The little bit of charm and humour present in the first Hot Tub Time Machine was syphoned out for this uninspired, unfunny sequel.
Jake Kasdan’s Sex Tape isn’t a good movie by any stretch, but it also isn’t inherently unfair to its audience.
Hilarious, spunky, and incredibly human, In a World is the rare kind of rewarding comedy that audiences rarely get. A triumph for first time feature writer, director, and star Lake Bell.
Deeply funny and as uncomfortable as a forced vacation with the worst members of your family, The Way, Way Back is a summertime classic in the waiting.
It's aimed very squarely at only the youngest of moviegoers, but Escape from Planet Earth will do its target demographic proud.
We talk to the director and co-writer (and Kitchner, Ontario natives) Cal Brunker and Bob Barlen from the animated adventure Escape from Planet Earth about their nearly life long collaborative process, working with Breandan Fraser and Rob Corddry, using 3-D effectively, and how to give life to a wacky waving arm flailing inflatable tube man.
Clever and extremely well directed by Jonathan Levine, the romantic zombie comedy Warm Bodies takes a plethora of different genre elements, puts them to good use, and never once hides its desires to be nothing more than pure entertainment.
We catch up with Warm Bodies leading zombie Nicholas Hoult to talk about making the walking dead sympathetic, working with director Jonathan Levine, creating chemistry with a co-stars when you can’t speak in a scene, and what it’s like to get the actual walking part of being a zombie just right.
Bolstered by a great sense of pacing, a darkly comedic sensibility, and the best performance of Steve Carell's career thus far, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World has a sense of warmth and humanity many films this summer have been missing.
Of all the months this summer, June has become so stacked that we had to divide our summer movie preview up into two parts! Today, we take a look at Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted, Magic Mike, That's My Boy, Safety Not Guaranteed, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, and G.I. Joe: Retaliation!
