Trailer Tuesday: Iron Man 2

Is this really anything eloquent or witty I can say about this Iron Man 2 trailer that isn’t summed up by simply saying: Wow? Still, this trailer gives us a deeper look at Whiplash, played by Mickey Rourke, as well as glimpses of Rhodey Rhodes/War Machine (Don Cheadle), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell) and Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson). And even though the cast is eclectic and talented and Scarlett Johansson makes me drool, the driving force

Movie Review: Sherlock Holmes (Dan’s Take)

Robert Downey Jr. has become a force of nature. Once just a great actor, the dude has seen his career resuscitated into the open arms of an adoring public who now sees him as their cinematic best friend to giddily bury under spade fulls of lavish praise. If there’s any doubt Downey Jr.’s charm and dynamism will single-handedly open Sherlock Holmes to fat gobs of cash while allowing director Guy Ritchie a leg up and out of his London Gangster

Trailer Tuesday: Sherlock Holmes

Aside from watching chestnuts roasting on an open fire and Jack Frost nipping at my nether-regions, I think I’ll be snacking on some popcorn and sipping a frosty Diet Coke at the theater and watching Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes. A second trailer US trailer was released today and, even though not really showing us anything that new, it merely confirms to me that which I already assume: This movie is pure win. How can it not be? Guy Ritchie’s style

Downey sets a Date with Galifianakis

This summer’s hit comedy “The Hangover” recently became the highest grossing R-rated comedy of all time. Considering the movie had a budget of $34 million and subsequently raked in over $247 million, you can bet director Todd Phillips (“Old School”) is making Warner Brothers do cartwheels and backflips into a giant pool of sweaty money. It’s no wonder Phillips new comedy, “Due Date,” starts shooting this fall. “Hangover” star Zach Galifianakis is already attached and Robert Downey Jr has just

Trailer Tuesday: Sherlock Holmes

This is the International Trailer for Guy Ritchie’s new movie, “Sherlock Holmes,” due in theaters on Christmas Day. As you probably know, it stars Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law and the lovely Rachel McAdams. As you watch the trailer you’ll probably recognize a few other Ritchie regulars, including Mark Strong (“RocknRolla,” “Body of Lies,” “Stardust”). I think the trailer is enough mix of substance and tease to make this a surefire hit come December 25th. I can also say, being

Trailer Tuesday: Sherlock Holmes Teaser!

The Robert Downey Jr. lovefest has been in full swing since last year’s “Iron Man” and “Tropic Thunder,” and deservedly so. Downey Jr. has a natural charisma and fantastic acting chops that his drugged out years of disillusionment never stopped. Based on what I’ve seen in this “Sherlock Holmes” trailer, I have to say to both Downey Jr. and Guy Ritchie, “Bravo, sir.” This looks absolutely fantastic.
