    Movie Blog Post: Alice Through the Looking Glass | Captain America: Civil War | X-men: Apocalypse

    May 29, 2016 /

    Even Alice (Mia Wasikowska) who fervently believes in 6 impossible things before breakfast, knows that time has the final say on death and can't get behind her friend the Hatter's (Johnny Depp) notion that his family, the hat making Hightopps, [of which he was estranged, being the black, rather colorful sheep of the family] could still be found or brought back...

    Prometheus

    If you make a film about aliens, the existence of God, origins of man, ancient myths, prophecies, hieroglyphics, space travel, throw in a lot of goo, birthing alien babies and an unnerving robot - then I'm most likely gonna love it...

    HAYWIRE (Steven Soderbergh)

    January 23, 2012 /

    by Le Anne Lindsay I read that Steven Soderbergh was looking to make a more beautiful, stylistic action film in the vein of the classic James Bond film From Russia With Love or the Michael Caine thriller Funeral in Berlin when he set about to make Haywire. His other inspiration was professional mixed martial arts fighter Gina Carano: Soderbergh was flipping between channels late one night and stumbled onto one of Carano’s fights. “I see Gina coming out. She’s got the cornrows; she’s got the warrior affect. I thought, ‘Wow, that’s interesting.’ She destroyed this woman in a cage, and I just hadn’t seen anything like this before,” he said.…

    October 23, 2011 /

    by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Michael Fassbender has a Dirk Diggler size schlong!  And an Adonis rear-end. Beyond that, I don’t remember anything about the film Shame.  Just kidding. Well, about the film’s resonance, not about Fassbender.  In actuality, the film stayed with me for quite awhile.  Seeing two people in so much pain with no clue how to get relief, yet basically from the outside, look as if they are managing the day in and out of life. Director Steve McQueen (Hunger), (why doesn’t he go by S. McQueen or use his middle name, Rodney or Stephen?) has created an intense character study of a sex addict without really…
