Sam Rockwell and his dancing are often, in fact almost always the best thing about ANY film he's in.

Except with 1/10000 of the pretension, I imagine.
What makes you say it's Craig who established that tone? He seems to be trying to escape the series with every film. I enjoy them, and him in them, but he seems to be very critical of them and frequently hints he won't return- they just keep upping his salary to ridiculous levels.
Also, I'd say the Bourne films are…
I enjoy a lot of things about it. Daft Punk and AC/DC soundtrack, Don Cheadle and Sam Rockwell (even if he is rather out of place), and that team-up fight with Iron Man and War Machine are all really fun to watch. There are some clumsy aspects, like some of Mickey Rourke's performance and Black Widow being somewhat…
Well they're rather counter-culture and require their audience to think, for the most part, aside from the Burton film. That makes it hard for a movie to do boffo business.
I don't think it's fair to say that the backlash against Ghostbusters being related to misogyny is proved by the fact that non-remake/non-sequel films like Nerve and Neon Demon didn't do well.
I for one, thought Ghostbusters looked terrible based on the trailers, thought it seemed like a needless remake, and then went…
Yes, historically it has been very difficult for small-time artists to win cases against highly successful labels and artists. Beyonce is one of the best selling artists of all time, and this guy is unknown. Based on the evidence the artist made publicly available, it seems clear to me that his work was influential on…
The fact that he sent his film in to her label and was able to show multiple frames and scenes that closely reflected his work is what strengthens his plagiarism case.
But yes, his film also uses "grass" and "parking garages" and things that have been in films before.
Yup, he should thank Beyonce for plagiarizing him because he got his film seen by so many people for no money whatsoever, and his character assassinated by blind superfans who will probably harass him the rest of his career.
Justice has been done.
Reposted Armond White Reviews gimmick account?
I agree. I think it's an excellent entry into the series, possibly rivaling X2. I was tremendously disappointed in Apocalypse, though. I hope he finds a project he can be enthusiastic about, because it looked like he was just OVER the X-Men. I don't think he wanted to be a Feige/Nolan/Snyder-type mastermind of a whole…
I'd be willing to bet it's a combination of having to work with a bad script, an apathetic cast, and having been pilloried in the press and being left with the knowledge that this may be the only avenue left to him.
Ironically, your title is longer than the actual one.
Also, people were excited because back in the dark ages of the early aughts, one could count the number of good superhero films on one hand, and two of them were made by Bryan Singer
The world needs this so bad.
A series of commercials with full directorial authority. Featuring the works of Lars von Trier, Werner Herzog, and Yorgos Lanthimos.
I disagree. He seems like a caricature from an Epic Movie style "satire" of superhero films, rather than an actual villain from a real one. I'm completely baffled at how no one seems to have seen at any point during the film's production what a disaster it was going to be to lean the film so heavily on his…
Like all Coen movies, there are at least some very charming characterizations. JK Simmons is wonderful in that movie, and Tom Hanks is mostly very charming although pretty one-note. Wayans totally hamstrings the movie, though, and the writing and pacing is really slipshod compared to the Coen's usual standard. It is…
I'm pretty sure The Master is already canonized. It's on this list, and it topped the AV Club critic's list.
Personally I think it's a mixed bag, but it's certainly not underappreciated.
Hail Caesar is great. A minor film, but great.
Hudsucker Proxy also great and minor.
The Ladykillers is not only minor but best forgotten by everyone, as it is a disgrace and a travesty.
Do you mean "patois", or are outdoor sitting areas much more integral to criminal organizations than any of us realize?
While I agree that Lost Highway is far superior to Mulholland Drive, I wouldn't put either of them anywhere near Vertigo and Rear Window in terms of quality.
I think it's apt to note that Mulholland and Vertigo have many thematic similarities, however.
