Magical “Luca” Challenges the Imagination Startling and Astonishing Story

Directed by Enrico Casarosa, Luca is about a young boy, played by Jacob Tremblay. The story follows his experiences that include an unforgettable seaside summer along the Italian Riviera. Filled with pasta, gelato and endless scooter rides, Luca shares these adventures with his newfound best friend.

The catch is all the fun they have together barely holds together by a deeply held secret. They are sea monsters from another world — just below the ocean’s surface.

The story seems a mixture of Guillermo del Toro’s Shape of Water and Hayao Miyazaki’s Ponyo. Of course, Pixar holds back the complete plot of their stories until they’re released.

The screenplay is by Jesse Andrews and Mike Jones. The rest of the cast includes Maya Rudolph and Jack Dylan Grazer.

“Good Boys” Poster, Clip, Featurette & Trailers

With a name like Gene Stupnitsky, Good Boys is a perfect movie for him to direct with movie actors producing – Lee Eisenberg and Seth Rogen.

The movie follows three grade-school boys who panic after being invited to his first kissing party, Max, played by Jacob Tremblay. He had never kissed a girl before, and his rites of passage had arrived.

In need of pointers on how to kiss a girl, Max and his best friends Thor and Lucas, played by Brady Noon and Keith L. Williams, come up with some bright ideas. They borrow Max’s dad’s drones to spy on a teenage couple making out next door.

But when things go ridiculously wrong, the drone is destroyed. Desperate to replace the drone, Max’s dad, played by Will Forte, gets home; the boys skip school and set off on an odyssey of bad decisions. Their odyssey involves accidentally stolen drugs, frat-house paintball, and running from both the cops and terrifying teenage girls, played by Molly Gordon and Midori Francis. 

The movie is available on Blu-ray, DVD, and streaming. It did poorly at the box office, so now you can watch it at home. The bonus features are an alternative ending and ten extended or deleted scenes.  

Watch the red-band trailer and decide if you can’t believe they have boys saying and doing these things.

The second trailer reiterates how disgusting this movie will be. It is funny at some points, but the raunchy jokes are gross.

The following movie clip shows how south this movie goes. There are R-rated clips, but I decided not to show them. Tactless!

Astonishing “Predator” Trailers, Posters, and Blu-ray & DVD

Directed by Shane Black, the new tale of The Predator arrives from outer reaches of space and lands in the small-town streets of suburbia. Though it appears innocent, Black brings a different twist this time compared to the original starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The hunt comes home with children and parents. The most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter, and deadlier than ever before. They have genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species.

In the movie trailer, it shows a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth. Who is going to save the day this time? A ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher will join forces to save the end of the human race.

The ensemble cast includes Boyd Holbrook, Trevante Rhodes, Jacob Tremblay, Keegan-Michael Key, Olivia Munn, Sterling K. Brown, Alfie Allen, Thomas Jane, Augusto Aguilera, Jake Busey, and Yvonne Strahovski.

The movie is streaming and is available on Blu-ray and DVD if you didn’t get a chance to see the film in the theaters, now you can.

The red band trailer tells more of the story. It appears a human male transforms into a predator. So, he is half human and half predator. What does that mean? The red band label is because one of the male characters says something raunchy.

The latest poster is so wicked with a sophisticated touch. The orange background flourishes with spicy motives. The predator’s hand on a predator’s head with a spine is clockwork orange expression. Kubrick would be proud.

Shane Black is legendary for screenwriting the top scripts for movies like Lethal WeaponThe Long Kiss Goodbye, and The Last Boy Scout. In an interview with Robert Downey, Jr., Downey praised Black’s work on Iron Man 3.
