Iron Man Three Review

It's not a superhero movie. It's a Shane Black movie with superheroes in it. And that makes it awesome.

That's the sound I made watching the red band TV spot for Magic Mike (ooo, and on a Sunday too). It's directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Matthew McConaughey, Alex Pettyfer and a whole lot of Channing Tatum. Or should I say, former male stripper Channing Tatum.


Here's the video. You can thank me later.

 

 

Magic Mike is out in UK cinemas on Friday 11th July. Olympics, who?

 

 

When did Matthew McConaughey get good (again)? Was is Tropic Thunder? The Lincoln Lawyer? Or the point at which he started wearing really cool hats and killing people?

 

 

Matthew McConaughey, Killer Joe

My money's on the hat. Head this way for the Killer Joe UK trailer. William Friedkin's still got it, yo.

 

 
Director: William Friedkin
Cast: Matthew McConaughey, Emile Hirsch, Juno Temple
Certificate: TBC
Uk release date: Friday 29th June

When small-time drug dealer Chris (Emile Hirsch) has his entire stash stolen by his very own mother, he plans to dispatch of her and cash in on her $50,000 life insurance to repay his debts. On recommendation he approaches Detective Joe Cooper (Matthew McConaughey), an enigmatic, dirty cop, who moonlights as a contract killer. Unable to get his usual upfront retainer, Joe sets his sight on Chris’ innocent sister Dottie (Juno Temple) as collateral for the job. But the simple agreement turns complicated when Dottie forms an unusual bond with Killer Joe and everything begins to unravel… Based on the play by Pulitzer and Tony Award winner Tracy Letts, "Killer Joe" is a controversial and shockingly cool black comedy thriller from cult director William Friedkin (The Exorcist, The French Connection), starring Matthew McConaughey, Emile Hirsch, Juno Temple, Gina Gershon and Thomas Haden Church.

"Mawwage is what bwings us together today. Wove, twue wove..."


Yes, there's a Royal Wedding on, but this is really just an excuse for me to watch Peter Cook in The Princess Bride again.


The movies can teach us a lot about mawwage. Here are the key points summed up in a pretty infographic. Because I'd rather spend two hours going through and screencapping Love Actually than watch Will and Kate tie the knot.

Rango has reached the top of the UK Box Office after a lukewarm week that saw no-one make very much money. But don't worry: Submarine didn't sink, even if it did surface in 12th place. More on that later.


Dreamworks' animated Western took the number one spot from Battle: Los Angeles, dropping 32% down to £1.05m. That's not a lot for a chart-topper, but it's got a healthy £5m running total now, which it's clocked up outside of half term and without 3D uplifts.


It's also the only film to take more than £1 million this week, as it doesn't look like many people went to the pictures over the weekend: Rango's £500k drop is more than most of the new releases made in their first week.


Chalet Girl sloped in at number four (the highest of the debuts) with an alright £677k. Taking into account the usually reliable demographic of teenage girls, though, it's a bit of a downhill run for the rather excellent rom-com (that's right: it's excellent). Still, its Wednesday-Thursday previews helped it jump over The Lincoln Lawyer, which came in fifth with £571k.


The week's other popular release was Anuvahood, which had a solid opening, taking £536k from around 149 cinemas. That's an average of £3,600 per screen, the best of the UK Top Ten, which not only beats Felicity Jones and Matthew McConaughey but also makes it look bare easy, blud, you get me? Regardless of negative reviews and the limited print run, the audience for the gangsta comedy clearly liked the film - even more than I liked using the word 'blud' in that last sentence.
