‘Captain Phillips’ starring Tom Hanks and Catherine Keener – trailer review

23 May 2013 7:57 AM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »

Captain Phillips

Directed by: Paul Greengrass

Starring: Tom Hanks, Catherine Keener, John Magaro

Rating: Not Yet Rated

Release Date: October 11, 2013

Trailer Score: 8/10

Thoughts by Tsr: “Good movie” is the impression this trailer gives off. Nothing in the trailer suggests to me that this will be the best film of 2013 – though a slew of Oscar nominations wouldn’t surprise me regardless of if I’m right or wrong on that – but it looks like a solid, well-acted, well-made drama. Sort of like Argo from last year (cue the screams that Argo was the best film of 2012).

Speaking of best films of 2012, Cloud Atlas was very high on my personal list. I loved all of Tom Hanks’ performances in that film and he looks to be continuing his hot streak here. Sure, I don’t love that he’s using his Carl Hanratty voice from Catch Me If You Can, but other »

Aaron Tveit Charts His Musical Path To Stardom

21 May 2013 4:32 PM, PDT | Entertainment Tonight | See recent Entertainment Tonight news »

On May 10, I had the unique pleasure of attending Aaron Tveit's first-ever cabaret show at 54 Below in New York City. Tveit, best known for his stage (Next To Normal, Catch Me If You Can) and big screen (Les Miserables) work is set to take over television this summer with Graceland, USA's gritty and gripping new series about federal agents.

It's been a long road to his first lead TV role and that's exactly what Tveit's carefully cultivated cabaret show highlighted as song selection transported audiences back in time; from his first audition to his last, while also highlighting tunes that have altered his personal and professional destiny.

ETonline recently caught up with Tveit to find out how he approached crafting this 54 Below show, why Taylor Swift was a major factor, what excites him about audiences finally moving into Graceland and if he's ready for the fame that comes with being TV's hottest new star.

Leonardo DiCaprio: 'The Great Gatsby' star's 5 best movie roles

17 May 2013 1:00 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

While the critical response to Baz Luhrmann's lavish take on The Great Gatsby has been lukewarm, reviews have by and large praised Leonardo DiCaprio's central turn as the mysterious, tragic Jay Gatsby.

Digital Spy looks back on five of DiCaprio's most iconic performances.

What's Eating Gilbert Grape (1993)

At the tender age of 19, DiCaprio earned his first Oscar nomination for Lasse Hallström's touching family drama. Playing the mentally retarded younger brother of Johnny Depp's put-upon Gilbert Grape, DiCaprio was deservedly singled out for praise by almost every critic despite being a virtual unknown. It's an intensely likeable and physically specific performance that elevates an otherwise predictable story.

The Basketball Diaries (1995)

Adapted from Jim Carroll's autobiographical novel, Scott Kalvert's drama tracked a high school basketball star's descent into drug addiction. The film debuted to decidedly mixed reviews, but again DiCaprio came out largely unscathed, with Rolling »

The Great Gatsby Movie Review

16 May 2013 10:19 AM, PDT | AreYouScreening.com | See recent AreYouScreening news »

Taking on one of the best American novels ever is always going to make for a tough go, and when it’s The Great Gatsby, the uphill battle is all the worse. Condensing all that is most difficult to film into a brisk, layered prose that can be consumed in an afternoon, and analyzed for months, the book is mostly Nick Carraway’s thoughts on obsession, indulgence, and the odd nature of what we wish for. None of it is exactly well-suited for the screen, especially because the book gets its real power from Nick seeing it, not you.

As might be expected, Baz Luhrman has a somewhat different game in mind. The number of themes and metaphoric elements worked into the short page-count of The Great Gatsby is one of the most significant feats in all literature, nevermind just American novels, but whatever Fitzgerald might have been trying to say with his work, »

Gatsby Opening Weekend B.O.: Ahead or Behind Titanic?

