First The Adjustment Bureau Trailer

Matt Damon put in a great performance earlier in the year in war movie Green Zone, a movie you really all have to catch if you still haven’t seen it, and is back on the big screen later this year in The Adjustment Bureau.

Directed by George Nolfi the movie brings together a great cast of Damon, Emily Blunt, John Slattery and Terrence Stamp and is based on a Philip K.Dick novel.

Do we control our destiny, or do unseen forces manipulate us? Matt Damon stars in the thriller The Adjustment Bureau as a man who glimpses the future Fate has planned for him and realizes he wants something else.

To get it, he must pursue the only woman he’s ever loved across, under and through the streets of modern-day New York.

On the brink of winning a seat in the U.S. Senate, ambitious politician David Norris (Damon) meets beautiful contemporary ballet dancer Elise Sellas (Emily Blunt)–a woman like none he’s ever known. But just as he realizes he’s falling for her, mysterious men conspire to keep the two apart.

David learns he is up against the agents of Fate itself, the men of The Adjustment Bureau, who will do everything in their considerable power to prevent David and Elise from being together.

In the face of overwhelming odds, he must either let her go and accept a predetermined path…or risk everything to defy Fate and be with her

The Adjustment bureau is released 30th July. Take a look at the first trailer from the movie:

Filmclub Meets StreetDance 3D Stars

Filmclub member Chris Sinclair from Chestnut Grove School school joined seasoned reporters at the glitzy UK film premiere of the exciting new dance film StreetDance 3D.

The budding reporter interviewed cast members including George Sampson, dance troupes Flawless and Diversity, and up coming talent Nicola Burley (Carly), Richard Winsor (Tomas) and Sianad Gregory (Chloe).

In addition, the young filmclubber spoke to the films directors Dania Pasquini and Max Giwa, and producer James Richardson, about what it was like to make the UK’s first 3D film and what it was like working with the dancers.

Filmclub is a network of exciting after-school clubs which offers children free weekly access to thousands of classic and popular films – opening the door onto a dazzling world of cultures, life stories, aspirations, times and places.

StreetDance 3D follows the exploits of a London dance crew training for the UK Street Dance Championships, who are forced to work with ballet dancers from the Royal Dance School in return for rehearsal space.

With no common ground and with passions riding high, they realise they need to find a way to join forces to win. StreetDance 3D is released in UK cinemas on Friday 21 May.

Please Give Trailer

Kate (Catherine Keener) has a lot on her mind. There’s the ethics problem of buying furniture on the cheap at estate sales and marking it up at her trendy Manhattan store (and how much markup can she get away with?).

There’s the materialism problem of not wanting her teenage daughter (Sarah Steele) to want the expensive things that Kate wants. There’s the marriage problem of sharing a partnership in parenting, business, and life with her husband Alex (Oliver Platt) but sensing doubt nibbling at the foundations.

And there’s Kate’s free-floating 21st century malaise – the problem of how to live well and be a good person when poverty, homelessness, and sadness are always right outside the door.

Plus, there’s the neighbours: cranky, elderly Andra (Ann Morgan Guilbert) and the two granddaughters who look after her (Rebecca Hall and Amanda Peet).

As Kate, Alex, and Abby interact with the people next door, with each other, and with their New York surroundings, a complex mix of animosity, friendship, deception, guilt, and love plays out with both sharp humour and pathos.

Please Give is writer/director Nicole Holofcener’s perceptive, and devastatingly funny, take on modern life’s contradictions, good intentions and shaky moral bearings.

Shrek Forever After Images

I certainly didn’t think that after seeing Shrek in 2001 that we would get a highly successful franchise, yet this summer sees the fifth movie hit the big screen. I’m not anti Shrek just don’t think any of the movies have been as good as the orignal.

Yes the green ogre is back as Mike Myers is once again voicing this loveable character, Cameron Diaz, Eddie Murphy and Antonio Banderas are also back.

After challenging an evil dragon, rescuing a beautiful princess and saving your in-laws’ kingdom, whats an ogre to do? Well, if you’re Shrek, you suddenly wind up a domesticated family man.

Instead of scaring villagers away like he used to, a reluctant Shrek now agrees to autograph pitch forks. Whats happened to this ogre’s roar?

Longing for the days when he felt like a “real ogre,” Shrek is duped into signing a pact with the smooth-talking dealmaker, Rumpelstiltskin. Shrek suddenly finds himself in a twisted, alternate version of Far Far Away, where ogres are hunted, Rumpelstiltskin is king and Shrek and Fiona have never met.

Now, it’s up to Shrek to undo all he’s done in the hopes of saving his friends, restoring his world and reclaiming his one True Love.

Shrek Forever After is released 2nd July. Take a look at some images from the movie:

MacGruber Trailer

Only one American hero has earned the rank of Green Beret, Navy SEAL and Army Ranger.

Just one operative has been awarded 16 purple hearts, 3 Congressional Medals of Honor and 7 presidential medals of bravery. And only one guy is man enough to still sport a mullet.

In 2010, Will Forte brings “Saturday Night Live’s” clueless soldier of fortune to the big screen in the action comedy “MacGruber.”

In the 10 years since his fiancée was killed, special op MacGruber has sworn off a life of fighting crime with his bare hands. But when he learns that his country needs him to find a nuclear warhead that’s been stolen by his sworn enemy, Dieter Von Cunth (Val Kilmer), MacGruber figures he’s the only one tough enough for the job.

Assembling an elite team of experts–Lt. Dixon Piper (Ryan Phillippe) and Vicki St. Elmo (Kristen Wiig)–MacGruber will navigate an army of assassins to hunt down Cunth and bring him to justice.

His methods may be unorthodox. His crime scenes may get messy. But if you want the world saved right, you call in MacGruber.

Ruth’s Thursday Infidelity

Tragic recordings of Michael Jackson apparently in fear of his life have been unveiled today. Could it be that the King Of Pop faked his own death to escape the limelight?

Demi Moore just rubbed our faces a little bit deeper in the fact that she looks great, has a toyboy husband AND has lots of sex whilst she’s at it during a new interview.

Jack Tweed might have been making headlines yesterday, but it’s his ex’s mum, Jackiey Budden who’s hitting the top today after being caught smoking cannabis! Crikey, what is it with Jade Goody’s grieving relatives.

Now this is something we never expected to hear; Kerry Katona feels sorry for Katie Price! Wow, Katie’s life must be REALLY crap at the moment!
