Watch: Racing Drama 'Rush' with Chris Hemsworth Gets a New Trailer
23 May 2013 9:18 AM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Since Universal is sending the high speed action bonanza Fast & Furious 6 into theaters this weekend, it's the perfect time to tout their racing drama Rush from director Ron Howard and starring Chris Hemsworth. Set in the world of Formula 1 racing, the period drama follows two rival F1 drivers and the crash that nearly took the life of driver Niki Lauda (Daniel Brühl) in his rivalry with driver James Hunt (Hemsworth). It looks like a pretty stylish drama, and something a little different for Howard as a director. The trailer might sell the sizzle a bit more just for the Fast & Furious franchise audience, but it looks good. Here's the new trailer for Ron Howard's Rush, originally from Apple: Director Ron Howard's (Frost/Nixon, Cinderella Man, A Beautiful Mind, Apollo 13, Willow) Rush, from a screenplay written by Peter Morgan (The Last King of Scotland, The Queen, Frost/Nixon, »

Bait - review

Sharks invade an Aussie supermarket in this gleeful comedy horror
Along with absurdity and poor taste, however, there's a certain brutal B-movie brilliance in Bait. An average cross-section of Australian society finds itself in a beachfront supermarket on one terrible day: troubled dad and daughter, tense couples, two guys with guns about to rob the tills, and so on. Then a freak tsunami hits, and waves come crashing in, a visual sequence incidentally conceived on broadly similar lines to Clint Eastwood's Hereafter and Juan Antonio Bayona's The Impossible, two rather more high-minded films about the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. So everyone's trapped in the flooded store, perched on top of the freezer cabinets – and a 12-foot shark is roaming the flooded aisles! The darn thing is getting hungrier. One young woman has an annoying yapping little dog with her. Yikes. Eventually the group decide they need to distract the »

First Trailer for Ron Howard's F1 Movie 'Rush' with Chris Hemsworth
8 April 2013 6:14 AM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
"The closer you are to death, the more alive you feel." StudioCanal has unveiled the very first full trailer for Ron Howard's Rush, the Formula One racing film about two real-life rival drivers, one played by Daniel Brühl (Niki Lauda) the other played by Chris Hemsworth (James Hunt). We've been following this film since early behind-the-scenes footage and photos showed up last year, but now we get to watch some actual finished footage and it looks outstanding. Not only an intense story about F1 racing, but a complex story about these drivers and what drives them. Most of the dialogue in this gave me chills. Looks so damn good! Here's the very first full trailer for Ron Howard's Rush, found on YouTube: Director Ron Howard's (Frost/Nixon, Cinderella Man, A Beautiful Mind, Apollo 13, Willow) Rush, from a screenplay written by Peter Morgan (The Last King of Scotland, »

15 Greatest Directors Currently Working Today
1 April 2013 11:55 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
While there are certain aspects of film-making they can’t always control, ultimately it is the skill of the director that determines whether a movie is good or bad. To make this list of the greatest modern directors, a director must still be actively making movies and only movies from the last 15 years are considered in the ranking of the directors.
The factors in the rankings obviously include the general quality of the directors films but also takes into account the number of films made in the given time period as well, the impact of the director on the filmmaking scene as a whole, and the potential they have for making more great movies in the future. The sheer number of quality directors ensures that a good number were excluded from the list as many excellent filmmakers such as Ang Lee, Kathryn Bigelow, Edgar Wright, Danny Boyle, Nicolas Winding Refn, »

The Top 10 Actors Turned Directors
1 February 2013 5:28 AM, PST | Scott Feinberg | See recent Scott Feinberg news »
By Joey Magidson
Film Contributor
***
I’ve always had a soft spot for films that are directed by actors. In one of my recent pieces, I spoke about how the Academy looks at actors who direct. Now, I’ll be continuing my interest by focusing in on which of these multi-hyphenates are the best at what they do.
By and large, the films that actors make when they choose directorial projects have some sort of significance for them or at least play to their strengths, so disasters are few and far between. This makes it a lot of fun to celebrate the best of the bunch, since I’m able to draw from a larger pool than you normally can when looking at one particular type of filmmaker.
I take some comfort in knowing that most films directed by actors tend to be at least decent, if not better. I »

