That’s one foxy cast for the often pretentious director.

Nicole Kidman plays the beauty in Grace Of Monaco, which will centre on her marriage and identity crisis during a political dispute between Monaco’s Prince Rainier III and France’s Charles De Gaulle.

I’m So Excited Review: Almodóvar Delivers A Lazy Comic Misfire

29 April 2013 2:48 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars

Those who have found themselves entranced by Pedro Almodóvar’s tendency towards the dark side in recent years – especially with his last film, the deliciously demented The Skin I Live In – will likely be disappointed by his latest effort, a low-key outing that somewhat recalls the director’s more playful early work, though lacks the wit to make its high-camp premise work.

It’s difficult to imagine that I’m So Excited (named after the Pointers Sisters hit song, which features in one admittedly uproarious, lip-synced scene) would do any business at all were it not festooned with the seal of approval that is Almodóvar’s name, because this mile-high comedy doesn’t so much feel like one of the director’s films as it does another writer-director trying to ape his style.

The premise is enticing enough – a flight bound for Mexico City appears to »

10 non-blockbuster films we’re looking forward to this summer

29 April 2013 4:43 AM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

Octavia Spencer in Fruitvale Station

The summer season has, over the past few decades, become synonymous with movie blockbuster season, as studios have found the months of May to August to contain the most profitable release dates for big-budget tentpole features, leading to the summer of recent years being filled with superhero films, big budget CGI features, and other tentpole movies that draw in huge crowds. This year is no different, as Marvel’s Iron Man 3 is set to kick off the summer movie season as May rolls around. However, this doesn’t mean non-blockbuster features don’t make their way to theatres during this time, and for those looking for smaller features, there are plenty of viewing options. Here are ten of our most anticipated non-blockbuster features set to be released over the next few months.

Author’s note: All films were selected based on their release date in American theatres. »

'I'm So Excited' review: Pedro Almodóvar does mile high comedy

29 April 2013 2:41 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

Director: Pedro Almodóvar; Screenwriter: Pedro Almodóvar; Starring: Javier Cámara, Pepa Charro, Lola Dueñas, Cecilia Roth, Antonio Banderas, Penélope Cruz; Running time: 90 mins; Certificate: 15

Pedro Almodóvar switches to something a little more frivolous after delving into the darkness with plastic surgery thriller The Skin I Live In. New comedy I'm So Excited is very much Carry On Across the Airways as he tracks the lives of passengers and crew on a flight from Spain to Mexico City.

It's as camp as Christmas and light as a feather, but there's fun to be had in this absurdist comedy in the clouds. Almodóvar regulars Antonio Banderas and Penélope Cruz make fleeting appearances as squabbling baggage handlers at the start of the film, but the baton is swiftly passed on to air stewards Joserra (Javier Cámara), Ulloa (Raúl Arévalo) and Fajas (Carlos Areces) for the mile-high shenanigans.

Pedro Almodóvar’s ‘I’m So Excited’ Trailer & UK Release Details!

6 April 2013 4:30 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

We’ve just received news from Pathé and Twentieth Century Fox about the release Pedro Almodóvar’s new film I’M So Excited! The film follows a very mixed group of travellers are in a life-threatening situation on board a plane flying to Mexico City and is released in the UK on Friday 3 May.

Their defenselessness in the face of danger provokes a general catharsis that ends up becoming the best way to escape from the idea of death. This catharsis, developed in the tone of a riotous, moral comedy, fills the time with unforeseeable confessions that help them forget the anguish of the moment and face the greatest of dangers, that which they each carry within themselves. It looks a lot of fun, check out the ridiculous trailer:

I’M So Excited! re-unites Pedro Almodóvar with Cecilia Roth (All About My Mother), Lola Dueñas (Volver), Javier Cámara (Talk To Her »
