The Iceman – The Review

17 May 2013 4:50 AM, PDT | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »

Michael Shannon is one hell of an actor. However, even he can’t save the bad writing of The Iceman.

Here’s the deal. What they are trying to accomplish is to make “The Iceman” or Richard Kuklinski a compelling character that you feel compassion for. The story is based on Kuklinski, so he is the main focus. The murders, unfortunately, fall a bit flat. Despite focusing on his hundreds of kills, they shine more of the limelight on his love for his family. I feel that some might be disappointed with the lack of focus on the murders, but the film itself concentrates more on the man. The script feels a bit weak still. All of the compassion felt for Kuklinski comes from Michael Shannon. He is a fantastic actor who offers a complete dimension of layers. Still, the writing doesn’t begin to do justice to what they »

The One Where I Vote for ‘Lincoln,’ ‘Veep,’ the Glow Girls and Two New Candidates from Scream Factory

25 March 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »

Welcome back to This Week In Discs! As always, if you see something you like, click on the image to buy it. Beautiful Girls Willie Conway (Timothy Hutton) has returned home for his high school reunion at a very confused time in his life. His long time girlfriend (Annabeth Gish) joins him on the trip as he visits with friends, strikes up a purely platonic relationship with a 15-year-old neighbor girl (Natalie Portman) and decides if he’s ready to settle down and get married. The late Ted Demme has a few fine films to his name including The Ref and Blow, but this sweet, honest and funny movie remains his high point. Portman’s perfect encapsulation of the untouchable teen is fantastic in every regard, but to be fair her storyline is only a small part of the whole. Willie’s friends (Matt Dillon, Noah Emmerich, Max Perlich, Michael Rapaport, Rosie »

'Oz the Great and Powerful' Review: 10 Things You Should Know

7 March 2013 3:34 PM, PST | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »

This weekend, Disney adds a blockbuster prequel to the magical world of Oz adventure with "Oz the Great and Powerful." Sam Raimi directs James Franco as the titular Oz, exploring how he became a giant, smoke-billowing head. Before he was the man behind the curtain that you were advised to pay no attention to, he was a two-bit carnival magician, conning audiences out of their money, and women out of their hearts. But then a mysterious tornado whisked him away to the Emerald City and into the middle of a battle between Glinda the Good-Witch (played by Michelle Williams) and the Wicked Witches of the East and West (played Rachel Weisz and Mila Kunis). The movie has some big ruby slippers to fill (but you won't see them in the film), so how does it play out? Moviefone breaks down the ten things you need to know about "Oz the Great and Powerful. »

Relativity Producing Pablo Escobar Story 'Silver or Lead' with Spanish Director Enrique Urbizu

6 March 2013 11:34 AM, PST | Thompson on Hollywood | See recent Thompson on Hollywood news »

Relativity Media has taken rights to a script about the manhunt for cocaine kingpin Pablo Escobar, called "Silver or Lead." The original draft is from Michael Kane, while Piers Ashworth's screenplay will serve as the basis for Spanish director Enrique Urbizu, yet another overseas helmer making his English-language debut. "Silver of Lead" will center on the conflict between Escobar and General Hugo Martinez, as chronicled in Simon Strong's book "Whitewash: Pablo Escobar and the Cocaine Wars." Relativity has the rights to the book, as well as life rights to Escobar, Martinez and former Bogota DEA chief Joe Toft. Ryan Kavanaugh will produce with Mark Canton, Donald Kushner and Leigh Ann Burton. Canton says hopefully that the project is "reminiscent of 'The Untouchables.'" As for that title: Escobar had a phrase, "Plata o Plomo," meaning you could take his silver or his lead. Johnny Depp already played American cocaine king George Jung in "Blow, »

Gangster Princess Of Beverly Hills Traffics In Director Craig Brewer

27 February 2013 6:26 PM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Hollywood loves a good excessive drug hustling story. Scarface, in all of its violent 1980s glory, is one of the most memorable movies of all times. Blow showcased one of Johnny Depp.s last great roles before he became a Jack Sparrow caricature. And Oliver Stone.s Savages.well, it also had Benecio Del Toro in it, so there.s that. Back in August, Rolling Stone reporter Sabrina Rubin Erdely brought the fabrication-filled life of Lisette Lee to the masses in an article titled .The Gangster Princess of Beverly Hills,. and Deadline reports the article is going to become a feature for Paramount, and Hustle and Flow.s Craig Brewer has been tapped to direct. It.s always a strange thing when something as small scale as a magazine article gets fleshed out to feature-length, but Lee.s life is ripe for adaptation. The Seoul-born Lee claimed she was a »

Al Pacino And Brian De Palma To Reunite For ‘Happy Valley’

17 January 2013 8:30 AM, PST | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Al Pacino and Brian De Palma are definitely no strangers to each other, working together on films such as Carlito’S Way and a little film called Scarface, and they look set to join forces again, this time for Happy Valley.

Happy Valley will tell the story about the Penn State football coach Joe Paterno, who was dismissed as coach back in 2011 for his role in the Penn State child sex abuse scandal. The screenplay will be based on the book Paterno by sports journalist Joe Posnanski.

Producer Edward R. Pressman spoke out about the project:

Happy Valley reunites the Scarface and Carlito’S Way team of De Palma and Pacino for the third time, and I can’t think of a better duo to tell this story of a complex, intensely righteous man who was brought down by his own tragic flaw.”

The producers are currently in talks with screenwriter David McKenna, »

Pacino and De Palma Tackle Paterno, The Rock's 'Hercules' Dated and 'Gremlins' Rebooted

17 January 2013 7:30 AM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

1.) We've already seen how much Ashton Kutcher looks like Steve Jobs in the upcoming biopic jOBS, which will close the Sundance Film Festival on January 26. Now, USA Today gives us our first look at Josh Gad as Jobs' Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. I wouldn't quite say the resemblance is uncanny, but a successful biopic has never been purely dependent on casting lookalikes. Open Road Films has already picked up the film for an April release. 2.) After watching recent '80s remakes like Fright Night, Conan the Barbarian and Red Dawn set the box-office on fire (no, not really), Warner Bros. has decided now is the time to reboot Gremlins. The studio would have to work out a deal with Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment first, and negotiations have fallen through several times over the years, but a source seems to think there's a decent chance we could see Gizmo and »

Scarface Director and Al Pacino Re-Team for Happy Valley Penn State Scandal Film

17 January 2013 2:59 AM, PST | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »

Al Pacino and director Brian De Palma, who worked together on "Scarface" and "Carlito's Way," are re-teaming for "Happy Valley," a new movie about the controversial Penn State football coach Joe Paterno. The film will be based on Joe Posnanski's biography "Paterno," which is a NY Times best-seller. Pacino will play the winningest coach in college football history. But when it came out that his former defense coordinator Jerry Sandusky is a pedophile and Paterno didn't properly report the scandal, the coach was fired. He died shortly after of cancer. Ncaa reacted by removing Paterno's wins going back to the cover-up. Sandusky was found guilty on 45 counts of sexual abuse against young boys and will spend the rest of his life in prison. Producers are currently in talks with David McKenna (American History X, Blow) to write the script. »
