Vehicle 19 DVD Review
19 May 2013 12:33 PM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Director: Mukunda Michael Dewil
Starring: Paul Walker, Naima McLean, Gys de Villiers
Certificate: 15
Running Time: 82 Minutes
Synopsis: A foreign traveler (Walker) unknowingly picks up a rental car that will tie him to a web of corrupt local police.
Special Features: Making Of, Trailer
Seeing Paul Walker behind the wheel of a car for yet another action ‘vehicle’ doesn’t come as a surprise when you consider his signature roles in the Fast & Furious franchise and films like Joyride (aka Road Kill). He’s obviously comfortable in cruise-control and has rarely tasted success outside the fast-paced genre. He’s always appeared as a likeable chap (I personally have a soft spot for his dark modern fairytale Running Scared) and can pretty much pull off those types of roles with his eyes closed without really flexing his acting chops. Something I’ve never seen him do since his small supporting role in Gary Ross’ loveable Pleasantville. »

Blu-ray, DVD Release: The Ice Storm

Blu-ray Release Date: July 23, 2013
Price: Blu-ray $39.95
Studio: Criterion
It's all in the dysfunctional family for Kevin Kline, Joan Allen (ctr.) and Christina Ricci in The Ice Storm.
The 1997 film drama The Ice Storm is director Ang Lee’s (Life of Pi) adaptation of Rick Moody’s acclaimed 1994 novel of upper-middle-class American malaise.
Suburban Connecticut, 1973: While Richard Nixon’s “I am not a crook” speech drones from the TV, the Hood and Carver families try to navigate a Thanksgiving break simmering with unspoken resentment, sexual tension, and cultural confusion.
With a remarkable sense of clarity, subtlety and, surprisingly, humor, Lee’s renders the novel as a trenchant, tragic cinematic portrait of lost souls.
The film features a fine cast of established actors, including Kevin Kline (The Extra man), Joan Allen (Pleasantville), Sigourney Weaver (Paul), and rising stars Tobey Maguire (The Cider House Rules), Christina Ricci (Bel Ami), Elijah Wood (The »

Inside Mann: William Goldenberg talks about Heat
17 April 2013 5:32 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Trevor Hogg chats with Academy Award winner William Goldenberg about the nervousness and excitement he experienced while collaborating with Michael Mann for the first time....
“Michael [Mann] is the most meticulous director I have ever worked with to the point of obsession,” states William Goldenberg who has collaborated with Ben Affleck (Gone Baby Gone, Argo), Kathryn Bigelow (Zero Dark Thirty), Gary Ross (Seabiscuit, Pleasantville) and Michael Bay (Transformers: Dark of the Moon). “When we did The Insider [1999] we shot in almost every location where the actual event happened. He would want to make sure down to what tie, ring or watch the actors had on; it is complete authenticity at any price.” Goldenberg is impressed by the ability of Mann to have the stamina and wherewithal to write and director while still having the energy to pay attention to detail. “When Michael watches dailies he sits with a tape or digital »

G.I. Joe: Retaliation screenwriters discuss their Venom script
27 March 2013 1:39 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Having heard a little yesterday from Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick about their as-yet-unfilmed Deadpool screenplay, the Zombieland and G.I. Joe: Retaliation scribes have now spoken about another comic book adaptation which is yet to see the light of day by offering up some details on a script they wrote for Sony's long-in-development Spider-Man spin-off Venom.
"We did [write a Venom script]," Wernick tells Collider. "A long time ago, and it likely will not become a movie in that form. Too many things have happened in between now and then and different people have been involved, and it’s just likely not to happen in the form that we wrote it, unfortunately."
Rheese described their version of Venom as "a realistic, grounded, a little more dark take on the character" (which seems to be par for the course with comic book adaptations these days), with Wernick adding that "it was definitely kind of dark and soul search-y. »

'Admission': Which stars can always get you to see their movies?
22 March 2013 3:30 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
Like a whole heck of a lot of people, I love Tina Fey. I love her so much, in fact, that I’m going to see Admission this weekend even though the movie doesn’t personally appeal to me. Fey is one of the few people on my list of stars that I’ll go to see in absolutely anything. Happily, Fey’s Admission co-star, World’s Most Likable Person Paul Rudd, also makes that list. Regardless of the story, I simply like watching the two of them onscreen together.

First Posters & New Trailer For ‘Vehicle 19′ Starring Paul Walker
3 March 2013 3:39 PM, PST | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
I often struggle to remember what Paul Walker’s done outside the Fast & Furious franchise. He briefly appeared in one of my 90s all-time favourites in the form of Gary Ross’ fantasy fable, Pleasantville and he did headline the underrated, brutally twisted modern fairytale, Running Scared. However, we’re going to be seeing a lot more of Walker following his confirmation to lead both Hitman reboot, Agent 47 and a remake of French actioner, District 13 (which will be re-titled Brick Mansions). Not forgetting the anticipated Fast & Furious 6.
He also headlines fast-paced thriller, Vehicle 19, as a foreign traveller who unknowingly picks up a rental car that will see him connected to a web of corrupt local police. Mukunda Michael Dewil wrote and directed the South African-set film and here we have the latest trailer and as well as a bunch of posters. It’s expected to hit later this year. »
