Directed by Eli Roth, The House with a Clock in Its Walls is a magical adventure. The movie follows a spine-tingling tale of 10-year-old Lewis, played by Owen Vaccaro.
Eli Roth credits pretty much rest on quite a few television series and some so-so horror movies.
You’ll recognize Vaccaro as the funny and spunky kid in Daddy’s Home movies.
Based on the children’s book written by John Bellairs and illustrated by Edward Gorey, Lewis goes to live with his uncle in a creaky old house with a mysterious tick-tocking heart. But his new town’s sleepy façade jolts to life with a secret world of warlocks and witches when Lewis accidentally awakens the dead.
The second poster shows all the characters with the imagery spellbinding.
The movie also stars Jack Black, Cate Blanchett, Kyle MacLachlan, Colleen Camp, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Vanessa Anne Williams, and Sunny Suljic.
The two movie clips so how the Lewis relates to the house and his uncle as well as his uncle’s neighbor. I have more clips available but two are block and one you can follow by clicking on the trailer at the each of either clip.
The second trailer is currently blocked worldwide, but hopefully, that is only temporary. The movie trailer is quite good and explains the whole story, which is helpful if you haven’t read the book.
Directed by Director X, SuperFly is a remake. The original played a significant role in the film industry.
Now, we have a remake, and the movie is being touted as reimagined. Director X introduces the movie’s genre to its characters, look, sound, and feel.
The screenplay is by Alex Tse, who also wrote movies like Watchmen and Sucker Free City. I never heard of these movies, but he is writing another remake—The Crow.
The second trailer tells more about the story as an actor narrates it.
Look at the movie trailer and see if the style, sound, and feel are befitting the original SuperFly.
Directed by Scott Cooper, Hostiles follows a stellar cast down a turbulent, powerful and decisively impressive western. The Blu-ray/DVD is now available with behind-the-scenes interviews and featurettes.
The movie is set in 1892 and focuses on a legendary Army captain, played by Christian Bale, who is ordered to escort a dying Cheyenne war chief, played by Wes Studi, back to his tribe and family. The captain unwillingly agrees to his assignment.
The journey is distressing and death-defying as they trailer from Fort Berringer to the grasslands of Montana. They chance upon a young widow, played by Rosamund Pike. Her family was brutally murdered on the plains.
She joins the journey and they all work together to overcome the challenging landscape, hostile Comanche, and ruthless frontiersmen they run into along the way.
Watching the trailers and clips, the movie is pure grit and action.
Directed by Jeremy Culver, No Postage Necessary follows Sam, played by George Blagden, who seems to make the wrong decision all the time. A convicted computer hacker, he’s single, jaded and barred from using the Internet.
Forced to crash on his brother’s couch, he makes ends meet by working at the local Twistee Treat and stealing mail while disguised as a postal worker. Then, a single pink envelope changes everything. Handwritten by a heartsick Josie, played by Charleene Closshey, to her late husband and fallen Marine, the tender missive awakens something in Sam.
Desperate to be worthy of such love, he conspires to meet the beautiful, young war widow, longing to become a better man. As the two grow closer, she warms to the idea of a new chance at love, but not before Sam’s past comes knocking in the form of an FBI agent looking for missing bitcoins.
No Postage Necessary was produced by Culver together with Charleene Closshey of Two Roads Picture Co. Closshey not only stars in the film as Josie but composed the film’s score.
Co-written and directed by Susanna Fogle, The Spy Who Dumped Me follows a pair of friends embark on an espionage adventure after one of them finds out her ex is a spy. Fogel wrote the funny, funny script with David Iserson.
Sam Heughan of Outlander fame is not the star of this comedy, but he will draw the Outlander fans. Mila Kunis who plays Audrey, Kate McKinnon, who plays Morgan, and Justin Theroux, who plays Drew, are the stars of the movie. They all look fantastic in the teaser trailer.
The energy in the featurette below tells us what is going to happen in the movie. Yes. Sam Heughan, our very own Jamie in Outlander, tells us about the movie.