13 May 2013 7:02 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

Leonardo DiCaprio The Great Gatsby movie box office: DiCaprio’s second biggest opening ever — but trailing Titanic in ticket sales The Great Gatsby movie adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel earned $50.08m at the North American box office this past weekend, including $3.25 million from late Thursday night showings, according to weekend box-office actuals found at Box Office Mojo. Despite mostly poor reviews — The Great Gatsby has a 32% approval rating and 5.6/10 average among Rotten Tomatoes‘ top critics — the Baz Luhrmann-directed take on the love story between Leonardo DiCaprio’s Jay Gatsby and Carey Mulligan’s Daisy Buchanan far surpassed the expectations of both distributor Warner Bros. and box-office pundits. In fact, The Great Gatsby trailed only Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man 3, which collected $72.52 million at the domestic box office this past weekend. (Photo: Leonardo DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby.) Partly thanks to 3D surcharges and a strong female contingent of ticket-buyers, »

Gatsby to Become DiCaprio's Second Biggest Debut Weekend Ever?

11 May 2013 8:51 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »

Leonardo DiCaprio The Great Gatsby movie weekend box office: DiCaprio’s second biggest opening ever? (Photo: Leonardo DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby, with Carey Mulligan) Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Jay Gatsby in Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby movie adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic 1920s novel. A risky move? Well, if so, it has clearly paid off. Although The Great Gatsby will not top the North American box office this weekend, it’ll land in a remarkably (and surprisingly) strong second slot. (Photo: Leonardo DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby movie adaptation, with Carey Mulligan as Daisy Buchanan.) Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man 3 will easily lead the domestic box-office charge with approximately $65-70m, after plummeting 71% on Friday, compared to the previous week. True, opening-day Friday also included the box-office take from Thursday late night showings, but, for comparison’s sake, The Avengers was down 64% during that same time frame. »

How Leo Met Tobey

10 May 2013 10:26 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

New York — Tobey Maguire didn't have to go far when Leonardo DiCaprio called him about meeting to discuss an adaptation of "The Great Gatsby" with Baz Luhrmann.

"I happened to live next door to Leo at the time, so it wasn't a far journey," Maguire says. "I was like, `Oh, yeah. Sure. I can be over in 30 seconds if that's good for you.'"

"The Great Gatsby" is the first film of note co-starring the two longtime pals. It's fitting, too, because they play the classic tandem of the desperate romantic Jay Gatsby (DiCaprio) and his lone friend, the narrator Nick Carraway (Maguire) – who, not unlike Maguire, lives adjacent to Gatsby.

Working together on a film is a long time coming for DiCaprio and Maguire. In a recent joint interview at the Plaza Hotel in New York, the two cheerfully reflected on their close friendship, flashing occasional glimpses of the »

9 May 2013 7:12 PM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

Disney has started to draw up a shortlist of directors for the next Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders and The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman's Fredrik Bond are believed to be in contention for the job, reports Deadline.

Kon-Tiki directing duo Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg are also said to be in the running as the studio, lead actor Johnny Depp and producer Jerry Bruckheimer carry on discussions about the follow-up to Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.

Bond - who will make his feature film directing debut with Charlie Countryman later this year - is believed to be Bruckheimer's personal favourite to take the director's chair on the fifth Pirates instalment.

It is thought that more meetings are on the cards before an offer will be made, and it is hoped that a director will be hired within the »

Captain Phillips Trailer: Tom Hanks vs. Pirates and Boston Accents

8 May 2013 11:10 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »

Arrrrr, me maties, you ready to walk the plank? Oh wait, it's not that type of pirate movie. This one's super intense and based on a true story. Captain Phillips tells the story of the real-life captain of the Maersk Alabama, the cargo ship that Somali pirates hijacked back in 2009. Tom Hanks, with his Catch Me If You Can Boston accent in tow, plays the captured captain. The Paul Greengrass–directed film hits theaters on October 11. Don't wear an eye patch to the theater, because (1) it's not that type of pirate movie, and (2) it'll probably make the screen look all weird. »

For those of us who used to plaster our bedroom walls with Leo posters, this weekend's The Great Gatsby is a sad reminder that we're now past our poster-hanging prime, but it's also a happy reminder that Leonardo DiCaprio's face is still quite special. (Say what you will about how it's getting wider with age — we're not listening.) So special, in fact, that we were compelled to rewatch a bunch of Leo movies and make a series of Tiger Beat collages displaying his six most common acting tics — five faces and one very sturdy finger.The Lion-Roar Scream 1.

