Director Rodrigo Garcia talks about the experience of directing "Last Days in the Desert" and his father Gabriel Garcia Marquez's most inspirational work.
But when all is said and done, "X-Men: Apocalypse" with its balance of lighter and darker tones is a thoroughly entertaining movie. It might not be as ground-breaking as the franchise's first entries or as engrossing as its immediate predessor "X-Men: Days of Future Past" but it certainly tops most of the other fanfare in the superhero genre hitting theaters today. The visual effects, while gratuitous at times, are still solid through and through and the cast delivers some of the finest performances you can expect in this kind of film.
The summer season is underway with a plethora of major tentpole features heading for theaters. Summer is generally the season packed with major moneymakers and this year looks no different. "Captain America: Civil War" has already been released and should see some incredible numbers over the long haul. By all accounts, the film should near or top the $400 million.
"Captain American: Civil War" hits theaters at midnight tonight, bringing fans back to the superhero cinematic universe for yet another year. Marvel films have been in high demand for years now since "Iron Man" was a huge success in 2008.
And by most accounts, the films have been huge critical success as well. But which is the best of Marvel's films? Here is a look at the top films in the canon of the cinematic universe.
Star Wars fans are on cloud nine. Days after the release of "The Force Awakens" on home video, aficionados of the galaxy far, far away got another present from Disney: a new trailer for "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story."
"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" ultimately takes its mythologizing to a rather obvious extreme, leaving the audience with everything one might expect from "The Passion of Superman." And while the ending might shoot for pathos, the audience's realization of what is to come in subsequent franchise films not only robs the sequence of its resonance, but makes it irritating. That might be the best way to describe the film as a whole.
Beloved franchise "Indiana Jones" is returning after nine years, already raising concerns among fans regarding the viability of the latest installment. Here are the biggest questions everyone is asking about "Indiana Jones 5."
Harrison Ford is back for another "Indiana Jones." Another installment is a surprising choice, given the results of the previous film, and it will require quite a bit of work to fit the new movie into the overall narrative.
Gender inequality in the film industry has been a rampant topic for the past few years. Patricia Arquette's Oscar acceptance speech became a rallying cry, binging the issue back to the forefront of industry conversation. Advocates emphasize that women, despite originally building the film industry back in its heyday, do not get equal pay or representation.
"Deadpool" had a huge showing at the box office, becoming the latest film to prove that the early months of the year can be as important as the summer and winter for tentpoles.
