Hot. Tub. Time. Machine. These four little words bring together an awesome '80s atmosphere with the humor of the 2000s to transport movie-goers back to a time they barely remember.
Gaylord Focker, the leader of the Frat Pack and the guy from “Zoolander” who is really, really ridiculously good looking. These are all names that one uses to allude to comedic poster boy Ben Stiller.
You are cordially invited to a Mad Hatter’s ball. Don’t be late for this very important date.
Large brown eyes never packed so much emotion. Veined with burst blood vessels stained from tears and anger, just two women of the many affected by the 1994 genocide in Rwanda are portrayed in the documentary, "As We Forgive." AIM For Africa and Reitz Union Board Entertainment presented the film, directed by Laura Waters Hinson, Tuesday evening as the first part of An African Film Series in order to raise awareness to issues in foreign nations.
Admit it. Although your birth date falls in the late eighties or (gasp!) nineties, you still love the puffy-bright-tracksuit-side-ponytail-wearing-“Breakfast Club”-loving generation.
With the Sundance Film Festival closing out Sunday, many of the screened films have a few months before hitting theaters.
Remember when MTV aired shows that didn’t render its acronym a complete misnomer? If you, like me, were still in diapers when the “Real World’s” first season rocked the world of television, my guess is that you can’t. But today, what the network lacks in substance it compensates for with its remarkable ability to repackage the utterly talentless among us as entertainment. The ratings ploy of the season is the show that everyone loves to make fun of: Of course I’m referring to our orange-and-proud friends on “The Jersey Shore.”
Heath Ledger’s first on-screen appearance in “The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus” shocks the audience as his shadow reflects over London’s Thames River. Clad in white, he dangles from a noose as the camera pans toward his seemingly lifeless body.
Although the 67th Golden Globes awards aired last Sunday, people are still ranting and raving about them. The Globes, most known for setting the bar for the Oscars, are unique because they not only honor both movies and television, but also differentiate between comedy/musical and drama genres. They are supposed to be known as the most fun and spontaneous awards show for the simple fact that attendees sit at circular tables and wine and dine throughout the ceremony. It's not unheard of for some of the later winners to trip up the stage and slur through their acceptance speeches. This year was no exception. Let's go back, yearbook style, and check out some superlatives of the night.
Ben Foster stars as Staff Sgt. Will Montgomery whose responsibility is to notify dead soldiers’ next of kin of their loss.
When you’re wearing metallic gold Christian Louboutin pumps, who needs a plot line?
What do Michael Cera, sex-crazed teenagers and gratuitous violence have in common? They are all mashed up in the new film “Youth in Revolt,” a teen sex comedy opening nationwide in theaters tomorrow. You may have, by now, been exposed to the subtly salacious trailer or seen the posters with Cera’s boyish face around campus.
Last weekend, two of the lead cast members in ABC Family’s “Greek” rushed the UF campus to celebrate homecoming and promote their partnership with the “Pledge Yourself to Do Something” campaign.
The cast of the new Comedy Central show "Secret Girlfriend" want to be your best friends, literally. The show is shot in an unheard of first-person view, and you are the main character.
"Mystery Team" is the story of three high school virgins stuck as their 7-year-old Encyclopedia Brown-type personalities. Kind of like my life, but with actual cases to solve and not just wishful thinking. The three friends ride matching bikes and harass 6-year-olds. In fact, they get in trouble for forcefully removing a kid from the playground and teaching him a lesson about putting his fingers in things.
At the intersection of expectation and reality you can sometimes end up at disappointment street. You can look forward to something so much that it will never live up to the idea you had in your brain. A shame, really.
The first 10 minutes of Bruno, featuring an outrageous and distasteful anal sex scene, is a straight kick to the balls. And no, the rest of the movie isn't about to pull any punches either.
Music and film don't always synch up. While some try to hard to push the entertainment factor with forced tour bus orgies and unlimited profanity, others come up dry. But among the failed attempts, some music-related films mesh both genres of entertainment in perfect harmony.
There are some people who strive for greatness. Ken Edwards, of England, ate 36 cockroaches in one minute. Jackie Bibby, "The Texas Snake Man," sat in a bathtub with 87 rattlesnakes. Director Jon Russell Cring shot 12 movies in 20 months with equipment his wife won in a student filmmaking contest.
