DVD Review - To the Wonder (2012)
17 June 2013 11:44 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
To the Wonder, 2012.
Directed by Terrence Malick.
Starring Ben Affleck, Javier Bardem, Rachel McAdams, Olga Kurylenko, Charles Baker, Romina Mondello, Cassidee Vandalia and Darryl Cox.
Synopsis:
A man is torn between two loves: the European woman who comes to United States to be with him, and the old flame he reconnects with from his hometown.
Released in 2012, To the Wonder marks the shortest timeframe between Terrence Malick films - with Palme d'Or winner The Tree of Life dominating 2011. To the Wonder didn't garner the same attention as Tree of Life, but it holds a similar DNA as it dreamily reflects on the relationship between Neil (Ben Affleck) and Marina (Olga Kurylenko). As an artist, Malick reacts to the moment and ruthlessly excises unnecessary characters and ideas if they do not relate to the core story he is trying to tell. The Thin Red Line removed performances by Gary Oldman and Mickey Rourke, »

Blu-ray and DVD Round up 17th June 2013
17 June 2013 6:21 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Each week we take a look at the good, the bad and the ugly of the home entertainment offerings, reviewing and rating the films and the special features packed onto the discs.
Here are the essential picks from the releases out on the 17th of June 2013.
Release of the Week
The Film
Terence Malick’s Tree of Life divided critics but it was a typically illuminated and unconventional return to the big screen for one of cinema’s enigmas. The relative rush of production on To The Wonder was welcomed by Malick’s fans and for the most part the director does not let them down.
The film follows four people whose intertwining love songs become the heart and soul of the film. There is the evocation of the free spirited love of discovery with Ben Affleck’s tryst with Olga Kurylenko, the cooling and disharmony of »

DVD Review: 'To the Wonder'
17 June 2013 3:59 AM, PDT | CineVue | See recent CineVue news »
★★★★☆ Following up 2011's Palme d'Or-winning The Tree of Life was always going to be a tough gig for American auteur Terrence Malick, but few commentators could have predicted the huge division of opinion that new film To the Wonder would provoke. Released this week on DVD and Blu-ray, To the Wonder sees Malick collaborating once again with Mexican cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki (combining to predictably resplendent effect), and whilst criticism has been raised over the film's lack of narrative drive and its high-faluting voiceovers, this is still very much a partner piece to The Tree of Life's quest for everyday divinity.
Academy Awarder Ben Affleck (unlikely to work with Malick again following a recent spat) stars as American overseas Neil, who falls in love with Ukrainian single mother Marina (Olga Kurylenko) during a stay in Paris. Marina and her young daughter - from a previous marriage - agree to travel »

Mark Kermode's DVD round-up
15 June 2013 4:05 PM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
No; Beyond the Hills; Warm Bodies; Beautiful Creatures; Hitchcock; To the Wonder
A gripping combination of political history and personal intrigue, Pablo Larraín's No (2012, Network, 15) dramatically recounts the campaign to remove General Pinochet from power during the 1988 Chilean referendum. Based on a stage play by Antonio Skármeta, the action centres on René Saavedra (Gael García Bernal), an advertising executive enlisted to sell the "No" campaign to a nation with the slogan "Happiness is coming", to the displeasure of the hard-line politicos who believe he's belittling their cause.
The completion of a thematic trilogy (following Tony Manero and Post Mortem), No benefits from Larraín's bold use of boxy, grainy U-matic video stock, which enables him to blend latterday recreations with authentic archival TV footage. The result is a seamless mix of fact and fiction, brought together through a unifying aesthetic in which the medium perfectly fits the message.

Spider Baby | Hitchcock | To The Wonder | Perfect Friday | The Kid Stays In The Picture
This darkly humorous, deeply demented 1964 curiosity is a genuine cult phenomenon, one with a reputation that grows by the year. By the time it came out in 1968, hardly anyone cared. However, it's subsequently found an audience, so today we can enjoy it on a rather well-assembled Blu-ray.
It's usually classed as a horror film or a B-movie but this slice of American gothic doesn't fit neatly into either category. It concerns the Merrye family, a clan so inbred they have a rare malady named after them. Merrye syndrome affects one branch of this rotten family tree, causing regression ("A progressive deterioration of the mental faculty … a rotting of the brain, so to speak") to set in as they reach adolescence. Kept sequestered in a dilapidated house, three afflicted youngsters are protected by custodian Bruno »

