Bad Style Did this look different in his mirror? Jude Law loves a deep V. And a low scoop neck. Going through an airport, I get it. Meeting friends for brunch, sure. Here? Underneath a white-lined velvet jacket? I don’t understand this. I don’t know that anyone else but Jude thinks this looks good. If I had By Lainey • May 27, 2015 03:58 pm
Media Manipulation Tom Cruise in the 70s Tom Cruise is trying to make orange his colour in Georgia on the set of Mena today. I’m not sure if he’s also trying, unsuccessfully, to make himself Jon Hamm in the pants. Probably just a handkerchief. In other Tom news, remember what I said about how he By Lainey • May 27, 2015 11:33 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Point Break remake is the dumbest thing on Earth I am not in favor of a Point Break remake, since Point Break is already a f*cking masterpiece of dumbass cinema. It’s the perfect combination of a stupid as sh*t idea and Kathryn Bigelow’s technical mastery behind the camera, starring Peak Patrick Swayze and Rising Keanu By Sarah • May 27, 2015 10:12 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Ryan Gosling & Feminist Mad Max Ryan Gosling was photographed yesterday in Hollywood, apparently on break from shooting The Big Short in New Orleans. He looks really good here. Last time I posted pictures of him he had dark hair (click here for a refresher) and I still haven’t washed the bad flavour away yet. By Lainey • May 27, 2015 09:50 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Australia REALLY hates Johnny Depp Johnny Depp and Amber Heard left Australia yesterday – click here to see shots of them trying to avoid paps in their car on the way to their private jet. Earlier in the day, the Australian senate held a meeting to decide whether or not he would be charged for violating By Lainey • May 26, 2015 03:59 pm
Maple Leaf Rachel at the wedding There was a screening for Southpaw in Cannes on Friday. And some reported that Rachel McAdams was there alongside Jake Gyllenhaal. But on Saturday she was in Muskoka, 2 or so hours outside of Toronto, for her sister Kayleen’s wedding. Pretty sure, given how close she is to her By Lainey • May 26, 2015 01:30 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews World War Z determined to break my heart even more World War Z is one of my favorite books. It’s brilliant, not just as a piece of genre fiction but as socio-political satire. The movie version starring Brad Pitt which was released in 2013 is an abomination and no recent movie has broken my heart the way that World By Sarah • May 26, 2015 12:45 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Melissa McCarthy redeemed I loved Melissa McCarthy on Gilmore Girls, so I was glad to see her get a mainstream break in Bridesmaids in 2011, but nothing McCarthy did after that lived up to the promise of Bridesmaids. That movie made McCarthy seemed like a comedic tour de force, someone with the ability By Sarah • May 26, 2015 11:11 am
Media Manipulation Bond in a great coat Check out Daniel Craig in London on Sunday night shooting Bond Spectre. God he looks great in that ¾ coat. Actually, no, he looks great in both coats. Spectre is due in theatres November 6. That…doesn’t feel like it’s too far away. And I feel like it doesn’ By Lainey • May 26, 2015 10:48 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Michael Fassbender in Slow West A crafty subversion of the Western genre, Slow West is in turns hypnotic, lyrical, and absurd. It’s a pitch-black dark comedy centered on a hopelessly romantic quest that’s more interested in episodic beats than it is a cohesive narrative, which means it won’t be for everyone. Slow By Sarah • May 26, 2015 10:26 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Alicia & Michael in Monaco Macbeth was screened at Cannes to very strong reviews for everything – the performances, the cinematography, the pace of the story… And for a minute there it looked like it might contend for the Palme d’Or. Instead, it ended up being Jacques Audiard’s Dheepan. That doesn’t mean it By Lainey • May 25, 2015 01:06 pm
Media Manipulation Chris Pratt’s pre-apology Chris Pratt is about to start heavy press for Jurassic World. So he posted a pre-apology on Facebook in the event that he f-cks up during an interview. It’s wonderful. He is wonderful. Let’s read it together first: I want to make a heartfelt apology for whatever it By Lainey • May 25, 2015 11:29 am
Bad Style Yellow is not her best colour Sarah reviewed Tomorrowland in the previous post – click here for a refresher. And while the movie topped the box office for Memorial Day weekend, the actual number isn’t great. The number will need to grow overseas in order for it not to be considered a loss. That’s true By Lainey • May 25, 2015 10:44 am
Movie Reviews and Previews George Clooney in Tomorrowland I have a thing with Damon Lindelof and his mystical sci-fi bullsh*t, in that Damon Lindelof and his mystical sci-fi bullsh*t keeps ruining otherwise interesting ideas (see also: Lost, Cowboys & Aliens, Prometheus, World War Z, Star Trek Into Darkness). Credit where credit is due, The Leftovers is By Sarah • May 25, 2015 10:22 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Assassin is a contender The Assassin was the film that Sarah was most excited about ahead of Cannes. This is how she described it in her preview: Taiwanese director Hou Hsiao-Hsien is arguably one of the greatest directors in the world and he has a new martial arts film, The Assassin, about a ninth By Lainey • May 22, 2015 01:25 pm
BFFs Zoe & Jake Jake Gyllenhaal was also at the amfAR gala last night and spent some time hanging out with Zoe Kravitz. I’m about to put Zoe Kravitz on my Five List. Am obsessed with her. She’s a charismatic performer. Even though she’s active on social media, she still manages By Lainey • May 22, 2015 12:05 pm
