On the Road
Adapting Jack Kerouac’s On The Road for the big screen has been a long time coming, and it was only a matter of whom would possess the courage—and perhaps a dash of martyrdom—to do so. Finally, Walter Salles has taken a shot at the long-deemed-unfilmable novel, and as would have been the case regardless the director, the film is going to garner a wide array of reactions. To Kerouac fans: proceed with caution. The authenticity of the film’s Beat flavor is mild at best. To everyone else: don’t look too deep, and the sexy surface will entertain marvelously for a... read more

Breaking Dawn, Part 1 is a bad film—a self-aware one, for sure, but a bad one nonetheless. A legion of fanged-out fanatics will rally behind it for one tremendous weekend, and it will have some limited legs leading to boffo overall box office performance but little lasting impression. In fact, in 20 years, the young viewers who went gaga over this series will likely be wracked with embarrassment when revisiting the films on Ultraviolet or whatever digital format rules the marketplace. read more

Director: Floria Sigismondi Writers: Floria Sigismondi Cinematographer: Benoît Debie Starring: Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning, Michael Shannon, Stella Maeve, Tatum O’Neal Studio/Run Time: Apparition, 105 min. A motley crew, a cherry bomb Once upon a time, before The Go-Go’s lips were sealed, before the Bangles walked like an Egyptian, five schoolgirls and a Svengali record producer created an all-girl rock band called The Runaways—the title of this film about the band’s improbable rise and inevitable fall.

Found in: Movies, ReviewsWatch the Trailer for The Runaways
A short trailer has been released for the provocative biopic about the short-lived ‘70s girl group The Runaways. They dubbed themselves purveyors of “jailbait rock”—due to their ages—and featured future music icons Joan Jett, Lita Ford and Micki Steele (The Bangles). Below is the trailer for The Runaways written and directed by music videomaker Floria Sigismondi. Take special note of Twilight alum Kristen Stewart, rocking a sweet mullet, and an almost unrecognizable Dakota Fanning sporting a hairdo that would’ve made the late Farrah Fawcett proud. The Runaways hits theaters in limited release on March 19.... read more
