Movie Reviews and Previews Turtles & Models I had no idea there were more Ninja Turtle movies on the way. So I had to ask Sarah, the Ninja Turtle expert, even though she wouldn’t want to be known as such, if they were shooting a sequel. Apparently, yes. Fine. I can live with that. But WHY By Lainey • Mar 26, 2015 12:20 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Sam Taylor-Johnson is done Not exactly a surprise. Sam Taylor-Johnson didn’t bother trying to pretend during interviews leading up to the release of Fifty Shades Of Grey that there wasn’t creative conflict between her and author EL James. So the speculation that she would not return to direct the sequels was By Lainey • Mar 26, 2015 09:35 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Vin Diesel’s Furious Oscar I used to hate Vin Diesel. There were rumours about how he behaved on set, how he treated people. Then, he kinda went gossip quiet. And after that he started showing me his dance and lip-synch on line to Rihanna and Beyonce and Katy Perry. Even Sarah didn’t By Lainey • Mar 25, 2015 02:18 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews Great. Do they finally come? Fifty Shades Of Grey will be released on DVD on May 8. They want your money so they’re promising that this version will be “unrated”, with an alternate ending and new scenes. Like… Come scenes? One of my biggest problems (aside from Jamie Dornan’s overall discomfort) with the By Lainey • Mar 24, 2015 05:37 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Michael Fassbender’s Western romance Michael Fassbender’s passion project, the Western Slow West, is currently making the festival rounds and is expected in theaters later this year. It’s the feature film debut of Scottish writer/director John Maclean and it’s produced by Fassbender’s shingle, DMC, and it looks very, very cool. By Sarah • Mar 24, 2015 04:57 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Liam Neeson’s Run All Night Here’s Liam Neeson promoting Run All Night in Madrid today. Run All Night is the third team-up of director Jaume Collet-Sera and Liam Neeson, following Unknown and Non-Stop, and it is the least satisfying of the Not Taken, But Like Taken trilogy. And like the actual By Sarah • Mar 24, 2015 12:27 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Sean Penn: the Geriaction Gunman I misjudged The Gunman based on its trailer. I thought it was going to be a preachy political thriller, but it’s actually a Taken knock-off with Sean Penn starring as Liam Neeson Revenge Man. Oh, there’s some moralizing—undoubtedly Penn used his power as producer and co- By Sarah • Mar 24, 2015 11:36 am
Xenu The 2 Tom Cruises I love the Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation trailer that Sarah posted yesterday – click here for a refresher. As she wrote, it’s pure ridiculous action movie fun. It knows exactly what it is. It doesn’t aim to be anything more. And Tom Cruise’s level of frustration when he By Lainey • Mar 24, 2015 11:09 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Mission: Impossible – Physics Free Following a report that the ending of the movie may or may not be a mess, we finally have the first trailer for Mission Impossible 5, now officially titled Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation (a title that necessitated a hastily-done deal with Disney). The trailer is chock full of balls- By Sarah • Mar 23, 2015 12:49 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession JLO & Slum Bear at Home Jennifer Lopez and her kids, Emme and Max, were at the Home premiere in LA yesterday. That’s why she only took it to a level 5 on the hard-posing with the open mouth. You know who else was there? Her best friend, Leah Remini. And… Casper Smart, the By Lainey • Mar 23, 2015 12:33 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Shailene Woodley in Insurgent review This may be the most challenging review I’ve ever written. For one thing, YA dystopia stories are not my bag. For another, I have neither read nor seen Divergent, so I’m walking into this franchise blind, as it were. And finally, Insurgent isn’t a real movie, so By Sarah • Mar 23, 2015 11:10 am
Maple Leaf Ryan Reynolds confirms it’s James We’ve known that it’s James for a while now. But we’ve never heard it from Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds…until now. Reynolds is doing press for The Woman In Gold, opening April 1. Jesus, it is April already??? Anyway, during an interview with The Today Show, By Lainey • Mar 20, 2015 10:58 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Cara is Margo Model becomes an actress. You’re like, whatever, because you still remember seeing Cindy Crawford in Fair Game. Nine times out of ten I would agree with you. But my best memory from TIFF 2014 was that I found out that Cara Delevingne can act. It was a film called By Lainey • Mar 19, 2015 05:07 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The Avengers must be playing baseball That’s my takeaway from the new extended TV spot for Avengers: Age of Ultron—they must be playing baseball. This spot features a lot of new footage, including Thor swinging for the fences using his hammer as the bat and Captain America’s shield as the ball. Easily the By Sarah • Mar 19, 2015 03:34 pm
