Alex Cross DVD Review

5 May 2013 7:20 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Director: Rob Cohen

Starring: Tyler Perry, Matthew Fox, Rachel Nichols, Edward Burns, John C. McGinley

Running Time: 101 Mins

Certificate: 15

Extras: Deleted Scenes, Commentary with director Rob Cohen, “The Psychologist and the Butcher: Adapting and Filming Alex Cross”.

Tyler Perry’s name emblazoned across a movie poster or DVD cover is usually cause for concern. The so-called comedy actor, whose very presence in popular culture justifies the existence of the Razzie awards, has yet to star in a decent movie. With Alex Cross, the latest adaption of the popular book series by James Patterson, it’s another major misfire for Perry. But surprisingly, he’s the best thing in it.

It’s not to say that he deserves an Oscar. But Perry delivers a good performance as the titular detective, here investigating a serial killing spree perpetrated by Lost’s Matthew Fox. Unlike Fox, whose performance is as about as overly caricatured, »

Rob Cohen Tracks Down Crash Bandits

14 April 2013 11:39 AM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Though we thought directing last year’s slightly shonky Alex Cross might have seen him condemned to director jail for a while, Rob Cohen is still lining up future jobs. He’s now attached to make Crash Bandits for Nu Image/Millennium. No, it’s not an off-brand rip-off film based on the Crash Bandicoot console game, it’s actually the story of two rival treasure hunters who specialise in salvaging old plane wrecks. When they get wind of the ultimate prize lurking in the Amazon, the race is on.It all sounds a little bit like Sahara to us, though Cohen does at least know his way around an action sequence. Crash Bandits has been sitting in development for a while now, originally penned by Michael Stokes and at one time considered as a John McTiernan vehicle with Hayden Christensen starring. Now Cohen will re-write the script and start looking for a new cast. »

Rob Cohen to Direct Crash Bandits

13 April 2013 2:00 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Now I know that you're thinking this has something to do with the video game Crash Bandicoot. But I regret to inform you it doesn't. 

Rob Cohen is set to direct a film called Crash Bandits, which "centers on the rivalry between two treasure hunters who specialize in salvaging old plane wrecks. When they get a beat on the ultimate prize, they find themselves in a race against each other in the Amazon jungle."

The plot sounds like fun if not a rehash of old ideas. Cohen has a lot to his name: The Fast and the Furious, XXX, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, and most recently Alex Cross

Rob Cohen to Direct Action/Adventure Film Crash Bandits

12 April 2013 1:12 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

It looks like Rob Cohen is still managing to wrangle in some projects, despite having had less than stellar turnouts for his recent ventures with Alex Cross and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor.  Word now comes that Cohen will direct the action/adventure film Crash Bandits.  The pic comes from a script by Michael Stokes and is being made by Nu Image/Millienium, and will tell the story of a rivalry between two competing treasure hunters.  While the premise sounds somewhat interesting and Cohen does have a history of exploring similar projects that mix the hyper-real with a streak of action and adventure, I still remain skeptical as to whether or not this is going to actually be pulled off well.  Hit the jump for more on the project. While Cohen did start out in his career stronger with the likes of The Fast and the Furious and XXX, »

Why The Box Office Performance Of 'Temptation' Might Be Most Crucial For Tyler Perry...

29 March 2013 9:41 AM, PDT | ShadowAndAct | See recent ShadowAndAct news »

As I told my colleagues privately, I'm really curious to see how well Tyler Perry's Temptation does this opening weekend.  Why?  It's the first Tyler Perry film since 2010 that he doesn't appear in. The last film he wrote and directed that he didn't star in was For Colored Girls which was released in November 2010. Since then, he's starred in every Tyler Perry-stamped film - a total of 4 films over that 3-year time period (including Alex Cross, which he didn't write or direct). And that's key because Tyler Perry films that don't star Tyler Perry have been his weakest films overall (there really haven't been that many in which he didn't star). And drilling even further, »

Matthew Fox (World War Z, Alex Cross, “Lost”) joins with Academy Award® winner Tommy Lee Jones (Lincoln, No Country For Old Men, The Fugitive, Hope Springs), newcomer Eriko Hatsune and award-winning Japanese star Toshiyuki Nishida to bring to life the American occupation of Japan in the perilous and unpredictable days just after Emperor Hirohito’s World War II surrender. As General Douglas MacArthur (Jones) suddenly finds himself the de facto ruler of a foreign nation, he assigns an expert in Japanese culture – and psychological warfare – General Bonner Fellers (Fox), to covertly investigate the looming question hanging over the country: should the Japanese Emperor, worshiped by his people but accused of war crimes, be punished or saved?

Emperor (2013) – The Review

7 March 2013 6:02 PM, PST | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »

Students, time to put down your textbooks and dash over to the cinema for yet another history lesson. Seems we were just here for an American history lecture from Steven Spielberg’s Oscar winner Lincoln. This time we’ll explore the world stage (or soundstage) with the new film Emperor. The two films have a bit in common besides the involvement of actor Tommy Lee Jones. Both are set at the conclusions of their respective wars. The former close to the end of fighting, the new film occurs after the signatures on the surrender treaty are barely dry. And both films zero in a particular event. Abe’s trying to make sure the thirteenth amendment is passed, while this recent film wants to ascertain the depth of the Japanese emperor’s role in WWII. Treatment of the losing forces are also factors in the respective films. Class, time to jump »

Classroom Exercise: Webber’s Latest Historical Drama Dry and Sleepy

Arriving with all the subdued excitement of a vaguely written history textbook comes Peter Webber’s latest film, Emperor, which documents the true story of one man’s task to investigate Japan’s leader General Hirohito during America’s post World War II occupation under the control of General Douglas MacArthur. The task is to unveil just how responsible the Japanese leader was for reprehensible war crimes, the evidence to be used to decide how the Americans pardon or prosecute. While this sounds like a deliriously ripe scenario for intrigue and melodrama, Webber’s film contains neither, instead deciding to saddle it with a deadening war time romance, and rotating mechanically back and forth between a politically explosive scenario and lost love. While Webber is best known for his debut film, an adaptation of the novel The Girl With a Pearl Earring, »

Matthew Fox blasts One Direction

Matthew Fox despairs of his daughter's love for One Direction. While the 'Alex Cross' star's 15-year-old daughter Kyle is a huge fan of the boy band, Alex doesn't rate their music and is trying to convince her to change her musical tastes. He told chat show host Conan O'Brien: 'She's a huge One Direction fan. She's got this major crush on Harry Styles. And I'm a huge music fan and we're having that classic father-child argument about music right now. So I'm trying to encourage her to explore music that's outside of the boy bands.' However, Kyle doesn't want to listen to her 46-year-old father so they have agreed not to discuss the band - which is comprised of Niall »

In fact, while chatting it up with Conan O'Brien on his talk show Wednesday night, the Alex Cross actor revealed that his disdain for the fellas has created a bit of a conflict between him and his 15-year-old daughter.
