Stanley Tucci interview: Jack The Giant Slayer and 3D

When Stanley Tucci walks into the room, the entire group of international press falls silent. So, whaddaya want to know? Ad content continues below We ask away. Were used to the story being very much a campy fairytale. Is this version meant to be darker? I also think the way its shot is quite beautiful, its quite hyper-real, particularly with the 3D. How are you finding that process? Its really not pleasant....

Fringe (Season One), Lookback

Fringe has come to an end, let’s look back at Season One. When J.J. AbramsFringefirst aired on Fox back in 2008, it was hailed by many as the nextX-files. Thats a pretty lofty expectation for a new show to live up to. Not surprising, coming from the man who also producedLost. The Fringe Division is headed by reticent Special Agent Phillip Broyles (Lance Reddick). In other words, a typical woman....

Park Chan-wook interview: Stoker, Oldboy and wallpaper

How fitting then, that my interview with him should feel like a feverish hallucination. Congratulations onStoker, first of all. Do you think that outsider perspective was important? Well, not particularly. It wasnt the case. The movie he wanted to make has a universal story. And a fairytale travels all over the world, and crosses borders. In much the same way, [Stoker] is a fairytale, a universal story. Its a detailed film, as your films always are....

The Americans, Season 1 Episode 4: In Control, Review

The Americans continues to deliver. The show’s pace is slow, but rewarding . The Americanscomes out of the box swinging this week with another outstanding effort at 80s Cold War goodness. The allusions made in previous episodes are important things to remember in this bang out of series. Storylines that you think are dormant boomerang back unexpectedly, much to the viewers delight. This aggressive action could be just the coup that starts World War III....

Dark Skies, Review

Did you hear that? It sounded like something mundane…but ominous. You want to check under your bed and in your closet. But what if that strange late night noise isnt something ordinary? What if it is the insidious sound of an indescribable…other? Haunted house films and ghost stories have made killings on this simple nighttime anxiety. Its also what this weekends new horror release,Dark Skies, wants to get a piece of....

Madeline Kahn, a retrospective

Madeline Kahn was a comic legend who could do anything with her voice. She made bad movies good, good movies great and great movies classics. A little Madeline Kahn goes a long way. Kahn didnt have to star in a movie to be the most memorable thing in it. She didnt need more than fifteen minutes of screen time to steal a movie. She made bad films good, good films great and great films classic....

A look back at The Rock’s movie career: Be Cool and Doom

A Hawaiian-shirt clad Wilhelm pulls the eyebrow move alongside a photoshopped Kidman. The name of the film-within-a-film advertised? in as camp a manner as possible. If youve never seenBe Cool, you have most likely decided it is a trifle from these details alone. You would be right. Then some breakdancers appear on stage to wrap up the performance.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance PlayStation 3 review

Konami teams up with Platinum Games to deliver a fantastic action game. From exhilarating start to dizzying finish,Revengeancedispels those rumours with a flurry of tempered steel. The story centres around Raiden, the silver-haired warrior first introduced inMGS2. Opening VR sequences provide a way intoRevengeancescombat system. Hectic and over-the-top though it often is, Revengeance hasnt turned its back on stealth, either. Theres some great music too, with Jamie Christophersons metal score providing the perfect backwash to all the ultraviolence....

The Walking Dead, Season 1, Lookback

Good lawd they are popular these days. So, how do you reinvigorate a tired genre? Like all die-hard fans of print material destined to undergo The Change, my hopes were extremely high. What has the show devolved into? A beautifully shot and acted hour long Hyundai Tucson commercial. Oh yes, I went there. Good lawd they are popular these days. The word used to conjure images of a putrid corpse that wouldnt die, shambling hungrily after the living....

American Dad, Season 8 Episode 12: Naked to The Limit, One More Time, Review

Barry grabs his belly, turns it into a front-butt and dances around with it. I just about lost it when he started dancing with his belly butt. I dont know why its funny; it just is. In real life, Jeff obviously wouldnt survive. But hey, this is animation! Roger is what makes American Dad as enjoyable as it is. American Dadcontinues to outshine its big brother,Family Guy.

My Little Pony, Season 3, Episode 13: Magical Mystery Cure, Review

This episode has generated quite a bit of response from fans. People have either been absolutely head over heels for the season finale or left just shaking their heads. Unfortunately, we find ourselves in the latter camp. They all have an awesome time. Season 2 ends in the epic wedding of Princess Cadence and Shining Armor. And who doesnt love a royal wedding? Especially when it involves Twilight Sparkle getting a sister-in-law!...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Rise of the Turtles, Review

Does this iteration ofTMNTmake us say COWABUNGA! or should it be thrown to The Shredder? These similarities to the original are a big reason the new show is so enjoyable across multiple generations. The Kraang also make their appearance inRise of the Ninja Turtlesand remain true to their original look. Another changed aspect thatRise of the Ninja Turtlesbrings about is Donatellos love for April ONeil. April is also significantly younger than I expected....
