  The Fifth Estate Review By: MattInRC The Julian Assange biopic The Fifth Estate can't decide if it's a political thriller or an advertisement for WikiLeaks. THE FIFTH ESTATE BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH Interview - Whether your opinion of Julian Assange is positive or not, one cannot deny the effect of his WikiLeaks site. What was the hallowed ground for investigative reporting by dinosaur newspapers has become a wide open arena for bloggers with a story to tell. Yet, there's a shortsightedness to making a film based on someone who hasn't yet died - are they destined to achieve more, or will their success lead to a disastrous fall? The problems with the biopic The Fifth Estate lie on this and other arguments, particularly those surrounding what kind of film it wants to be. Unfortunately, it never quite gets to where it could, settling for something flashy and scattershot instead of something substantive. Army-of-one Julian Assange ( Benedict Cumberbat

The Word’s End Review By: Nicolas Souza If you enjoy laughing at Simon Pegg jumping over fences and killing zombies in Shawn of the Dead or Nick Frost shooting two guns whilst jumping through the air in Hot Fuzz , then get your hangover cure ready to drink all the way to The World’s End . Edgar Wright ( Scott Pilgram versus the World ) returns to the helm of this third, and final, entry of the “ Blood and Ice Cream Trilogy .” Front man Simon Pegg and his right hand man Nick Frost along with a lineup of actors from the previous two films are back. After surviving the zombie apocalypse and ending the threat of the murderous Neighborhood Watch Alliance, they are ready to drink the night away, until everything goes horribly wrong. The World’s End introduces us to Gary King ( Pegg ). A down on his luck loser who is forever haunted by the one thing he never finished in his childhood, The Golden Mile; the task of having at least one pint at all twelve local pubs on the same night

The World's End Review By: MattInRC The appropriately-named The World's End is the funniest comedy of the year. If you've seen Actor Simon Pegg before his Star Trek: Into Darkness days, you'll remember him as the guy who created Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz , both hilarious takes on their respective genres. Since then, we've seen zombie and conspiracy flicks get a lot more serious leading to a 2013 Summer seemingly inundated with them. Luckily, Pegg's new project The World's End doesn't take itself too seriously, merging two seemingly unconnected things - drinking and alien invasion - into one of the funniest and most rewarding comedies we've seen in awhile. THE WORLD'S END Junket Interviews With Cast- Gary King ( Pegg ) is a washed-up drunken loser who can't seem to move on from his free teenage days. Institutionalized for a brief period and sporting the same 'trenchcoat fashion' from his youth, his best days are clea

We had the pleasure of being invited to attend  THE WORLD'S END  junket in San Francisco earlier this month.  And who other to send but our main man Nic Souza. Mr. Souza (if your nasty) also attended the junket for STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS in May for us. It was like Simon Pegg and Nic were best Friends when they sat down and talked this go around. The day after the San Francisco premier of the last entry in the Blood and Ice Cream trilogy The World's End , which was followed by a brief Q&A session with Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright , Here is Nic's interview below: I sat down for a round table interview with the trio. Interviewer: Last night during the brief Q&A, you talked about wanting to show parts of England that weren't London. Then in your movies you have parts of England that aren't London have zombies, they have murderers, they have what we see in this movie. Edgar Wright: Which is basically saying, “don't go to England.”

We had the chance to attend the Hollywood junket for Paranoia a few weeks ago and would like to thank Courtney for covering this for our site. Adam Cassidy ( Hemsworth ) is a recent college grad, trying to get ahead at his entry-level job at Wyatt Corporation. When the CEO ( Oldman ) enlists him as a company spy for his rival ( Ford ), Adam becomes a pawn in a corporate game bigger than he could have ever imagined. He must find a way out from under his ruthless boss who will stop at nothing to win a multi-billion dollar advantage. Expect her movie review this week. On Technology: LUKETIC : I was in Las Vegas yesterday and I lost my iPhone and I didn’t have a passcode on it. It’s a whole thing that’s going on right now. Sorry, you guys are all protected. [Laughter] Honestly, I’ve been an earlier adopter of technology since I was a kid. It’s always been part of my life. It’s always been there. This movie really sort of spoke to me. It’s something I’ve been thinking about
