Ultimately ONLY GOD FORGIVES is superficial theology and gaudy fetishism, treading a fine line between the nightmarish and the comical; but is so brazen and compelling.
My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/only-god-forgives.html Out in the UK on the 2nd August and out in the USA on the 19th July. THE NUMBERS STATION, a poorly constructed thriller starring John Cusack, is out to own on Monday.
My take on it: http://www.filmaluation.com/the-numbers-station.html Director of DRIVE, Nicolas Winding Refn, attended the screening of his newest team-up with Ryan Gosling, ONLY GOD FORGIVES, last night. Here's the trailer: This teaser trailer for Ridley Scott's THE COUNSELLOR has me very, very excited. Look at that cast. Out in the USA on the 25th October, and the UK 15th November. Actor John Travolta in conversation last night. He even did a little dance on stage to show he still has his SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER/PULP FICTION moves.
Hi Nic Cage impression (carried on from FACE/OFF) is still funny, his Sean Connery impression less impressive. THE EAST is showing at the Edinburgh Film Festival 2013, and getting a UK release on Friday.
My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/the-east.html DESPICABLE ME 2 is out in the UK on the 28th, and in the USA on the 3rd July.
The only thing stopping it getting one star are the Minions, inventive and winsome sidekicks thankfully getting their own film in 2014. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/despicable-me-2.html From the director of ARAHAN, CRYING FIST and THE CITY OF VIOLENCE comes espionage action-thriller, THE BERLIN FILE.
It played at the 5th Terracotta Far East Film Festival, and will play at the Edinburgh International Film Festival 2013. Here's my take on it: http://www.filmaluation.com/the-berlin-file.html That Ewan McGregor Citroen advert is so bad. Contrast the muscular simplicity of the Audi R8 commercial. Iron Man may drive it, but it looks like the Batmobile. |

See the drop down to the right of the Home tab. Enjoy. The vital ambitions of art and entertainment: - Perceptiveness - Illumination - The unexpected - Innovation Brains and soul are key; but adrenaline junkies do not fret, there is also much love for an experience that delivers a sucker-punch to the guts via stunningly delivered thrills. Noun, “filmaluation”: The evaluation of a film Verb, "to filmaluate”: To evaluate a film I am well aware how difficult it is to make a film, put on a stage play, create a television show, write a novel, let alone make something of note.
