Looks like it’s not the Red Skull or an entire division of HYDRA that can give Captain America a run for his money, but an endangered species. Rio 2 battled with the super soldier over the weekend, but came up short as Cap stayed on top. Still, it was a decent opening for the animated sequel, banking $39 million that …

If there’s one thing that Marvel Studios proved to everybody else, is that you have to have a plan. They have plans until 2028 for their universe, Sony has a massive Spider-y plan involving sequels and villains, and Warner Bros\DC… Well, they kind a have a plan now, which is a lot better than their old “plan” of just randomly …

“Every good man has a little bit of bad,” remarks Robin Wright’s character to a German accented Philip Seymour Hoffman in this trailer for A Most Wanted Man. She’s talking about a potential terrorist, but she may as well have been talking about Hoffman himself.

The actress/screenwriter first came to my and many a film fan’s attention with the amazing lo-fi science-fiction drama, Another Earth, in which she teamed up magnificently with director Mike Cahill. She’s since done work with other directors, notably Zal Batmanglij on The Sound …

It’s been a while since we’ve seen King Arthur on the big screen. The last notable effort was in 2004, with Antoine Fuqua directing a solid but forgettable epic that gave the legend a more Romanesque feel. Still, you can’t keep a good myth down, especially when it’s not attached to fees that have to be paid to rights holders. …

I’ll be honest, and admit that the first time that I saw How To Train Your Dragon, the film just didn’t gel with me. It looked magnificent, I’ll give it that, but something was off.
