM, PDT | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »

Sony Pictures Classics have provided us with poster, photos and trailer from Micmacs.

Micmacs is a 2009 film by French director Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amélie, The City of Lost Children, A Very Long Engagement) that premiered on 15 September 2009 at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival as a gala screening at Roy Thompson Hall. Its original French title is Micmacs à tire-larigot, (‘Non-stop madness’). The film is billed as a “satire on the world arms trade”.

Micmacs synopsis

First, it was a mine that exploded in the middle of the Moroccan desert. Years later, it was a stray bullet that lodged in his brain… Bazil (Dany Boon) doesn’t have much luck with weapons. The first made him an orphan, the second holds him on the brink of sudden and instant death.

Released from the hospital, Bazil is homeless. Luckily, our inspired and gentle-natured dreamer is adopted by a motley crew of secondhand dealers »

This week's new cinema reviews

26 February 2010 4:08 PM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

Micmacs (12A)

(Jean-Pierre Jeunet, 2009, France) Dany Boon, André Dussolier, Nicolas Marié. 104 mins

Having tried, and failed, to expand on his tricksy, inventive style with A Very Long Engagement, the Amélie director is firmly back in his borderline-autistic comfort zone here, with a terminally whimsical caper comedy. Boon leads a plot to stitch up a pair of arms manufacturers with the help of a gang of zany, junk-recycling misfits, and while you can admire the construction, the characters are one dimensional and emotional engagement is negligible. It's like watching the workings of an elaborate clock.

Capitalism: A Love Story (12A)

(Michael Moore, 2009, Us) 127 mins

Moore tilts at the Us financial industry this time, but rather than skewering the culprits of the banking crisis, this uneven doc pricks the subject here and there and hopes it all adds up to something. Some of it hits home, but too much is business as usual. »
