Trailer: The Place Beyond The Pines

The way this trailer started off, I thought it was going to be about some action packed bank heisting! What I find instead was what appears to be a very deep and emotional film about the nature of paternal relationships and ...

Trailer: Welcome to the Punch

For a movie I've never heard of before, Welcome to the Punch looks like it could be a decent little action romp, or if nothing else, I've always enjoyed James McAvoy's and Mark Strong's performances. Honestly, though, I...

New poster for Michael Bay's Pain & Gain is all man

In the lull between his Transformers movies, Michael Bay has been working on something a bit more low-key, or at least as low-key as a Bay picture can get while still managing to be ridiculous. Pain & Gain stars Dway...

Isla Fisher in talks to star in Jackie Brown prequel

The ever lovely Isla Fisher is apparently in talks to co-star in the as-of-yet titled prequel to Jackie Brown, a thing I wasn't even aware existed. Based on the novel The Switch by Elmore Leonard, the film will follow Sa...

Chan-wook Park to direct a crime drama from Bond scribes

There is no shortage of love around Flixist for the brilliant Chan-wook Park. A master of his craft, he has directed several amazing films, most notably Oldboy, and has established a pedigree of Korean film making that is rar...

Trailer: Lawless (Red Band)

As the release date for John Hillcoat's Lawless approaches, a red band trailer has popped up for the Prohibition-era crime drama. It's much moodier than the previous trailer for Lawless, and it has me even more interested in...

Trailer: Seven Psychopaths

In Bruges was one of my absolute favorite movies from 2008. Hilarious, dark, poignant, and hilarious, the movie not only put Martin McDonagh in my mind, but made me remember that Colin Ferrel can be a great actor. Oh, a...

Soundtrack to John Hillcoat's Lawless may cause ear boner

Trailer: The Paperboy

While I'm a little disappointed this isn't an adaptation of the videogame Paperboy, it still looks pretty cool. Zac Efron plays a young journalist investigating the possibly-wrongful incarceration of a man (John Cusack, look...
