VH-1 Documentary 'Downloaded" Review By: MattInRC Is the downloading of music illegal, or the " foundation of the future " as Internet activist John Perry Barlow postulates in the VH-1 documentary Downloaded ? Either way, you'll like this fascinating backstory about Napster, the company in 2000 that brought users and their music libraries together, while scaring the bejesus out of the Recording Industry Association of America. Director Alex Winter mines opinions from both sides, including Napster founders Shawn Fanning and Sean Parker , who as college students introduced all of us to downloadable music. Their simple but ingenious program did nothing short of blindside a music industry that was too comfortable with its profits, proved the power of a burgeoning Internet, and showed the steps investors were willing to take to keep the company afloat. Their unceremonious end in 2002 by a federal judge is harped upon by plenty of Napster supporters, which Wint

Anything other movie marketing departments can do, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire can do better - and with more tracker jackers* - and we're excited to debut two new character banners revealing Sam Claflin's Finnick and Lynn Cohen's Mags, his 80 year-old mentor from District 4. These posters, part of a broader roll out of promos foregrounding Panem's Hunger Games tributes from down the ages, could be just the thing to distract a dissenting nation. The Capitol's inspiration behind its propaganda-styled campaign daren't speak its name (clue: it rhymes with 'Blosef Derrbels'), but it's done a great job of selling the corrupt grandeur of President Snow's state machinery. Instead of eating cake, the people of the 12 Districts will be invited to revel in the 'The Quarter Quell', a killing ground to which Katniss ( Jennifer Lawrence ), Peeta Mellark ( Josh Hutcherson ) and other successful tributes will be invited (read: ordered) for

If you were headed to this year’s San Diego Comic-Con looking forward to seeing something of Tom Cruise’ s new sci-fi thriller All You Need Is Kill , we have bad news: you won’t. Because it’s now called Edge Of Tomorrow and, fear not, will be part of Warner Bros.’ panel on Saturday. To go with the new name, there’s a poster for the movie. Edge Of Tomorrow finds Cruise as Lieutenant Colonel Bill Cage, dropped into the middle of a near-future conflict between Earth and a seemingly unbeatable alien race. Cage is an officer who has never seen a day of combat when he is unceremoniously sent into what amounts to a suicide mission. Killed within minutes, he finds himself thrown into a time loop where fights and dies in the same battle, but with each repetition, becomes able to engage the adversaries with increasing skill. Despite the title shift, the movie remains based on Hiroshi Sakurazaka’s novel. Emily Blunt, Bill Paxton, Kick Gurry, Dragomir Mrsic, Charlotte Riley, Jonas Armstron

Grown Ups 2 Review By: MattInRC In a Summer of good films, Grown Ups 2 is neither special nor memorable. I've made my disdain fairly clear for Actor Adam Sandler , who's turned in a body of work that hardly ever elevates itself from gross humor. He hit pay dirt last year with Hotel Transylvania , but that didn't come from his studio Happy Madison Productions, nor was it written by him. I had hoped his success in the animated genre would encourage him to produce more family-friendly (and frankly funnier) fare, and to move past the growing number of disappointments and bombs that are littering a once promising career. Grown Ups 2 shows that he's neither learned from his mistakes, nor understands the more lucrative choices placed before him. The original Grown Ups did very well at the box office, telling the story of Hollywood agent Lenny ( Sandler ) who returns to his old stomping grounds after the death of a friend. As the sequel picks up three yea