To The Wonder DVD Review
12 June 2013 9:24 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Director: Terence Malick
Starring: Olga Kurylenko, Ben Affleck, Rachel McAdams, Javier Bardem, Tatiana Chiline, Romina Mondello,
Running Time: 112 Minutes
Certificate: 12
Anyone who’s ever been to Mont Saint-Michel will have experienced the unforgettable ride towards the iconic island. However, even a memory of nearly 20 years begins to fade, so it is a testament of the great power of Terence Malick and To The Wonder, that the film reinvigorates such memories as though bringing them back from the brink of being forgotten. If there’s one thing Malick knows how to do, it’s capture imagery in a way that is absorbed by the soul.
To The Wonder is the sixth film of Malick’s, and is the shortest time between two of his films. There was just over a year between this and his previous effort whereas his previous shortest break between films was six years, with his longest being twenty. »

Javier Bardem Joins The Gunman And A Most Violent Year
7 June 2013 7:12 AM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
Let’s face it: Javier Bardem is awesome. He was one of the better Bond baddies in Skyfall, he was a cold hard psychopath in No Country For Old Men, And he’s married to Penelope Cruz. With upcoming roles in The Counselor and his recent turn in To The Wonder, the guy pretty much spends his time being awesome. Now Javier Bardem has signed on for two new films: The Gunman and A Most Violent Year.
First: The Gunman. Bardem is joining the film alongside Sean Penn, to be directed by Pierre Morel (Taken). The film will follow Penn as a man named Martin Terrier, who runs afoul of his organization and goes on the run. But Javier Bardem is coming after him. Who will in this fight? Given narrative structure, I’ll bet on Penn, but Bardem is totally more of a badass. I was half-expecting him to beat James Bond in Skyfall. »

'Runner, Runner' Trailer: Ben Affleck Vs. Justin Timberlake
6 June 2013 12:34 PM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Ben Affleck is about to roll the dice by starring in another movie he didn't direct. Will Justin Timberlake be the J. Lo in this "Gigli"?
Hopefully not. The brand new trailer for "Runner, Runner," from "The Lincoln Lawyer" director Brad Furman, doesn't look too bad. Timberlake (perhaps in search of his Egot) plays the young guy seduced by the evils of the corporate world. Affleck's character comes along to be all Michael Douglas in "Wall Street" with him (yes, Affleck is now the age to play the mentor instead of the mentee) and give him some shady tutelage.
Back in the days after "Daredevil" (the director's cut actually isn't half-bad!), "Jersey Girl" (Kevin Smith diminished the amount of Jennifer Lopez originally intended to be included) and the dreaded "Gigli" (which Affleck has been game to joke about on "SNL" more than once, including just a month ago), Casey Affleck »

‘To The Wonder’ Review
6 June 2013 4:14 AM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »
Stars: Ben Affleck, Olga Kurylenko, Rachel McAdams, Javier Bardem | Written and Directed by Terrence Malick
Terrence Malick is undoubtedly one of the most polarizing filmmakers going today. His eagerness to break away from the restraints of the classic narrative structure has allowed him to create films that are uniquely his own. Some view his style as pure genius, while others are still waking up from their viewing of The New World. His latest film To the Wonder will do little to subdue the great Malick debate, but even his greatest loyalist may find this outing to be an unsatisfying disappointment. For the first time Malick feels like a director who is only treading water. Fragments of Malick’s brilliance are overshadowed by the derivative nature of the film’s design. While Tree of Life used its abstract structure to approach grandiose questions about the meanings of life, To the Wonder »

Javier Bardem Will Have 'A Most Violent Year' In 'The Gunman'
5 June 2013 7:53 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Javier Bardem was busy over the past year, taking the world by storm as Silva in the billion dollar "Skyfall," shooting Ridley Scott's "The Counselor" and of course popping up in Terrence Malick's "To The Wonder" but has since taken a bit of breather. But now he's getting back to work -- and how -- lining two projects. So let's get to it... First up is "Margin Call" and "All Is Lost" director J.C. Chandor's next effort, "A Most Violent Year." The project was announced during the Cannes Film Festival, and plot details were kept under wraps. And they are still, but Deadline says he'll play "a good guy." Shooting (ha) will take place in Manhattan this fall. Speaking of shooting, Bardem is also boarding "The Gunman" -- previously known as "Prone Gunman" -- with Sean Penn, reteaming the actors for the first time since "Before Night Falls. »

