The bland spy caper The Man from U.N.C.L.E. compromises its agents in the field. Review by Matt Cummings If there's one thing that can be said about Director/Writer Guy Richie's breathless directorial resume, it's that he's always been able to entertain while keeping his unique vision for a film intact. Even if they're not to everyone's liking (I personally love his take on Sherlock Holmes ), one can never criticize his casting and the twists he throws in as a writer. Unfortunately, something's missing from his current project The Man from U.N.C.L.E. ; it comes across as too old for younger kids to remember and not much like the one that tore up evening television in the mid-1960's. When the art thief Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) is forced by the CIA to carry out spy missions to expunge his criminal record, he runs into the towering KGB operative Illya Kuryakin (Armie Hammer) during an operation in Cold War East Berlin. Distrustful of ea

Armie Hammer may not have seen the career boost he might have expected when The Lone Ranger failed to connect with audiences, but he’s still booking films. Variety reports that he’ll star in a psychological thriller called Mine . No, the film won’t see him playing a live-action version of the seagulls from Finding Nemo . He’s actually set to play a soldier who finds himself stranded in the desert after a failed assassination mission. Exposed to the rigours of the harsh environment, he’ll have to battle life-threatening dangers and psychological trauma as he tries to survive. We're guessing there might be landmines involved as well, but possibly we're overthinking the title there. Fabio Guaglione and Fabio Resinaro are set to co-write and direct the film, aiming to star work in the autumn, with The Conjuring 's producer Peter Safran overseeing the shoot. We’re just hoping Hammer doesn’t have flashbacks to his Ranger days in the desert. Next up for the actor is Gu

The mega-budget " The Lone Ranger " went down in a cloud of a dust in its box-office debut over the July 4 weekend, saddling the studio with a " John Carter "-sized disaster. Over the five-day holiday weekend, the masked rider will have brought in around $49 million . That's about $20 million under analysts' projections and nearly $90 million behind the total of the No. 1 movie, Universal and Illumination Entertainment's animated family film " Despicable Me 2 ." The Lone Ranger Review - Worse, the $29.4 million three-day Friday-Sunday total for the $225 million adaptation of the classic radio and TV show, with Armie Hammer as the title character and Johnny Depp as Tonto, was weaker than that of last year's bomb " John Carter ." That $250-million sci-fi adventure opened to $30.1 million, topped out at $73 million at the domestic box office and Disney wound up with a $200 million write down. It's hard to imagine

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

Tom Cruise has exited as the lead in The Man From U.N.C.L.E ., the remake of the classic TV series that Guy Ritchie will direct for Warner Bros. Cruise was scheduled to star in the film with Armie Hammer , but he has stepped out of the picture to focus on producing and starring in Mission: Impossible 5 . Paramount and Skydance are now planning to begin shooting the latest installment of that franchise before year’s end. Warner Bros has a script they like, and a top director who’s expecting to direct U.N.C.L.E. in the fall. The timing proved too difficult and so Cruise stepped out to focus on M:I5. Warner Bros will now go hard looking for the lead of this movie, which is inspired by the original TV series ran from 1964-68, with Robert Vaughan and David McCallum playing Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin, two agents of the United Network Command for Law Enforcement. With gadgets and their wits and charm, they fought the evil forces of Thrush. Hammer, who’ll be seen shortly alongside

If teaming up worked for Iron Man, Thor and The Hulk , it has to work for Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman , right? Warner Bros. Pictures seems to think so, as Variety reported yesterday that the studio has hired a new writer to bring DC Comics' " Justice League " to the big screen. Just as " The Avengers " assembled the biggest heroes from Marvel Comics, "Justice League" would see DC's iconic characters joining forces to save the world. (DC Comics is a division of Warner Bros. Entertainment.) The fact that "The Avengers" is now the third highest-grossing film of all time with $1.3 billion worldwide seems to have reignited the fire to get the other legendary superhero team up on movie screens. Variety's report states that Will Beall, who wrote the upcoming " Gangster Squad " (starring Ryan Gosling and Josh Brolin) for Warner Bros., has been hired to take on the screenplay. Beall previously wrote for TV's &quo
