LONDON HAS FALLEN Trailer: "I Want You To Kill Me." Whatever You Say, Mr. President!
The unluckiest American president in history returns in a new trailer for London Has Fallen, which lays waste to a great city and gives a bunch of good actors an opportunity to earn some pocket change. Gerard Butler also returns...
Opening: AUTOMATA, Intense And Gripping Science Fiction
Spanish filmmaker Gabe Ibáñez's long-awaited second feature Autómata is an intense and gripping dystopian story, bordering on European surrealism within a classical narrative. Certainly, many current films present a weary and negative view of humanity's future, be it death by...

Review: The Perks of THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER
Emma Watson, appearing and sounding distinctly Pittsburgh-ian "damaged goods," yet as radiant and irresistible as ever, stands arms outstretched, head back, hair billowing in the 50 mile-per-hour night wind. She is moving, even as she is clearly moved, in that...
Watch: Stephen Chbosky Talks THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER
Author Stephen Chbosky accomplished quite a feat when he wrote his debut novel, the wildly popular young adult coming-of-age tale The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I imagine once the book gained its popularity and the idea of a film...
