“Susan Cooper,” which is being developed as a potential franchise in the same tone as “The Heat,” will be a realistic comedy about a female James Bond-type.

Review: 'Filth,' Based On The Irvine Welsh Novel, Starring James McAvoy | The Playlist

It’s still not one to bring your mum to, and there are a few good foul laughs and grisly grotesqueries along the way, but the supposed trangressiveness of "Filth" is not only undercut by the surprising moralism and pop psychology of its denouement, but also by the way it feels that Baird only just manages to grab the tiger of Welsh’s “unfilmable” novel by the tail and never quite wrestles it into submission. Like the hot office secretary who’s duped into having sex by an enlarged photocopy, “Filth,” by not being quite as big and bad and ballsy as we’d hoped, left us unfulfilled. [B-/C+]

Still want to see it, if it ever gets a distributor out here.

Nice cast...is it coming out on VOD prior to theaters because it's not good, or because that really is becoming the new model for little movies?

That wants to be The Big Lebowski + Ocean's Eleven + Leverage so badly. And it won't be, JD. It won't be.

No. Likely not. And it does appear to be going for that 'let's manufacture a cult flick' vibe. But Kurt Russell works so rarely these days, and even in crap flicks he is usually watchable...so while I am not expecting much, I will give the benefit of a doubt and see this.

This guys work evades me, but I know a lot of you dig him, so...
I can never really tell where his work falls, comedy, drama...so sorry if this is the wrong forum.

Review: The Secret Life of Walter Mitty - CraveOnline

Once again...comedy...drama...not sure. This one is divisive amongst the critics. Either amazing and life affirming, or ridiculously maudlin and manipulative. Not a big Wiig fan, and Stiller...hit or miss, but I gotta say this looks Forrest Gump/get me a hanky-esque to me.

Exclusive test screening review of Seth MacFarlane's A MILLION WAYS TO DIE IN THE WEST! - Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news.

Wow.. studios must love MacFarlane. I had no idea this was being filmed yet...and it's already done(except for post work). The man works fast.

Anyone watch this? Looks like a good time, but I have limited Seinfield tolerance.

Review: Ride Along squanders the genuine chemistry between Ice Cube and Kevin Hart

Looked kinda lowest common denominator...still, seems kind of weak that they couldn't even hit the low bar they were aiming for.

 

[KingInTheWest]

Have Kevin Hart and Chris Tucker been seen in the same place?

Have Kevin Hart and Chris Tucker been seen in the same place?

There was substance to Tucker(see Jackie Brown/Dead Presidents) so far Hart has just been the latest greatest thing. Ask Martin Lawrence how that turns out.

I watched This is the End last night. Aside from a few good one liners here and there, just didn't think it was that funny at all. Old and cranky?

 

[jerseydevil]

Yes, yes you are. Worth it for Danny McBride alone.

BETTER LIVING THROUGH CHEMISTRY Trailer Featuring Sam Rockwell, Olivia Wilde and Michelle Monaghan | Collider

This line started with Jack Parr on the original Tonight Show, which most of you are way too young to remember. He made the statement, "Better living through chemistry" than took a big shot of either whiskey or scotch. LMAO