Best and Worst Movies of 2013 So Far... Post Cannes Film Festival Edition
29 May 2013 7:49 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
On April 1, I took a look at the best and worst movies of 2013 up to that point and my list of the best films of the year included one movie, Steven Soderbergh's Side Effects out of the 22 films I'd reviewed to that point. Two months later and I've now posted 65 total reviews and the list of top quality movies has dramatically increased. Of the 65 total reviews I've posted this year, eight are reprinted reviews from last year's Cannes and Toronto Film Festivals. These include reviews for Room 237, The Place Beyond the Pines, The Sapphires, Antiviral, Spring Breakers, To the Wonder, The Iceman and Aftershock. I never quite know which year to credit those films in, but while a couple of them are some of the better films to be released this year, I wouldn't consider any of them as members of the "best" of 2013.

Ain’t Them Bodies Saints Trailer: Rooney Mara Loves Casey Affleck and Shooting Cops (Join the Club)
24 May 2013 12:00 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
After seeing the To the Wonder trailer, did you say to yourself, "I can never get enough of watching an Affleck and a pretty woman romantically frolic in a cinematic field?" If so, Ain't Them Bodies Saints offers a new Affleck (Casey), a new woman (Rooney Mara), and a new field (wheat). The David Lowery–directed film garnered a lot of buzz coming out of Sundance and is playing at Cannes. In it, Affleck and Mara play a young outlaw couple who get separated when Affleck goes to prison. It's set in the seventies — apparently, everyone didn't have Saturday night fever. The film opens on August 16, so wear all white, because you'll only have two more weeks before the Labor Day fashion police getcha. »

Watch: Anarchic, Hilarious Red-Band Trailer For Sundance Hit 'The Kings Of Summer'
20 May 2013 6:50 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
It's not yet one for the ages, but 2013 has had a fairly decent start to the year, cinematically speaking; there's been a lot of crap, but also a lot to recommend, in the shape of films like "Side Effects," "No," "Beyond The Hills," "Ginger & Rosa," "Spring Breakers," "The Place Beyond The Pines," "Upstream Color," "To The Wonder," "Sightseers," "In The House," "Mud," "What Richard Did" and "Frances Ha," among others. And next week, one of our very favorite films of the early part of 2013 arrives in theaters, in the shape of "The Kings Of Summer." We'd had our eye on director Jordan Vogt-Roberts for a while after his excellent short "Successful Alcoholics," so were almost nervous to see how his feature debut, a coming-of-age comedy about three kids who build a house in the woods to escape their overbearing parents one summer. But we shouldn't have worried; when the film premiered at Sundance, »

Review: Kim Ki-Duk's Golden Lion-Winning 'Pieta' Is A Bruising Mother-Son Relationship Drama That Ultimately Disappoints
16 May 2013 11:00 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
With only a few days left of the Venice Film Festival, no clear front-runner has emerged to pick up the Golden Lion. “The Master” is probably the best-received film to date, but festival juries often shy away from the most obvious pick. “To The Wonder,” “At Any Price” and “Fill The Void” all have their fans, but all received raucous booing at critics screenings. The best movies have premiered out of competition, and many films seem like non-starters. But the best reaction we’ve heard to date across our week on the Lido came last night from abrasive, confrontational Korean director Kim Ki-Duk's “Pieta.” The prolific filmmaker is not exactly known for being audience friendly, thanks to films like “The Coast Guard,”“The Isle” (which was briefly banned in the U.K. for animal cruelty), and “Bad Guy,” which swim with violence both physical and sexual. But the director has a gentler side too, »

Mystery is the name of the game when it comes to the films of Terrence Malick. Also see deep reflection, beautiful shots, and amazing casts. Today we have our first look at his next star studded flick, Knight Of Cups. Well, the cast has sort of shifted but we still have Natalie Portman and Christian Bale seen in the new photo playing around on the beach. We still don't have a detailed plot. It's said to be about celebrities and excess. Malick's most recent, To The Wonder is currently a hit »
