The Way, Way Back Review. Wants To Be The Independent Comedy That Can. Unfortunately, It's Not.

The Way, Way Back Review By: MattInRC The Nat Faxon/Jim Rash independent comedy The Way, Way Back tries to evoke the days of summer, when teenage love is in the air and the familiar sounds of swimming pools and family vacations overtake the agenda. Sadly, there's not much more we get from this film, which has all the best intentions but misses badly in several important ways. The teenager Duncan ( Liam James ) and his mother Pam ( Toni Collette , 8 1/2 Women) are headed to a beach house for the summer, along with Pam's new boyfriend Trent ( Steve Carrell , Seeking a Friend for the End of the World ). Duncan is a typical 14-year-old boy who's been shattered by divorce: he's shy, reclusive, and social awkward. His wardrobe yells out of touch, and his poor posture sees him constantly staring at the ground. When the trio arrive, they meet the sexually ferocious Betty ( Allison Janey , The West Wing series) and her daughter Katy ( Ava Deluca-Verley ), wh

New Featurette From The Wolverine " A Ronin Story"

Ahead of the release of The Wolverine , there's a new featurette explaining the film's storyline and take on the character, with special reference to his resemblance to a Japanese ronin, or masterless samurai. Take a look below for a hint of what we can expect from the movie. This story, set after the events of X-Men: The Last Stand , sees Wolverine ( Hugh Jackman ) "more isolated than you've ever seen" following the death (by Wolverine) of Jean Grey. An old friend, Yashida ( Hal Yamanouchi ) sends an envoy to find him, and offers Wolverine an end to his healing factor and endless life. But there are more dangers in Japan than his own existential angst, so things are never going to be easy for the metal-boned mutant. The Wolverine also stars Will Yun Lee, Rila Fukushima, Tao Okamoto, Svetlana Khodchenkova and Hiroyuki Sanada, with James Mangold directing. Please Leave A Comment- Source-Empire

New Lovelace Movie Poster

If the words ' Deep Throat ' evoke images of shady men in car parks, congratulations, you are officially safe for work. If they conjure more - how to put this? - salty images, that's probably because of Linda Boreman and her career in porno flicks. This new poster for Lovelace shows Amanda Seyfried as Linda Boreman, aka Linda Lovelace , and the film's full complement of period peacocks Appearing alongside Seyfried are Juno Temple, Adam Brody, Wes Bentley, Chloë Sevigny and James Franco . But dominating proceedings is Peter Sarsgaard's Chuck Traynor, Boreman's domineering husband and the creepy svengali who guided a career in skin flicks until she eventually gave up in favour of campaigning anti-pornography work. If the poster's '70s period costumes and disco aesthetic calls to mind Boogie Nights , that may not be entirely accidental. Expect a bittersweet take on an unusually lived life. As the first-look still from Lovelace showed, this biopic wi

Despicable Me 2 Review. Fun Family Entertainment

Despicable Me 2 Review By: MattInRC The sweet-natured Despicable Me 2 is fun family entertainment, but nothing more. In 2010, a year dominated by the creepy Toy Story 3 and the predictable Shrek 3 , a little animated film called Despicable Me was missed by the Oscar nominating fools over at AMPAS. It wouldn't be long before their error was revealed: heart-warming and downright hilarious, the comedy about an evil madman and his Minions has seen its popularity almost eclipse that of all the Oscar candidates of the same year. Its sequel, the likeable Despicable Me 2 , is dominated by the Minions but is not as deep as its predecessor. When we left Gru (voiced by Steve Carrell ), he had renounced his evil path to raise three loveable adopted girls, but not before stealing the Moon and then returning it. Now, the former madman is busy with soccer games, grilling up meats during Agnes's birthday party, and fending off the single neighborhood women. He's also trying

The Lone Ranger Review. Prove Critics Wrong, Or Does It Live Up To It's Troubled Production?

The Lone Ranger Review By: MattInRC The enjoyable, big western The Lone Ranger surprises in many ways. And that's a good thing. If you've not been following the troubled, off-again/on-again production of Disney's The Lone Ranger , here's a quick rundown: origin story with werewolves (no I'm not kidding) gets pulled by Mouse House after its creators can't guarantee the pricetag wouldn't stay below $250 million, then is suddenly resurrected once the monsters are removed. But, does Disney's decision to ditch the dogs represent a dodged bullet (no pun intended)? Luckily, the answer is yes: The Lone Ranger is fun and entertaining, even though it's too long. You know this story: John Reid ( Armie Hammer , J. Edgar) and a band of Texas Rangers are ambushed by the wanted felon Butch Cavandesh ( William Fichtner , The Dark Knight). The Indian Tonto ( Johnny Depp , POTC series) finds the bodies but soon realizes that John's contains t
