“Fool’s Paradise” Trailer, Images, Clips and Poster

Charlie Day directs and stars in this satirical comedy about a down-on-his-luck publicist, played by Ken Jeong. He discovers a recently released mental health patient, played by Charlie Day, whom he hopes will reboot his career.

The person with a mental health condition replaces a misbehaving movie star that looks just like him. The publicist substitutes him into the film, creating a new star. Despite the publicist’s decision to name him “Latte,” fame and fortune failed to bring the fulfillment he had hoped for.

Fool’s Paradise has a stellar cast, including Kate Beckinsale, Adrien Brody, the late Ray Liotta, Jason Sudeikis, Edie Falco, John Malkovich, Common and Jillian Bel.

Fool’s Paradise may be the late Liotta’s last film since he passed away after the film had wrapped production.

Poking fun at a mental health patient is not very kind and has nothing to do with a story about “anyone” can find success in the film business. The storyline steals from The Prince and the Pauper by Mark Twain.

Let’s find movies that expose the atrocities psychiatrists administer to these poor people in the name of “help.”

“The Only Boy Living in New York” Trailer and Clips

Directed by Marc Webb, whose eclectic work includes 500 Days of Summer, The Amazing Spider-man, and Gifted brings a nice little tale that’s been played before. Yet, this one has a similar scene from Breakfast at Tiffany’s.  You gotta love New York City, rain, taxi cab, and good-byes.

The movie has a pretty decent cast with familiar faces including Callum Turner, Jeff Bridges, Kate Beckinsale, Pierce Brosnan, Kiersey Clemons, and Cynthia Nixon.

The story follows a recent college graduate who is adrift in New York City and seeks the guidance of an eccentric neighbor as his life is upended by his father’s mistress.

I watched the movie on Amazon and totally enjoy the story.  The actors are great and the scene with Brosnan and Turner is incredible.

Surging and Unsurpassed “Underworld: Blood Wars” Trailer

Directed by Anna Foerster, we have the next installment of Underworld: Blood Wars. The story follows Vampire death dealer, Selene, played by Kate Beckinsale, and fends off brutal attacks from both the Lycan clan and the Vampire faction that betrayed her.

With her only allies, David, played by Theo James, and his father Thomas, played by Charles Dance, she must stop the eternal war between Lycans and Vampires, even if it means she has to make the ultimate sacrifice.

The cast also includes Lara Pulver, Tobias Menzies, Bradley James, and James Faulkner.
