Hall Pass red-band trailer: men be lovin' them some sex!
You'd think Owen Wilson's character wouldn't need to bother finding someone willing to have sex with him with that giant hand of his.

Review: Little Fockers

Little Fockers
Don't be fooled, the Focker sprogs appear merely as an excuse to make the title sound rude and to fuel a few recycled gags. Little Fockers is otherwise business as usual: good ol' family feudin' whilst Bob De Niro piles another layer of dirt onto the coffin that is his dying career. And for giggles, he drags Harvey Keitel down with him. Martin Scorsese must be very disappointed.

It holds the dubious title of Worst Pixar Film Ever, but Cars is nonetheless getting a sequel, and you can see the first teaser trailer here.

Review: Fantastic Mr. Fox

Fantastic Mr. Fox
Wes Anderson has always combined the neuroticism of Woody Allen with the visual flair of Michel Gondry to examine an assortment of fucked up families. Not exactly a winning formula for a kid's film, so it was a surprising move for Anderson to turn his attention to Roald Dahl's Fantastic Mr Fox. It shouldn't, but the melding of the over-active imaginations of Dahl and Anderson just about works.

Review: Marley & Me

Marley & Me
Rather like how Jennifer Aniston 'comedy' The Break-Up wasn't actually a comedy at all, the former Friend is heading up another fake-out - sold as a warm and bright shaggy rom-com, Marley & Me is actually a thoroughly depressing drama following man, woman and hound as they grow old together. Cat people likely won't give two smal...

Review: Drillbit Taylor

Drillbit Taylor
With comedy guru Judd Apatow on production duty and stoner du jour Seth Rogen credited as a co-writer, you might think this movie is a surefire smash: the last film that boasted those credentials made around $120 million. Unfortunately, Drillbit Taylor merely serves to represent the moment the 'Geek Clique' juggernaut hit its fi...

Review: The Darjeeling Limited

The Darjeeling Limited
Wes Anderson is one divisive dude. For every person who sees his movies as kitsch odysseys where dysfunctional families trade witty insults to an ultra-hip indie soundtrack, there's someone shrugging their shoulders, wondering why everyone is getting so excited by a scarf-wearing ponce making films about unbearably twee assholes...

Review: Night At The Museum

Night At The Museum
Boxing day; not a day traditionally associated with boxing by any means, or indeed any physical activity of the sort. No, in my borough, the day after Christmas is spent slumped on the sofa, consuming whatever's left of the family's confectionary, picking ones arse, and, if you're feeling especially adventurous, keeping the eye...

Review: Cars

Cars
Time was, a completely CG film was a cinematic rarity, something that could be cherished and enjoyed as a genuinely original experience, a piece of work that represented the pinnacle of technology in the industry and could be embraced in the same way our parents and grandparents first took to regular cel-based animation. These ...
