Depp and DiCaprio In a Movie!
Some may argue that What’s Eating Gilbert Grape is no sleeper. The only collaboration between Depp and Dicaprio (that I know of) saw a limited release in December, 1993…
Review: Charlie St. Cloud
First off, do not make the mistake of dismissing Charlie St. Cloud because of Zac Efron. If this movie proves anything, its that Zac Efron is a talented actor. The movie has it’s flaws, but Efron’s passionate performance is one of it’s strengths…
Review: Dinner for Schmucks
Dinner for Schmucks is essentially a morality play with one simple moral: be tolerant of idiots. Ironically, the film itself is an exercise in that kind of tolerance…
Top 20 Movie Soundtracks of 2009

I’ve collected this week’s best movie news bits and videos from around the web. The best part is a Dora the Explorer/Inception mash-up that’s been spreading around the interweb. If you haven’t seen it yet, don’t miss it. Hope you enjoy.
The American, yet another movie about an American assassin in Europe, opens September 21st. A lean George Clooney stars in his first role as an action hero since Batman & Robin… Ouch. I just felt the air go out of the room…
If you still enjoy getting happy meals at McDonald’s (get them while you still can!), then you will probably enjoy The Sorcerer’s Apprentice…
Ben Affleck directs and stars in The Town. Powerful trailer. David Fincher directs The Social Network, the story of how Facebook came about. Music by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails.
