“I think in a reasonable period of time, all movies are going to be made in 3-D,” said Dreamworks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg at an event earlier today.
“When the audience experiences this and sees how exceptional it is, and the filmmakers understand how much greater an experience they can offer their audience and […]

When I heard about this movie, I was half-way expecting a documentary where someone chases after the illusive jeweler Harry Winston, a la Michael Moore’s Roger and Me, where he chases after the illusive CEO of GM, Roger Smith.
No, it’s not that, but it sounds just as good. It’s an adaptation of […]

The last time I saw Mariah Carey in a movie was just recently, in You Don’t Mess With the Zohan. I hated the movie, and she did nothing to elevate it in my mind.
Anyway, now Vivendi Entertainment has acquired the domestic rights to her film Tennessee, which premiered at this spring’s Tribeca Film […]

I recently saw Rumer Willis in The House Bunny, and she was one of the few things I liked about that movie. It’s always interesting to see how kids of big-time movie stars grow up, and Willis is clearly benefiting from the acting gene. And how cool would it be to have Bruce Willis […]

Harry Potter fans are lamenting the move of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince from Nov. 21, 2008 to July 17, 2009. But it’s a good thing for Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, because it leaves the family flick with a lot less competition when it opens on Nov. 7.

I haven’t seen Val Kilmer in any of his recent movies, but he won me over with his role as the damaged, fiercely loyal Doc Holliday in 1993’s Tombstone. It’s one of those movies I can see over and over, and still come away with a deep admiration for his acting abilities.

You usually don’t think of the words “hockey” and “fashion” sharing space in the same sentence, but New Line Cinema is hoping to change that.
The studio is currently working on a romantic comedy about pro hockey player Sean Avery’s experiences in the fashion world, including his stint as a summer intern at a […]

DreamWorks’ Disturbia is a rip-off of Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window, so says a lawsuit filed Monday in Manhattan federal court.
Please. I’ve seen both films several times, and at no time did the idea ever pop into my head. These people are pushing the envelope on this one.
