Kill the Messenger Review: Gritty, Gutsy Thriller Gets Its Hands Dirty

Kill the Messenger largely succeeds at opening old conspiracy wounds. When is the truth too big to tell? 9/11 conspiracies dominated conversation afterwards, but recent history has been littered with one story of government betrayal after another. In Kill the Messenger , we see what was perhaps the first story to go viral, leading its writer to suffer greatly under its torrid but largely unsubstantiated revelations. The film largely succeeds, potentially paving its way to an Oscar invite in February, even if it's a bit short on specifics. San Jose Mercury News writer Gary Webb (Jeremy Renner) is writing stories about government seizures of drug homes in the 1990's, when a much bigger fish presents itself on his hook: for years, the American government has been pumping drugs into ghetto inner-city neighborhoods to fund the Nicaraguan Contra rebels against Communism. Webb can't help himself: a purveyor of the truth, he soon descends into a rabbit hole of contine

Admission Review. Doesn't Make The Grade

Admission Review By: MattInRC The Princeton get-into-college movie Admission doesn't make the grade. And soon after it starts, we don't care.   Warning: major plot spoilers ahead. Admission seeks to be a dramedy about the new world order: torment its cast with real-life difficulties and leave their futures uncertain, all while comedic interludes are supposed to encourage laughter from an audience who thought they paid for something else. Yes, Admission attempts this lofty but completely unrealistic goal, leaving us to question why we bothered to witness the result. Princeton admissions officer Portia Nathan ( Tina Fey , 30 Rock) lives a well-ordered but boring existence. In addition to pouring through applications for admission, her routines also include speaking engagements throughout Northeast high schools encouraging students to apply to what was the most applied-to school in the country. Even though her life is unfulfilled she's up for a promotion to dean

Bruce Boxleitner Talks Tron 3

MTV spoke with  Bruce Boxleitner and the question on everyone’s mind: will there be a third “Tron” film? “I think 'Tron: Legacy' left it open-ended,” Boxleitner said in an interview with MTV News. “You see two beautiful people riding off into the sunrise, and Quora seeing sunrise for the first time. That leaves it open to imagination and speculation." Boxleitner has played two characters in the “Tron” series, Alan Bradley and Tron… three if you count the brainwashed Rinzler from “Tron: Legacy” who is revealed to be Tron himself. Although he left it to someone else to suit up for the physical acrobatics shown on screen, it’s Boxleitner who voiced the character "We also saw Cillian Murphy and the boardroom at ENCOM when Sam pulled the stunt in the beginning," he continued. "All these things have been left hanging out there.” “ Rinzler is the attack dog for Clu – and through the movie the character made a journey back to redemption,” the actor points o

Tron: The Next Day Trailer

There are no light bikes or flying discs, but there's still plenty fot the Tron: Legacy faithful to enjoy in this new short film, Tron: The Next Day , which has just surfaced online. Culled from the forthcoming DVD and Blu-Ray , it's a gap-bridging exercise filling in what happened at ENCOM in the years between the original film and Legacy, and charting the activities of the underground Flynn Lives movement. Watch the clip after the Jump... There are spoilers ahoy for those who haven't caught Legacy yet, so beware, but let's just say the feature makes good use of cast members old and new, and that the eventual reveal of the mysterious Zakattack's true identity is fun. We thought it was Banksy, but it isn't. Please Leave A Comment- Source- Empire
