WELCOME TO THE RILEYS is a powerful drama that ultimately proves to be a film of redemption. It starts down one road and turns unexpectedly down another; as a matter of fact that is what’s so good about it, it avoids the usual clichés and plows very interesting territory in interesting ways, truly adult ways. I have to admit that the first 15 minutes or so left me rather cold, but then all of a sudden I found myself dragged into the story and really enjoying it.
Let me start out by saying that I have never seen Kristen Stewart in a role like she plays in Welcome to the Rileys. This is not teen heartthrob Kristen from the Twilight saga, and that’s a good thing. In fact, it’s the main reason to see her new film in the first place. That said, the supporting cast isn’t too shabby also with the likes of James Gandolfini and Melissa Leo.
This coming holiday season, the sixth highest-grossing worldwide film of all time, Tim Burton’s epic fantasy adventure ALICE IN WONDERLAND, will be the biggest film to ever release on the all-new Blu-ray 3D™ platform for the home in an all-new 4-Disc Combo Pack (Blu-ray 3D + Blu-ray™ + DVD + Digital Copy) by The Walt Disney Studios on December 7, 2010.
Fans will be the first to get an exclusive look at the brand-new trailer for Walt Disney Pictures “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides†in 3D on December 13, 2010, at AMC Downtown Disney Theatre 12 in Anaheim, California, as part of an exclusive “Pirates Fans First!†event.
It’s a Christina Aguilera concert with Cher as the guest performer, that’s the only way I can describe Burlesque an amazing musical drama that knocked me off my feet. Much like Chicago, Moulin Rouge and Cabaret the storyline is not why you go to see the film, it’s singing performance after singing performance from the amazing talent that graces the screen. Burlesque is a breath of fresh air in a season of action, adventure and animation.
