38: ‘Noah’ Starring Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Anthony Hopkins

Posted: April 1, 2014 at 3:07 pm   /   Film, Local, Reel Spoilers

It’s Reel Spoilers #38 in which we learn that Noah is Aramaic for “bat-shit crazy”. Darren Aronofsky gives us a head-scratcher of, well…biblical proportions. And Tom rains down on upon us a plague of Bible and flood “jokes”. (See, there were two in that sentence alone.) All that plus Dan is this week’s contestant on […]

WOLVERINE 2 May Have Found Its Director With James Mangold

Ever since the first time I saw the Black Swan trailer, I have been really excited to see this movie, and tonight I did not leave disappointed.  I left absolutely blown away by Natalie Portman’s performance.  This is a film that grips you from the first scene and never lets go.  Nina is a ballerina […]

Another Take By Zac: Film Review: Black Swan

Posted: December 3, 2010 at 12:01 am   /   Another Take From Zac, Local

Black Swan is another fantastic entry into Darren Aronofsky’s filmography that is driven by a wonderful lead performance by Natalie Portman that could very well possibly be my favorite film of the year when it is all said and done. The film follows Nina Sayers who has been a background ballet performer in an elite […]

Posted: October 18, 2010 at 2:52 pm   /   Local, Movie News

News that Darren Aronofsky is completing his deal with 20th Century Fox to direct the sequel to X-Men Origins: Wolverine is likely to make some people applaud, and the rest cringe. I’m left wondering which category I fall into. On one hand Aronofsky brings great talent to a series that started off with a whimper […]