The poster on the left is more realistic without the color motif of the other poster. Overall, the posters copy the James Bond design and theme, which is a complement to the 007 franchise. Outlander fans are super excited with Sam Heughan, their own Jamie, playing a role in this comedy-adventure.
I am excited to say you can now stream or purchase your own Blu-ray or DVD of The Spy Who Dumped Me. Here are the trailer and movie clip promoting the releases.
Screenwriter Dave Iserson talks about working with the actress, director, and even Sam Heughan. He praises Sam for his work and his fans. based on Outlander
The below movie clip is so funny. No Sam Heughan from Outlander, but that is okay. At least, we know the movie is a blast.
I am laughing so hard. The second trailer is even funnier and better. Plus, we get to see a lot of Sam Heughan, which is great for Outlander fans.
All I can say is the movie trailer is hilarious. It is so funny. I laughed and laughed.
Directed by Marielle Heller, the true story follows Melissa McCarthy as the best-selling celebrity biographer Lee Israel. The movie is written by Nicole Holofcener and Jeff Whitty and is based on Israel’s memoir.
Can You Ever Forgive Me? starts after Israel made her living in the 1970s and 80s, profiling celebrities such as Katharine Hepburn, Tallulah Bankhead, Estee Lauder, and journalist Dorothy Kilgallen.
Lee can no longer be published because, according to her memoir and movie, she has fallen out of step with current sensitivities. She decides to turn her talent into deception, aided by her loyal friend Jack, played by Richard E. Grant.
Heller is also an actor and earned several fellowships for her writing talent. A Diary of a Teenage Girl was her breakout movie as both writer and director, earning several awards, including the Spirit Award for Best First Feature Film.
The latest poster shows the main character, Israel, working in her office with a cascade of typewriters. I presume she used them to forge the letters.
I interviewed Nicole Holofcener over ten years ago and found it fate that she contributed to the screenplay. One particular comment I remember from my interview with Holofcener was about writing for film, “When I am writing, I am directing. I imagine every writer does because the picture is being said in a very specific way. The tone. Yes, I am always aware of how I would like it to look when writing it.”
Can You Forgive Me? appears to be Whitty’s first writing credit for a movie. He Won a Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical for Avenue Q. He also has several acting credits in both film and television.
These two featurettes talk about the main two characters playing off each other and the creativity of creating a 1981 look for the film.
The featurette shows how the director and McCarthy worked together to create Lee Israel.
Melissa McCarthy plays this scene so well with Ben Falcone. The narrowly used bookstore gives a foreboding presence.
The movie clip shows McCarthy’s talent. This movie looks good; hopefully, it moves along and keeps the audience interested.
The Elevator Pitch Featurette is priceless and tells us the story and scenes of the dynamic cast. I love this director.
McCarthy is taking on a severe subject compared to her usual comedic roles. I hope the movie does well for her career and all the talent involved.
I connected with the director, and I am unsure why, but I like her persona. She’s young with an exceptional future ahead of her.
I like perusing used bookstores. I found some autographed first prints and such. I understand what it is like to find a collector’s item. I discovered from visiting used bookstores that each bookstore has a distinct personality.
Melissa McCarthy received several nominations for her portrayal of Lee Israel. She is stellar in this movie. I saw it the other night and am impressed with her acting ability. The story itself is not that entertaining. But seeing McCarthy and Grant act together is delightful and compelling.
Directed by John Stevenson, Sherlock Gnomes is all too silly when Gnomeo, voiced by James McAvoy, and Juliet, voiced by Emily Blunt, arrive in the city with their friends and family. The major concern is establishing their new garden so it is ready by spring.
They soon discover that someone is kidnapping garden gnomes all over London. One day, Gnomeo and Juliet return home and find that everyone in their garden is missing. So, they hook up with Sherlock Gnomes, voiced by Johnny Depp, who is the famous detective and sworn protector of London’s garden gnomes.
He arrives with his sidekick Watson, voiced by Chiwetel Ejiofor, to investigate the case. The movie should be a fun adventure for the kids as they solve the case of the missing gnomes while exploring an undiscovered side of the city.
