Movie Reviews and Previews Finnick... The new cover of Entertainment Weekly -- Jennifer Lawrence and Sam Claflin as Katniss and Finnick in Catching Fire with a still from the movie on the inside.

BFFs Emma & Ryan Been in LA since Friday to cover 4 junkets, including Gangster Squad and the LA premiere last night. Ryan Gosling wore the sh-t out of his brown suit. And his shoes...

Movie Reviews and Previews Eddie Redmayne, Christian Grey At this point, who HASN’T been mentioned for Christian Grey? Wait, I know... Anthony Mackie. Anthony Mackie should be Christian Grey. Anyway, yesterday I wrote about Eddie Redmayne and how, after Les Miserables, he’s now a teen heartthrob. And then many of you shouted back that he appeals By Lainey • Jan 08, 2013 11:36 am

Movie Reviews and Previews The case against Les Miserables Many of you have emailed to fret about some of the reviews. Les Miserables is currently sitting at 72% on Rotten Tomatoes and 61% on Metacritic which doesn’t suck, no, but there have indeed been certain critics who’ve been vicious in their disdain: it’s so melodramatic, and By Lainey • Dec 24, 2012 01:13 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews What to Watch When Christmas Turns You Quaint I live in New York City. I waste hours a day on the internet. I have serious guilt about my Amazon usage. I’m bloggin’. The point I’m trying to make is that I’ve pretty much embraced modern urban life. But something changes every year when the holidays By Dean • Dec 20, 2012 02:30 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Baz makes Leo so pretty Leonardo DiCaprio was never so pretty as he was for Baz Luhrmann in Romeo + Juliet. As Dean wrote last week when he eulogised Leo’s sexiness -- click here for a refresher -- that’s the Leo we keep clinging to, the one we see with our memories instead of having to By Lainey • Dec 20, 2012 01:11 pm
Media Manipulation The Jolie is not making a movie about Robsten But f-ck, why not? Deadline reported yesterday that Angelina Jolie will direct a movie called Unbroken. #RobstenIsUnbroken? Yes. But no. But let’s put #RobstenIsUnbroken on our Best of 2012 list anyway, shall we? The Twi-Hard meltdown exceeded all of our expectations. If you can believe it, Nutty By Lainey • Dec 19, 2012 10:48 am
Movie Reviews and Previews I like the red field A new trailer for Star Trek Into Darkness was released yesterday this time with more focus on Chris Pine’s Kirk who must battle a new adversary but, mostly, his own arrogance. Of course. His family is at risk. Everything is falling apart. They must run through an awesome red By Lainey • Dec 18, 2012 11:36 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Lone Ranger looks sh-tty, will make money anyway The second trailer for Disney’s The Lone Ranger is out and oh God, it looks hilariously awful. Not because of Johnny Depp as Tonto, but because it just looks like a clichéd, bloated summer action movie. So, like, bad in the regular way. People are, of course, always and By Sarah • Dec 11, 2012 01:20 pm
Style Eddie Redmayne’s great suit It’s a gorgeous suit. It’s a beautiful colour. And he wears it so well. I interviewed Eddie Redmayne at the Les Miserables junket last weekend in New York. He is very, very nice. Doesn’t take himself too seriously, is engaging and friendly, seems kind and humble. It’ By Lainey • Dec 11, 2012 12:04 pm
Xenu Back to back Jacks and Xenu’s rap Here’s Tom Cruise at the London premiere of Jack Reacher last night wearing a lot of blush and bronzer. Contouring makes all the difference, you know? While Tom’s promoting his current release, a trailer for his next release, Oblivion, was released online yesterday. He plays another Jack. So By Lainey • Dec 11, 2012 11:14 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Will and Jaden Smith by M. Night Shyamalan looks terrible Somehow, after a run of increasingly bad efforts capped off by the infuriating The Happening and the appallingly awful The Last Airbender, M. Night Shyamalan is still allowed to make movies. How he’s not been thrown in Director Jail remains a mystery, and not only does he remain at By Sarah • Dec 11, 2012 10:56 am
Media Manipulation Promoting a movie without Katie Last year around this time, Tom Cruise was promoting Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol with Katie Holmes at his side and on his side. As you know, M:I4 did very, very good business, and it seemed like, finally, Tom was over the couch-jumping. And in the dead of the By Lainey • Dec 10, 2012 12:38 pm
