The Weinstein Company (TWC) has acquired from See-Saw Films and Bedlam Productions, all rights to “The Kings Speech†in North America, Germany, France, Benelux, Scandinavia, China, Hong Kong and Latin America.
The movie All About Steve can be summed up with a quick quip; It’s “Sandra Bullock on Crank.†The movie starts out with an absolutely great beginning that had me laughing at every turn, but midway though the film Bullock’s character becomes very annoying and the film spirals downward to it’s barely credible predictable ending.
It’s a bit drawn out, wicked and artsy, but I just couldn’t be sympathetic enough to like Lorna’s Silence. The film would be great for an audience that likes a riveting tale of a challenging life, except this one just doesn’t make the grade.
Basada en dos historias de la vida real, Julie y Julia entreteje las vidas de dos mujeres quienes, separadas en tiempo y espacio, se encuentran medio perdidas en su parte existencial hasta que cada una de ellas descubre que la combinacion perfecta en tre pasion, valentia y mantequilla hace que todo sea posible.

Apparition will release BLACK DYNAMITE in the U.S. on October 16. Directed and co-written by Scott Sanders, the film stars Michael Jai White as Black Dynamite, a gun-toting, nunchuck-wielding, ladies man willing to fight all the way from the blood-soaked city streets to the hallowed halls of the Honky House.
I have always been a big fan of the Final Destination movies and now seeing the latest release in 3D I’m even more impressed. In 3D everything in The Final Destination is tripled; the horror, suspense, gore, terror and panic. Whether you are a shock freak or just a lover of horror fiction this film should knock your socks off.
Ang Lee hits the mark with this excellent adaptation of Taking Woodstock from the memoirs of Elliot Tiber. Lee takes us back to that magical event in 1969 like no one has ever done before. I loved the way he got me involved in the storyline from the very beginning to his inevitable ending. Cool and groovy man!