'Entourage' Star Has Surprising New Gig

25 April 2013 3:45 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Kevin Connolly is best known for playing sidekick-turned-manager Eric Murphy (a.k.a. "E") on "Entourage," but at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival he added another job to his resume: documentary filmmaker. Connolly's "Big Shot," an Espn 30 for 30 production focusing on the scandal surrounding former New York Islanders owner John Spano, debuted in New York last week.

The documentary, which Espn will air in October, explains how the New York-born, Ohio-raised Spano agreed to purchase the storied NHL franchise in October of 1996 from then-owner John Pickett for $165 million. Eight months later, however, Spano was revealed to be a fraud; his net worth was barely more than $2 million, a mere fraction of the over $200 million that he claimed. By 1998, he was convicted of bank fraud and eventually sentenced to 71 months in prison. Yet for four months, from when the NHL approved him as owner in February until New York Newsday published a »

De Niro and Labeouf to Star in D.J. Caruso's Spy's Kid

23 April 2013 5:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Director D.J. Caruso is in talks to helm a film for Paramount Pictures called Spy's Kid, which is in no way related to Robert Rodriguez's silly kid franchise. It would reteam the director with Shia Labeouf who worked with him on films such as Eagle Eye and Suburbia. Robert De Niro is also in talks to star in the movie. 

The film sounds like it could be amazing! It's described as a Catch Me If You Can-style story set in the world of espionage. It's based on a six-part series of dramatic articles written by Bryan Denson. They were published in The Oregonian in 2011, and it tells the true story of a traitorous spy who enlists his son to continue his work. Here's a description of the crazy story,

Robert De Niro to Father Shia Labeouf as 'Spy's Kid' in New Thriller

22 April 2013 1:46 PM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »

Right now audiences can see Shia Labeouf as an intrepid reporter exposing the alleged shady past of Robert Redford in The Company You Keep, but soon they'll be able to see the Transformers franchise star teamed up with another legendary actor. Heat Vision has word that Labeouf is currently attached to Spy's Kid, a thriller that would see him playing the son of a traitorous CIA spy played by Robert De Niro, trained to continue his father's legacy. The title is a little weak, but the film would reunite the actor with director D.J. Caruso (Eagle Eye, Disturbia) and continue their Hitchcockian collaborative trend. Read on! The story described as having flares of Catch Me If You Can is based on a six-part series of articles from The Oregonian which chronicled the life of Jim Nicholson, a CIA spy who worked at the agency for 20 years and was convicted of »

Robert De Niro And Shia Labeouf To Play A Father-Son Duo In Spy’S Kid

The unlikely duo of Robert De Niro and Shia Labeouf will be teaming up on a good old fashioned spy movie titled Spy’s Kid. A Catch Me If You Can-esque story is based on a dramatic six-part series of articles published in The Oregonian by Bryan Denson with no writer currently attached. Labeouf’s Disturbia helmer D.J. Caruso is in talks to direct the true story of a high ranking CIA veteran John Nicholson (De Niro) convicted of spying who enlisted his son, 24-year-old college student Nathan Nicholson (Labeouf) to continue his work from behind bars with the Russians. In 1997, the 59-year-old native Oregonian, whose...

Robert De Niro and Shia Labeouf to Star as Father-Son Spy Team in Spy’S Kid

22 April 2013 11:08 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

Robert De Niro and Shia Labeouf are looking to team up for a good old fashioned spy movie.  Heat Vision reports that De Niro and Labeouf are attached to play a father-son spy team in Spy’s Kid for Paramount, which is described as a Catch Me If You Can-esque story set in the world of espionage.  Labeouf’s Disturbia director D.J. Caruso is in talks to take the helm, and the project is based on a series of articles published in The Oregonian by Bryan Denson that tell the true story of a CIA veteran convicted of spying who enlisted his son to continue his work from behind bars. A writer has yet to be attached to the project, and De Niro and Labeouf’s involvement is contingent upon the final script.  Caruso has yet to get anything off the ground since he helmed the disappointing 2011 sci-fi pic I Am Number Four. »
