Premiere - A popular video game turned movie that's much more exciting, entertaining, and playful than the trailers would have you believe. Gyllenhaal goes full-on action hero in this big-budget desert romp, and is equally matched by the gorgeous Gemma Arterton as a not-so-helpless princess. Established actors Ben Kinglsey and Alfred Molina also get to ham it up and easily keep pace with actors half their age. The main problem is one that also plagued Jerry Bruckheimer's Pirates of the Caribbean films: They're too long and overwritten. (To be fair, this doesn't have nearly as many dead spots as the Pirates trilogy.) Story is the most important part of any film, but two hours is pushing it.
Nekki has announced that the forthcoming gun fu game, SPINE, will receive a movie adaptation to expand the franchise.
Despite the lack of updates from Marvel Studios and Disney, Shang-Chi star Simu Liu says the sequel to the successful 2021 movie is still happening.
Based on the wildly popular 1988 comic book one-shot by Alan Moore and Brian Bolland, the anticipation soared for Batman: The Killing Joke movie. But why didn't it deliver in the end?
