Watch these movies during Friday the 13th! Friday just happens to be Friday the 13th and the night of a full moon. Scary right? There's no better thing to do on Friday evening than watch a movie and stay inside to avoid any bad luck! Here are some great movies to check out on Friday the 13th.
X-Men Days of Future Past, The Amazing Spiderman, and Maleficent, all mark the unofficial start of the summer films. Let us talk about some other films starting this summer.
Back in 2008, director Jon Favreau was a hero. The auteur had just given the world the first "Iron Man" movie. He already had a proven track record with a number of other major hits, but "Iron Man" seemed like a new beginning for the filmmaker. However, his place in Hollywood was not a particularly stable one. Just a few years later his "Iron Man" sequel was blasted critically; a year later his "Cowboys & Aliens" flopped critically and at the box office. The fall seemed swift for the filmmaker. But Favreau has not given up. He has returned to his roots of indie film-making with "Chef," arguably his most autobiographical film to date.
In her op-ed piece, Hornaday referenced Rogan’s recent hit film, “Neighbors” and Apatow’s overall film work as encouragement for sexist thinking and behavior. Hornaday even went as far as alluding to the notion that Rogan and Apatow’s work could have led to Elliot Rodger’s deadly shooting spree.
"X-Men: Days of Future Past" gives Singer the opportunity to restart his relationship with the franchise and erase all of his errors of the past. Those who despised the more recent "X-Men" films will be relieved by this latest entry that is not only a terrific thrill ride, but also one that effectively negates those woeful films. Whether this quality is retained in future installments remains to be seen. But everyone can now breathe easy knowing that the franchise is back in Singers' hands.
The promise in the opening act of "Cold in July" creates the notion that the viewer will be in for a relentless thrill ride. But unfortunately, the opening act turns out to be nothing more than a red herring for the rest of the film, which unfortunately amounts to nothing more than violent chaos with seemingly no direction or identity. It is as vapid and empty as the mysterious corpse that Richard kills at the beginning of the film and never identifies.
The time has arrived. X-men Days of Future Past will officially hit theaters at midnight this Thursday, welcoming fans back into Marvel's wonderfully convoluted world of mutant superheroes and villains.
With production for the “Star Wars Episode VII” movie already underway, it seems that the movie’s director J.J. Abrams is just as excited and joyful about the “Star Wars” cast and crew as we are.
The time of the year when cinema-lover can rejoice is finally here. We’re talking about the Cannes Film Festival.The Cannes Film Festival is Cannes, France’s annual film festival that previews new films of all genres as well as documentaries from around the world.
After shocking fanboys Monday with a teaser picture of the new Batmobile under a tarp, filmmaker Zack Snyder kept to his word Tuesday and unveiled the first official look at Batman's ride in the upcoming "Man of Steel" sequel.
Some will certainly complain about the implausibility of the climactic twist, but this film is so highly stylized that it is not likely that anyone could mistake it for realism. Instead the film digs a bit deeper from a psychological standpoint. Speaking in Freudian terms, "The Double" externalizes the subconscious battle between id and superego in attempts at realizing a fully mature ego.
