BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

First Look At The Justice League's Plane The Flying Fox

EW delivers our first look at The Flying Fox. The Batman is typically kind of a loner,” Ben Affleck says. “I guess you’d call him kind of inward, you know?” The man who debuted as Bruce Wayne in 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice laughs at his own understatement. After all, for most of the Caped Crusader’s history — and especially since 2008’s zeitgeist-defining The Dark Knight — the character’s been a brooding, traumatized hero. defined by lone-wolf vigilantism.

Movie Review: #LaLaLand

The beautiful, sweet, and hopeful La La Land is also clever and absolutely absorbing. Review by Matt Cummings There's a moment near the end of Damien Chazelle's musical La La Land where we learn the bitter price that sometimes comes with Hollywood fame, as if life itself can separate even genuine love when dreams get in the way. That uncommon theme is brilliantly portrayed here, prodding its audience through song and dance to take an unrestrained and thoroughly enjoyable journey through what can only be described as the nightmare that makes up the Hollywood System. For jazz pianist Sebastian (Ryan Gosling), the dream of owning an old-school jazz club is assaulted daily as he's forced to plink out holiday music at a darkened restaurant, all while the meany boss (JK Simmons) reminds him to keep the jazz riffs outside. When Sebastian strays too far outside the lines, he's fired but not before the struggling actress/barista Mia (Emma Stone) catches his playi

Movie Review: #TheAccountant

The Accountant is a wild, whipsmart slap in the face with a ledger. And we're OK with that. Review by Matt Cummings The fall movie season is already shaping up to be far better than this Summer's bomb-fest. Ben Affleck's The Accountant is another welcomed shot-in-the-arm, a wild but intelligent action film that features a great cast, some terrific comedy, and matches our need for amazing violence and solid storytelling. This action-thriller's premise is fairly unique: a high-function autistic child becomes the hugely successful accountant/soldier Christian Wolff (Affleck) who's worked with some of the top bad guys to clean up their books. This draws the attention of retiring Treasury agent Ray King (JK Simmons) and a fellow volun-told (Cynthia Addai-Robinson) who's forced to uncover Wolff's wild past. As he investigates a tech company's suspect books, Wolff soon realizes that his work endangers the life of Dana (Anna Kendrick), the empl

First Look At J.K. Simmons' As Commissioner Gordon

This past Saturday was Batman Day , so naturally projects featuring the Caped Crusader saw the chance for a little corporate syner... er... celebration. Among them was Justice League, which opted to premiere the first proper look at J.K. Simmons' Commissioner Gordon via director Zack Snyder's Twitter account . It's not exactly the clearest look at Gordon, but at least he's in a familiar place, lighting the Bat Signal. Simmons has said that Gordon won't have a massive amount of screen time in the film, but given the actor's usual abilities, we expect he'll make the most of it. Justice League finds Ben Affleck's Bruce Wayne and Gal Gadot's Diana Prince trying to gather the other superheroes they've discovered so far, including Ezra Miller's Barry Allen/The Flash, Jason Momoa's Arthur Curry/Aquaman and Ray Fisher's Victor Stone/Cyborg. They'll need the help, as a dangerous threat is on its way, and we don't yet know when an
