The Mule Trailer – Clint Eastwood is an octogenarian drug runner opposite Bradley Cooper

October 7, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Clint Eastwood hasn’t starred in a film since 2012’s Trouble With The Curve, and hasn’t appeared in a movie he’s also directed since 2008’s Gran Torino. However, now he’s back pulling double duty in The Mule.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Clint Eastwood stars as Earl Stone, a man in his 80s who is broke, alone, and facing foreclosure of his business when he is offered a job that simply requires him to drive.  Easy enough, but, unbeknownst to Earl, he’s just signed on as a drug courier for a Mexican cartel.  He does well—so well, in fact, that his cargo increases exponentially, and Earl is assigned a handler.  But he isn’t the only one keeping tabs on Earl; the mysterious new drug mule has also hit the radar of hard-charging DEA agent Colin Bates.  And even as his money problems become a thing of the past, Earl’s past mistakes start to weigh heavily on him, and it’s uncertain if he’ll have time to right those wrongs before law enforcement, or the cartel’s enforcers, catch up to him.’

The Mule is in UK Cinemas January 2019. Bradley Cooper, Laurence Fishburne, Michael Peña, Dianne Wiest and Andy Garcia also star. Take a look at the trailer below. [Read more…]

A Star Is Born Trailer – Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper star in the long-gestating remake

June 6, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The 1937 movie A Star Is Born has already had two remakes (featuring Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand), and for several years another one has been in the works. At one point Clint Eastwood was directing with Beyonce slated for the central role. When that fell through, Bradley Cooper stepped in to both act in the movie and to make it his feature directorial debut, with Lady Gaga signed up to show off her acting skills.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘“A Star is Born” stars four-time Oscar nominee Bradley Cooper (“American Sniper,” “American Hustle,” “Silver Linings Playbook”) and multiple award-winning, Oscar-nominated music superstar Lady Gaga, in her first leading role in a major motion picture. Cooper helms the drama, marking his directorial debut.

‘In this new take on the tragic love story, he plays seasoned musician Jackson Maine, who discovers—and falls in love with—struggling artist Ally (Gaga). She has just about given up on her dream to make it big as a singer… until Jack coaxes her into the spotlight. But even as Ally’s career takes off, the personal side of their relationship is breaking down, as Jack fights an ongoing battle with his own internal demons.

‘The cast of “A Star is Born” also includes Andrew Dice Clay, with Dave Chappelle and Sam Elliott.

‘In addition to playing Ally, Gaga, who earned her Oscar nod for the song “Til It Happens to You” from “The Hunting Ground,” performs original songs in the film, which she wrote with Cooper and a handful of artists, including Lukas Nelson, Jason Isbell and Mark Ronson. All the music is original and was recorded live.’

A Star Is Born is due out in October. Take a look at the first trailer and poster below. [Read more…]

First Look At Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper In A Star Is Born Remake

April 17, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

With a quick glance at the pic above, you might be thinking the title of this post is a lie. But while she looks a little different to the often outlandish and poised pop star she normally is, that is indeed Lady Gaga with Bradley Cooper in the pic above. However, it looks like she’ll be going by her real name, Stefani Germanotta, for the movie.

Warner Brothers describes the movie as a reimagining of the classic A Star Is Born, which has come to the screen three times before, in 1937 with Janet Gaynor and Fredric March, in 1950 with Judy Garland and James Mason and in 1976 with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.

In this version Bradley Cooper will be country music star Jackson Maine, who’s career is on the skids. He discovers Ally (Germanotta) and helps her find huge success. While they begin to fall for one another, things become increasingly difficult as his career fails while hers goes through the roof.

As well as starring, the film will also mark Bradley Cooper’s feature directorial debut. Don’t expect to see the movie for a while though, as it’s not currently due out until September 2018. It’s likely the first pic was released due to the fact that Gaga has been onstage at Coachella filming the movie in the last few days.

New Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Trailer – Say hello to Star Lord’s dad, Kurt Russell

March 1, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Although we’ve had a couple of promos for the excellent looking Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, one thing we haven’t seen is Kurt Russell as Star Lord’s father, Ego the Living Planet. That’s now been remedied with a new trailer – although you have to wait until the very end to see him. Oddly, he does look like he really could be Chris Pratt’s dad.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” is directed by James Gunn and stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, featuring Vin Diesel as Groot, Bradley Cooper as Rocket, Michael Rooker, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Elizabeth Debicki, Chris Sullivan, Sean Gunn, Tommy Flanagan, Laura Haddock and Kurt Russell. Kevin Feige is producing, and Louis D’Esposito, Jonathan Schwartz, Victoria Alonso, Nik Korda and Stan Lee are the executive producers. The screenplay is by James Gunn. Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” blasts into UK cinemas April 28th 2017.’

Take a look at the new promo below. It’s certainly looks like it’s gonna be another good one, and the early rumours suggest Marvel and James Gun have done it again. [Read more…]

February 6, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Guardians Of The Galaxy certainly wasn’t lacking in action, but it appears that they may be upping the stakes for Volume 2, as this new Extended Look is packed to the brim with sci-fi fighting, flying and general craziness. They may also be bidding for having the world’s cutest character with Baby Groot.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” is directed by James Gunn and stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, featuring Vin Diesel as Groot, Bradley Cooper as Rocket, Michael Rooker, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Elizabeth Debicki, Chris Sullivan, Sean Gunn, Tommy Flanagan, Laura Haddock and Kurt Russell.

Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” blasts into UK cinemas April 28th 2017.’

Take a look at the new promo below. It’s certainly got a lot of promise. [Read more…]

War Dogs (Blu-ray Review)

December 27, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Miles Teller, Jonah Hill, Ana De Armas, Bradley Cooper, Kevin Pollak
Director: Todd Phillips
Running Time: 116 mins
Certificate: 15
Release Date: December 26th 2016 (UK)

Life isn’t going as well as young David Packouz (Miles Teller) hoped. He’s stuck offering massages to middle-aged businessmen and wishing for something better. Then his old, rather wild, friend Efraim (Jonah Hill) returns to Miami from LA and offers David an opportunity.

Efraim is using a new government initiative to hopefully get rich. After a few scandals, President George W. Bush has opened up all government contracts to bids from private companies of any size, and that includes defence contracts. Efraim wants David to help him get the smaller arms contracts that the big companies are ignoring. That usually involved helping outfit the Iraqi or Afghani armies rather than the US military itself.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Trailer – Chris Pratt’s Star Lord and the crew are back

December 4, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

guardians-of-the-galaxy-vol-2-teaser-slideIt’s easy to forget that before it was released Guardians of the Galaxy seemed like a massive gamble for Marvel. It was based on a property that wasn’t as well-known as the likes of Hulk, Iron Man and Captain America, had a very different tone to other Marvel movies, and its more explicitly sci-fi setting didn’t match what we’d seen from the Marvel Universe up to that point.

Now it seems obvious it was going to be a huge success, but that’s only because all the pieces came together perfectly, from the smart decision to hire James Gunn as writer/director, to casting Chris Pratt as Peter Quill/Star Lord. Now it’s on its way back with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, which has just released its first trailer.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” is directed by James Gunn and stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, featuring Vin Diesel as Groot, Bradley Cooper as Rocket, Michael Rooker, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Elizabeth Debicki, Chris Sullivan, Sean Gunn, Tommy Flanagan, Laura Haddock and Kurt Russell. Kevin Feige is producing, and Louis D’Esposito, Jonathan Schwartz, Victoria Alonso, Nik Korda and Stan Lee are the executive producers. The screenplay is by James Gunn. Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” blasts into UK cinemas April 28th 2017.’ [Read more…]

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Teaser – Star Lord and the crew are back

October 19, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

guardians-of-the-galaxy-vol-2-poster-slide2Many wondered whether the intergalactic adventures of Guardians of the Galaxy would be a flop, but it ended up being one of their biggest hits, ensuring a sequel is on its way. It reunites the main cast and creative forces for what this first teaser suggests will be another fun adventure.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Set to the all-new sonic backdrop of Awesome Mixtape #2, Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” continues the team’s adventures as they traverse the outer reaches of the cosmos. The Guardians must fight to keep their newfound family together as they unravel the mystery of Peter Quill’s true parentage. Old foes become new allies and fan-favorite characters from the classic comics will come to our heroes’ aid as the Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to expand.

Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” is directed by James Gunn and stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, featuring Vin Diesel as Groot, Bradley Cooper as Rocket, Michael Rooker, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Elizabeth Debicki, Chris Sullivan, Sean Gunn, Tommy Flanagan, Laura Haddock and Kurt Russell.

Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” blasts into cinemas in UK on 28th April, 2017.’ [Read more…]

Lady Gaga In Talks For Bradley Cooper’s A Star Is Born Remake

June 18, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

lady-gagaThe idea of once more remaking A Star Is Born (it’ll be the third or fourth remake, depending on how you count) has been around a long time, and has been through a long list of actors and directors. It’s still alive, with Bradley Cooper planning to both helm and star in the movie.

What he hasn’t had is a female lead. Beyonce was attached for a long time, but she’s since dropped out. THR reports Cooper may have found another top chanteuse to replace her, as Lady Gaga is rerportedly in talks to join the movie.

A Star Is Born follows  a young woman with dreams of a singing career who meets a famous actor. However as her career rises, his self-destructs thanks to his alcoholism. It’s previously been filmed in 1937 with Janet Gaynor and Fredric March (which itself was technically a remake), 1954 with Judy Garland and James Mason starring, and 1976 with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.

Joy Trailer – Jennifer Lawrence invents the miracle mop for director David O. Russell

October 21, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

joy-teaser-posterJennifer Lawrence reunites with director David O. Russell (American Hustle, Silver Linings Playbook) with a new film – all about mops. Well, sort of, as it’s about the inventor of the Miracle Mop, although as the trailer shows, it’s perhaps more mob movie (with a dash of comedy) than flowery biopic.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘JOY is the wild story of a family across four generations centered on the girl who becomes the woman who founds a business dynasty and becomes a matriarch in her own right. Betrayal, treachery, the loss of innocence and the scars of love, pave the road in this intense emotional and human comedy about becoming a true boss of family and enterprise facing a world of unforgiving commerce. Allies become adversaries and adversaries become allies, both inside and outside the family, as Joy’s inner life and fierce imagination carry her through the storm she faces. Jennifer Lawrence stars, with Robert De Niro, Bradley Cooper, Edgar Ramirez, Isabella Rossellini, Diane Ladd, and Virginia Madsen. Like David O. Russell’s previous films, Joy defies genre to tell a story of family, loyalty, and love.’

Joy is in UK cinemas 1st January 2016. Take a look at the new trailer below. [Read more…]
