Ohhh, Look…Full History of 'The Grand Budapest Hotel'
Well it ain’t the Happiness Hotel but Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel looks to be the type of quirky environment to house each and every offbeat character his wacky mind can create. In keeping with his unique vision Fox Searchlight created this awesome and in-depth viral website for the film under the guise of a museum called the “Zubrowka Akademie Historic Library“. In it lies a veritable history lesson of events surrounding and concerning the giant pink mountain oasis. Click over to AkademieZubrowka.com to learn more about the history of the area and stories behind these vintage (but fake) trinkets and souvenirs from the hotel as well as its most famous (but still fake) guests……

Off the Shelf…’The Fifth Estate’
Bill Condon’s first post-Twilight film bites off more than it can chew, but it’s difficult to say whether that’s because of the subject matter – being the origins and rise of both Wikileaks and its controversial founder, Julian Assange – or because of the production’s unavoidable biopic bent; even at the tender age of only seven (which amounts to light years on the web), Wikileaks can already claim a rich, storied, complex history, so much so that two hours feels scarcely enough to scratch the surface of its conception or paint more than a sketch of Assange. So where, then, does The Fifth Estate go wrong? Like so many biopics,…

Sweet(er) Trailer…’Maleficent’
Well now, things are starting to look just a little bit better for Maleficent. That’s a good thing because for a while now we film fans have been getting gritty big-budget versions of popular fairy tales…with mixed results. On paper it seemed like a winning formula too. “Go dark.” they said. “Go gritty, it worked for Batman!” To which we clamored “Ohh, brooding!”. Well Snow White and the Huntsman was one of the more recent highly anticipated (and dark) features but is was also spectacularly boring and a huge let down. So when it was announced that the classic tale of Sleeping Beauty would be the next property to get a…

Off the Shelf…’Drug War’
Should Johnnie To’s name hold no special meaning for you, consider correcting that immediately by introducing yourself to the veteran Chinese filmmaker’s work through Drug War. Apart from being handily available through Netflix’s Instant service, the film happens to be great, so strong in fact that it arguably holds a position of high honor in his decades-long career; it’s a combined symbol of his talent and vitality, and one of the most ruthless films of 2013 that you probably missed. (In the interest of full disclosure, I only caught up on Drug War myself following New Year’s, but man do I wish I’d seen it before December’s voting deadline.) Drug…

G-S-T Review…Gimme Shelter
Think of Ron Krauss’ Gimme Shelter as the next phase in Vanessa Hudgen’s plan to recalibrate her career; it’s the continued tale of how she’s graduated from high school musicals and shed her Disney skin in an attempt to become a bona fide Actress. Truthfully, Hudgens doesn’t really need to tinker with her image much further following her stint in last year’s lurid Spring Breakers, Harmony Korine’s transgressive cultural commentary on disaffected youth, but she nonetheless appears to have arrived at a point in her life where she’s no longer content appearing in disposable teenage romances and terrible Twilight clones. It’s time for her to get real. Therein lies the…

G-S-T Trailer Round Up: Sundance, Spartans, Sam Rockwell and Aussie Horror
Whether you are living the sweet life at the Sundance Film Festival or like the rest of us have day jobs and are living vicariously through critic’s tweets, January is a busy movie month. Not really for quality cinema per se but advetising of forthcoming titles as it, by way of the festival circuit and Super Bowl commercials, allows us a chance to look ahead to films just over the horizon. Things you hadn’t expected or heard of may now start popping up all over your radar. Lots of trailers hit the web this week (some immediately following purchase and plans for distribution while at Sundance) and so this catch-all…

Ho-Hum Trailer…Angelina Jolie In ‘Maleficent’
In the upcoming film Maleficent The Walt Disney company is turning back the pages in their catalog to cast some light on one of their most popular, and apparently unexplored characters. Seemingly cast to perfection with Angelina Jolie this new film tells yet another untold tale of how an evil character came to be so, well, evil. Now it looks all kinds of pretty, chock full of that Disney-stylized whimsical magic, and it has an alluring factor that may or may not be completely attributed to a nostalgic factor (compounded by the shot-for-shot comparison scenes from the classic animated film) but we’ve been fooled before. Have a peek at the glitzy and…