'The Impossible' gets best odds to win Ves Award for supporting effects
31 January 2013 1:46 PM, PST | Gold Derby | See recent Gold Derby news »
The Visual Effects Oscar is typically awarded to CGI-driven films, but the Visual Effects Society also recognizes productions where effects are less central to the storytelling. -Insertgroups:12- In this year's race for Best Supporting Visual Effects, "The Impossible," which dramatizes the 2004 tsunami in Southeast Asia, gets field-leading 3/2 odds from our predictors. It would be the second film in three years to win this award for recreating the 2004 tsunami: Clint Eastwood's supernatural drama "Hereafter" won in 2010. In second place is "Flight," which opens with an extended plane-crash sequence. Two of our editors and more than two dozen users favor it to win, giving it 12/5 odds overall. The rest of the field is far behind. In third place, with 5/1 odds, is "Zero Dark Thirty," which follows the decade-long hunt for Osama Bin Laden. -Addprediction:94:573:Click to predict Supporting FX:addpred »

Thomas Doret takes it underground in The Kid with a Bike.
The Kid With a Bike is a 2011 drama film from the great Belgian directors Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne (La Promesse, Rosetta).
In the movie, 12-year-old Cyril (Thomas Doret), all coiled anger and furious motion, is living in a group home but refuses to believe he has been rejected by his single father (Jérémie Renier, Summer Hours). He spends his days frantically trying to reach the man, over the phone or on his beloved bicycle. It is only the patience and compassion of Samantha (Cécile de France, Hereafter), the stranger who agrees to care for him, that offers the boy the chance to move on.
Well-received by the critics, who noted that it was spare and unsentimental but genuinely tender, the PG-13-rated The Kid With a Bike enjoyed film »

The Impossible – The Review
3 January 2013 9:56 PM, PST | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »
The release of the original Airport in 1970 began a new type of cinema genre: the “disaster” movie. For the next ten years or so the big studios (and some small) hit upon the formula of throwing a whole bunch of stars together (often providing work for many former screen gods and goddesses) and have them try to survive a catastrophe. One producer, Irwin Allen, became known as the disaster movie king with The Posiedon Adventure and The Towering Inferno. These films were thought of as grand escapist entertainments, popcorn flicks. But what about a disaster that really happened? True life disasters have been the backdrop for many Hollywood epics such as San Francisco and In Old Chicago. Those films had fictional characters in stories set in those calamities. The Impossible is the story of how a real family dealt with a real event that we all saw news reports of several years ago. »

The Impossible Review
3 January 2013 7:41 PM, PST | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »
The Impossible Directed by: Juan Antonio Bayona Written by: Sergio G. Sánchez (screenplay) and María Belón (story) Starring: Ewan McGregor, Naomi Watts and Tom Holland I've seen a lot of movies during my life, but The Impossible was a first. It was the first critic screening that I almost walked out of. It’s not because it is a bad film, but ten minutes into the screening I wrestled with the notion that I might not be able to sit through the entire movie. As a mom and a human being, The Impossible is one of the most harrowing experiences I have ever sat through in the theaters. It's extremely well done, but it's misery porn from start to finish. Watch at your own risk. The Impossible is the fictionalized account of a family who survived the devastating tsunami that descended on Indonesian shores in 2004. The family that the story is based on is Spanish, »

Attempting the Impossible: why does western cinema whitewash Asian stories?
2 January 2013 7:15 AM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
As Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts battle the 2004 tsunami in The Impossible, debate is reignited over whether it's prejudice, studio cowardice or market forces that is keeping western film leads white
Spoiler alert: some plot details are revealed below
The Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004 killed at least 227,898 people. Around a third of these were children. The economy of coastal south-east Asia was devastated, with the loss in some places of two thirds of the boats on which fisherfolk depended. The environment was irreversibly defiled. Since many of the bodies were never found, psychological trauma was compounded by the tradition in many of the areas affected that the dead must always be buried by a family member.
Scope here for drama you might have thought. Yet The Impossible, like Clint Eastwood's Hereafter before it, concentrates not on the plight of the indigenous victims but on the less harrowing experiences of privileged white visitors. »
