There’s a temptation in writing about Admission to make it all about Tina Fey. This is a mistake on several levels; she’s only contributing to the film in an acting capacity, for one, and for another she’s watchable even though she’s essentially playing the exact same role she’s predicated her entire career on. Admission itself is the product of Karen Croner’s script, adapting Jean Hanff Korelitz’s 2009 novel of the same name, and Paul Weitz’s direction, which can be described as “incongruous” at best. That’s where the real conversation lies, but if you find yourself winding around back to Fey, there’s a good reason for that. She’s one half of the likability equation that…

Sweet Trailer…'Star Trek Into Darkness'
Brace yourselves boys and girls, this morning (early morning) the latest little bit of marketing for Star Trek Into Darkenss has dropped and is perhaps the most epic looking thing we’ve seen yet. So what’s new? Well, this trailer for the big budget sequel to Abrams’ amazingly well-received Star Trek reboot gives us a glimpse of Peter Weller as a Starfleet Admiral as well as lots more sneering from Benedict Cumberbatch as the villainous… John Harrison. Okay, surely we all know by now that’s not what he’ll end up being called, but JJ, as always, is doing a great job keeping things close to his chest. Enough talk, just watch!! When the…

Sweet Trailer…'DreamWorks Animation's 'Turbo'
Today we get the first (well second if you count the teaser) trailer for DreamWorks Animation’s Turbo, a fun looking film about a racing snail. Sorry all you fans of The Neverending Story, this has nothing to do with that speedy snail but this is the story of Turbo, a snail who has always dreamed about being fast. Following a freak accident Turbo has been transformed from an everyday garden snail into a racing machine and he’s one step closer to achieving his biggest dream: winning the Indy 500. Honestly this looks to have that patented DreamWorks charm all over it. With a little luck the studio may have two hits…

Sweet Trailer…'Despicable Me 2'
Not sure what the rest of you thought, but while Despicable Me didn’t look like much at first we found it had a lot more heart than we’d originally suspected. So to the masses of fans (including GST) who made the Universal’s 2010 animated film a hit will be as overjoyed as Gru’s minions that a sequel is coming to theaters this Summer. This time around we’re getting plenty more of those minions pictured above (who really are as cute as can be), as well as Gru, his adopted trio of Edith, Margo and Agnes, and of course dastardly deeds, this time perpetrated by the yet unnamed Al Pacino character. Have…

Sweet Trailer…'The Colony'
End of the world films are a dime a dozen and thanks in part to the SyFy channel the whole sub-genre has been deemed a little trite and passe. But while many fail there are some that although they don’t redefine much of the formula still prove to be entertaining enough to be worth the time. Today we get the international trailer for Jeff Renfroe’s The Colony which on the surface has a little bit more going for it thanks to Laurence Fishburne, Bill Paxton and even Kevin Zegers. It’s the standard, “hey a distress signal, hey let’s check it out, hey something’s not right” fare but could be fun.…

G-S-T Review…The Call
There’s a serviceable thriller to be found in The Call; in fact, you don’t even have to look very hard to find it. Even better, that thriller happens to be wrapped up in a police procedural yarn that sees the events of a crime unfold from a perspective that we’re not used to. Have you ever called 9-1-1? Have you ever thought for a second about what the person on the other end of the line does day in and day out for a living? Brad Anderson apparently has, and in The Call he anchors his story within that exact point of view. The results aren’t next-level or anything, but his approach makes…
