Friday One Sheet: Leaning Against The Frame In ONCE UPON A TIME IN... HOLLYWOOD
The strange marketing materials for Quentin Tarantino's '9th Film' (as the poster says) feature (across two one sheets) the trio of lead characters leaning against 'the frame' of the poster. It is also present in one of the initial pieces...
Destroy All Monsters: Because Leo Didn't Win An Oscar For TITANIC, Leo Won't Win An Oscar
I want to get a message out to Leonardo DiCaprio, mostly because I don't want him to kill himself. His self-annihilation track, in his relentless pursuit of an Academy Award, is starting to scare me. Apparently for The Revenant he...
Review: THE REVENANT, An Admirable, Handsome Failure
It begins, as you might expect, with a sweeping shot that's equal parts glorious and gratuitous. For The Revenant isn't just some run-of-the-mill flick, this is Oscar-winning director Alejandro G. Iñárritu's latest flick, a follow up for his much-lauded Birdman....
SPOTLIGHT Is Best Movie Of 2015, According To Dallas-Fort Worth Critics

THE REVENANT: DiCaprio Vs. Bears, Hypothermia, Gravity, Premature Burial And Tom Hardy In New Trailer
There is no shortage of snow-caked, visceral imagery on display in the second trailer for Alejandro González Iñárritu's survival Western, The Revenant. This trailer offers a lot more Tom Hardy, who plays the villain of the piece, and a fair bit...
THE REVENANT: First Trailer For Iñárritu's Next Looks Stunning
Alejandro González Iñárritu follows up his Oscar winning Birdman with what looks to be his most ambitious film to date, the epic survival tale, The Revenant. Based partially on the novel by Michael Punke, the film follows Leonardo DiCaprio as...
DiCaprio And De Niro Clash In Trailer For Scorsese's THE AUDITION

So, Scorsese, De Niro, DiCaprio And Pitt Make A Movie Together, But...
As the story goes, Martin Scorsese got together with Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Brad Pitt and made a movie written by The Wolf of Wall Street scribe Terrence Winter. No. Really. They did. Brad Pitt left his working...
Destroy All Monsters: Thinking Better Of The Wolves
I still don't know exactly where to come down on The Wolf of Wall Street. In the first part I don't think it's a particularly great movie, though of course being a Martin Scorsese picture, it's a hell of a...
Why THE WOLF OF WALL STREET Is A Horror Movie
Note: Major spoilers abound. Martin Scorsese is a master of horror, whether he realizes it or not. Of course, if one simply adds up the piles of dead bodies from his violent gangster films like Goodfellas, Casino, Gangs of New...
Review: THE WOLF OF WALL STREET Roars
Tapping into a primal force that is mercifully unbound by decorum or good taste, Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio tear up New York's financial district in their latest collaboration. The Wolf of Wall Street finds both director and actor baying...
Destroy All Monsters: Leo DiCaprio and the Myth of the Chick Flick
I have a running argument about whether or not movie box office is a zero-sum game. I tend to attack film earning potential from the "mother of two" perspective - which is that while yes, it's nice to believe that...
Review: THE GREAT GATSBY Is a Class Assignment You'll Want to Skip
Baz Luhrmann's half-frenetic, half-subdued version of The Great Gatsby is almost 100 percent faithful to the novel in terms of plot, and almost zero percent faithful in terms of theme, character, and impact. I don't doubt that Luhrmann and his...
Well-Timed GREAT GATSBY Extended TV Spot Joins Promo Avalanche
While most here at ScreenAnarchy appear to be hungrily anticipating Pacific Rim, I have the same fervour for Baz Luhrmann's take on The Great Gatsby, and am eating up every morsel of promo in the lead up to its May...
