28
Days Later Boyle
used actor Ewan McGregor in his first three films and they rose to fame
together. Then he came out with the big budget film "The Beach" with
Leonardo DiCaprio which essentially flopped (although I enjoyed it myself). Now
he's back to a low budget film with a bunch of nobodies filmed with a digital
camera. What this means is that people who are expecting a big budget
scare-fest with a lot of glamorized action and violence are in for a big
surprise.
Charlie's
Angels: Full Throttle Who
wants to see a brainless, good-natured action flick starring 4 gorgeous
actresses? A lot of people and I can understand why.
Down
With Love Down with Love is a not a
movie set in the 60s, it’s a 60s movie made in the 21st
century.
The
Emerging Family Friendly Hollywood
Three films last week warranted the
worst rating by the U.S. Catholic Bishops of O - Morally Offensive (“A Man
Apart”, “Boat Trip”, and “Dysfunktional Family”). They thought only
three out of eleven movies in theatres were alright for adolescents to see. With
most movies hitting theatres not suitable for children it is refreshing to know
that there are young film makers emerging who want to make good G and PG movies.
Two companies that are part of this wave are Crusader Entertainment and Walden
Media.
