After a summer headlined by declining box office numbers and disappointing blockbusters, Latin Post.com's David Salazar and Francisco Salazar take a look at the best movies of the summer.
Benedict Cumberbatch plays the code breaker and computer inventor Alan Turing; Robin Williams appears in one of his last four films; and Antonio Banderas works with his ex-wife Melanie Griffith in "Automata"
Sin City 2 A Dame To Kill For flops, surprisingly, at box office over weekend The much-anticipated sequel to "Sin City" failed to top box office sales after its release, claiming the No.
At the end of "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For," Jessica Alba's Nancy repeats a seemingly popular refrain: "Sin City, it soils you." In the context of the story, Nancy is getting at the fact that living in that city is bound to corrupt anyone.
While "A Most Wanted Man" certainly dabbles in politics and hints at political ramifications by its end, it achieves a far greater purpose. It emphasizes the eternal struggle--the Sisyphean struggle, if you will. And its climax carries the weight of that boulder rolling back down the hill. Sadly, we will never be able to see Philip Seymour Hoffman roll another boulder up the hill. But this last opportunity is certainly an unforgettable one.
These collection of films vary from science-fiction, dark, to downright weird. Brace yourselves, moviegoer: three films previewed their trailers out of last month's Comic-Con that border on science-fiction, scary and creepy, and they involve Matthew McConaughey, Daniel Radcliffe and Justin Long.
Mendoza manages to create a distinct mood piece in "Tierra en la Lengua," but the film's plodding pacing and often repetitive structure could prove tedious for some.
Gunn's script may veer along the familiar path but the moments that lead up to the dramatic milestones certainly keep the viewer not only interested, but in suspense. "Guardians of the Galaxy" might be the best Marvel film created since the first "Iron Man" and is undoubtedly the super hero movie to watch in 2014.
How did "Guardians of the Galaxy" stars Zoe Saldana and Dave Batista look so amazing onscreen? The film's makeup FX artist David White recently spoke with Latin Post about the process of working on "Guardians of the Galaxy" as well as his experience working with Saldana and WWE's Dave Bautista.
"Boyhood," starring Ethan Hawke and Eller Coltrane, seizes the viewer's attention and deepest emotions in a manner that makes it one of the finest films of the century and one that will endure for decades to come.
The two-hour movie masterfully blends humor and heart. "Guardians of the Galaxy" was a risky film choice for Marvel. What with the story set in space, the anthropomorphic raccoon, the giant tree creature, and the combination of a leading man and director who had never been involved in a big budget production, it could have easily been a disappointment.
The upcoming Focus Features film "Box Trolls" was given a ceremonious unveiling at Comic-Con this past weekend. The animated film marks the latest effort by Laika, the company behind such critical hits as "Coraline" and "ParaNorman."
