Movie Reviews and Previews Sebastian Stan in The Bronze He is not the star, but the only part of this movie you care about is the much-ballyhooed sex scene between Sebastian Stan’s gold-medal winning gymnast, Lance Tucker, and Melissa Rauch’s bronze medalist, Hope Ann Greggory. So does it live up to all that Sundance hype? Pretty much, By Sarah • Mar 22, 2016 01:02 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Adam Sandler’s latest filmed vacation Yesterday the teaser for Adam Sandler’s next vacation enjoyed on Netflix’s dime was released, announcing that The Do-Over will be released on May 27. That puts it up against X-Men: Apocalypse, which fuels my theory that Sandler really wants to be in a superhero movie. No one is By Sarah • Mar 22, 2016 10:35 am
Smutty Surgery Ben Affleck’s changing tattoo Countdown to Batman vs Superman. It doesn’t have much competition this weekend either. Or the week after that. So it’s free to dominate the box office for at least two or three weeks. Which is great for Warner Bros. Because, as Sarah has noted several times already, BvS By Lainey • Mar 21, 2016 09:29 am

Movie Reviews and Previews Shailene Woodley in The Divergent Series: Allegiant Last year Insurgent was one of the stupidest, most boring movies I saw. This year, Allegiant is sure to be one of the stupidest, most boring movies I see. It is infuriating to sit through a sequel that makes all the same mistakes as its predecessor, but that is exactly By Sarah • Mar 18, 2016 12:59 pm
Gorgessity Jennifer Garner is feeling herself I interviewed Jennifer Garner a few years ago for a movie called The Odd Life Of Timothy Green. Going into that interview, she wasn’t my favourite. But I could find nothing to criticise about the experience. She was there to do her job. So she was warm. She was By Lainey • Mar 17, 2016 05:30 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Everyone looks bored in X-Men: Apocalypse The X-Men movies are wildly uneven, ranging from “highly enjoyable” to “utterly godawful”, but the prequel trilogy starring James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, and Jennifer Lawrence has generally been good. That’s a great ensemble making fun movies that are good for the most part. But the trailers for the latest By Sarah • Mar 17, 2016 02:07 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Harry Potter f*cks over some magicians … Is the best way of describing Now You See Me 2, judging by the new trailer. If you remember the first one—and why would you?—Morgan Freeman ended up in jail because Mark Ruffalo was the best magician in the world, or something like that. So the sequel is By Sarah • Mar 17, 2016 12:39 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Who is Henry Cavill? Henry Cavill is promoting Batman vs Superman. It opens next week. We’ve been waiting – or told to wait – for two years. And it needs to be a big deal. Ben Affleck, undeniably, is a big deal. That’s only half the equation though. Is Henry Cavill a big deal? By Lainey • Mar 17, 2016 11:09 am

Movie Reviews and Previews Olivia Wilde was “too old” Olivia Wilde was on Howard Stern this week. She’s promoting Vinyl, which I haven’t started watching yet, and I should, but again – there is SO MUCH GOOD TV! Anyway, she starts talking about working with Martin Scorsese (he’s producing Vinyl) and reveals that she auditioned for Wolf By Lainey • Mar 16, 2016 04:12 pm
TV Updates Timothy Olyphant appears Lainey usually hogs the Timothy Olyphant photos but she let me have these new shots of Olyphant on stage because I miss Justified so terribly and this is usually the time of year when I’m recapping Justified but there is no more Justified to be recapped and I’m By Sarah • Mar 16, 2016 02:45 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Jennifer Garner in Miracles from Heaven Let’s start by acknowledging that I am a cynical asshole and not at all this movie’s target audience. Miracles from Heaven was not made for me but I have to review it anyway, and I do so knowing full well that what I identify as problems won’t By Sarah • Mar 16, 2016 12:46 pm
Quiveration Grey on Grey They’re shooting the Fifty Shades Of Grey sequel in Vancouver right now. There have been a lot of photos taken of the actors on set. I haven’t posted many, or any, because they haven’t been all that interesting until now. Not that this is really, really interesting. By Lainey • Mar 16, 2016 11:48 am