Other talented voice actors include Mary J. Blige as Irene, Sherlock’s former girlfriend. Michael Caine, as Lord Redbrick, the leader of the red gnomes, Juliet’s father, Maggie Smith as Lady Bluebury, the leader of the blue gnomes and Gnomeo’s mother, and Julie Walters as Ms. Montague.
Sherlock Gnomes is the sequel to the popular Gnomeo & Juliet, which grossed $194 million at the box office worldwide.
Co-written and directed by Max Winkler, Flower follows Erica Vandross, played by Zoey Deutch. Co-writer and produced by Matt Spicer the original screenplay was written by Alex McAulay, whose first novel Bad Girls was published in 2005.
Erica is a 17-year old daughter of a single mother Laurie, played by Kathryn Hahn. Her mother’s new boyfriend, played by Time Heidecker lives with them in San Fernando Valley.
Bob’s son Luke, played by Joey Morgan, arrives after rehab to live with the family. This throws a monkey wrench into Eric’s somewhat crazy life and now she is totally overwhelmed.
So, the story begins with Luke and Erica’s sidekicks Kala, played by Dylan Gelula, and Claudine, played by Maya Eshet, hanging out together. Erica decides to expose a dark secret of high-school teacher Will, played by Adam Scott, with results she wasn’t anticipating. Erica and her friends are growing up in unexpected and unpredictable ways.
Deutch mentioned during a red-carpet interview that they shot the movie in 16 days. Indicating its low-budget push to get the movie made.
The movie trailer and clips show Deutch is in every scene. Her sidekicks are off the beaten path but she seems “normal.” Is that how real friends are in High School?
Written and directed by Stanley Tucci, Final Portrait centers on world-renowned Swiss painter and sculptor Alberto Giacometti, played by Geoffrey Rush. The movie takes place in 1964, when James Lord, played by Armie Hammer, is on a short trip to Paris. Lord is an American writer and art lover. His friend, Giacometti, asks him to sit for a portrait. The process, Giacometti assures Lord, will take only a day. Flattered and captivated, Lord agrees.
The offbeat friendship twists and bends along through the eyes of the Lord. He learns about beauty, frustration, perceptiveness and the chaotic process of creating art. The story is about defining a genius and a friendship between two completely different men. Still, they bond in creativity.
Tucci is a well-known actor in such films as The Hunger Games movies, Julie & Julia, and Spotlight. He has directed memorable films like Big Night, The Imposter, and Blind Date. Hammer starred recently in Call Me By Your Name and has other credits like The Social Network and The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
The trailer and clips reveal a great movie and an excellent character study of an artistic genius.
Based on the play of the same name by Anton Chekhov, written for the screen by Stephen Karam, and directed by Michael Mayer, The Seagull is a pure classic. The story is an actor’s dream to play one of the characters of the poignant and crucifying Russian play, which was first on stage in 1896.
The cast is brilliant with four very strong actresses including Saoirse Ronan, Annette Bening, Elizabeth Moss, and Mare Winningham.
The movie follows an aging actress named Irina Arkadina, played by Annette Benning, who spends her summers visiting with her brother Pjotr Nikolayevich Sorin, played by Brian Dennehy, and her son Konstantin, played by Billy Howle, on a country estate.
On one occasion, she brings Trigorin, a successful novelist, played by Corey Stoll, with her. Nina, played by Saoirse Ronan, a free and innocent girl on a neighboring estate, falls in love with Trigorin.
As Trigorin lightly consumes and then rejects Nina, so the actress, Arkadina, all her life has consumed and rejected her son, who loves Nina. The victims are destroyed while the sophisticates continue on their way.
If you are familiar with Chekov’s play, you know the ending of the four-act play. I doubt the movie will be as long.
The movie trailer is very good and shows the conflict between the Nina, Irina, Trigorin, and Konstantin. The supporting cast, such as Elizabeth Moss, appears to offer comic relief. Moss’ last line in the trailer is an awesome delivery.
Directed by Eli Roth, The House with a Clock in Its Walls is a magical adventure. The movie follows a spine-tingling tale of 10-year-old Lewis, played by Owen Vaccaro.
The second poster shows all the characters with the imagery spellbinding.
