Zhu Lin and Guy Pearce in 33 Postcards

Even though we’re already neck deep in the summer movie season, there’s always the time and often the desire to take a break from superheroes and blockbusters, and this weekend, Pauline Chan’s “33 Postcards” could be that source of relief. The film stars newcomer Zhu Lin as Mei Mei, a Chinese orphan who’s been sponsored by an Australian man (Guy Pearce) for years. When Mei Mei finally gets the opportunity to travel to Australia she’s determined to meet him, dreaming that he might make her part of his family, but is shocked to discover that he isn’t really the man he wrote about in his postcards. A script from the  [ Read More ]

Zachary-Quinto-Chris-Pine-Star-Trek-Into-Darkness

Get ready for another big one. “Star Trek Into Darkness” is the lone newcomer at the box office this weekend, begging the question, will “Iron Man 3” move over enough for it to make a killing or will it hold on strong enough to diminish “Star Trek’s” opening intake? Last year it took four weekends for something to move in and dethrone “The Avengers,” but “The Avengers” also faced more poorly reviewed and hyped material than “Iron Man.” Should “Iron Man” continue on “The Avengers” track, lessening its weekend one to two drop of 58.4% to 50%, it’ll take $35 million this weekend. Should “Star Trek Into Darkness,” come in  [ Read More ]

You think you know what to expect from “VHS 2” having seen the first film? Think again. Don’t believe me? It says it right there in the film’s new red band trailer – “Leaps and bounds beyond its predecessor” – courtesy of yours truly. Veterans Simon Barrett and Adam Wingard return and are joined by “VHS” newcomers Jason Eisener, Gareth Evans, Timo Tjahjanto, Eduardo Sanchez and Gregg Hale to deliver five gruesome and twisted yet highly enjoyable tales of found footage horror. “VHS 2” isn’t just a step above the first film or even a top genre release of 2013; it’s one of the best films of the year, period.  [ Read More ]

Title: Star Trek Into Darkness Directed By: J.J. Abrams Starring: Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, John Cho, Bruce Greenwood, Simon Pegg, Anton Yelchin, Benedict Cumberbatch, Alice Eve, Peter Weller “Star Trek Into Darkness” isn’t as effective as the first film overall, but there are so many exceptional set pieces within the whole that it packs more than enough momentum to pull through and deliver a riveting experience. The film begins mid-mission with the crew of the Enterprise trying to keep a volcano from exploding, destroying an alien planet, and killing its inhabitants. When things go awry, Kirk (Chris Pine) makes some brash decisions and even though he  [ Read More ]

Jurassic-Park

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Shockya.com moms out there! Sadly we can’t send everyone flowers, but would you settle for a little Rob Stark and Adam Scott to celebrate the holiday? The “Game of Thrones” King of the North, Richard Madden, was just recruited to play the prince in Kenneth Branagh’s “Cinderella” while “Hot Tub Time Machine” will likely swap John Cusack for Adam Scott in the sequel. In other dashing Hollywood heartthrob news, Tom Cruise just locked himself in for another round of “Mission: Impossible” and Ewan McGregor is the latest A-lister to join the seemingly forever troubled “Jane Got a Gun.” Ready for the details on the  [ Read More ]

Shockya.com has the pleasure of breaking the news; Chioke Nassor’s “How to Follow Strangers” will open the 2013 L.E.S. Film Festival at the Landmark Sunshine Cinema on June 13th.

Chris Roberti steps in as Casey, a man who becomes so obsessed with the incident that he fakes his own disappearance to find out whether or not anyone would realize he’s gone. The other portion focuses on Ellie, a woman who regularly sees Casey during her daily commute and actually does  [ Read More ]

Interview: Aftershock’s Eli Roth

Interview: Aftershock’s Eli Roth

When you put Eli Roth’s name on a film, you know what you’re getting, but only to a degree. There are just no bounds to how far this guy will go to tear helpless victims apart in the most gruesome ways possible and in this case, that means flying down to Chile to shoot a post-earthquake bloodbath. Roth both produced and stars in the film as Gringo, an American divorcee looking to let loose and have a good time with his buddy Ariel (Ariel Levy), and Ariel’s lifelong friend, Pollo (Nicholás Martínez). While the guys are soaking up the Chile nightlife with their new lady friends Monica, Kylie, and Irina  [ Read More ]

Iron-Man-3-Thumb

Here we go again. Another wannabe summer tentpole is about to make its way into theaters, but the question is, will “Iron Man 3” move over enough to give “The Great Gatsby” a significant share of the profits? Probably not. If “Iron Man 3” keeps in line with “The Dark Knight Rises,” it’s in for a 60% hit, but thanks to such an enormous opening, that’ll still leave it with $70 million and that’ll be more than enough to trump “Gatsby” and stay at #1. As for “Gatsby,” between the tough competition and lackluster reviews, it’ll be lucky to match the “Les Miserables” $27 million opening. Also new to theaters  [ Read More ]

Title: Aftershock Directed By: Nicolás López Starring: Eli Roth, Andrea Osvárt, Ariel Levy, Nicholás Martínez, Lorenza Izzo, Natasha Yarovenko If you’re into Eli Roth-style gore, “Aftershock” is satisfying enough – period. Gringo’s (Eli Roth) enjoying some time in Chile with his buddy Ariel (Ariel Levy) and Ariel’s lifelong friend Pollo (Nicholás Martínez). Courtesy of Pollo’s minor celebrity status and seemingly bottomless bank account, the guys get access to all the hottest parties and the chance to take some ladies along for the ride. The divorced Gringo, recently single Ariel and ever-horny Pollo are thrilled to take their new Hungarian friends Irina, Kylie, and Monica (Natasha Yarovenko, Lorenza Izzo, and Andrea  [ Read More ]

Leonardo-DiCaprio-The-Great-Gatsby

Title: The Great Gatsby Directed By: Baz Luhrmann Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan, Joel Edgerton, Isla Fisher, Jason Clarke Baz Luhrmann’s “The Great Gatsby” is brimming with stellar components – it’s just too bad they never really come together. Like the F. Scott Fitzgerald book, “The Great Gatsby” is told from the perspective of Tobey Maguire’s Nick Carraway. He comes to New York City to work as a bonds salesman and settles down in a little cottage on Long Island right across the bay from his cousin, Daisy (Carey Mulligan), and her husband, Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton). Nick doesn’t fit into the ritzy West Egg lifestyle, but soon  [ Read More ]

Summer doesn’t technically begin until June 21st, but the summer movie season has certainly begun. “Iron Man 3” just blew away the first weekend of May, crushing the competition with a wildly impressive $175.3 million start. We’ve got a number of upcoming projects vying for a similar blockbuster status, making big moves in their casting departments to conjure interest and hopefully eventually draw a crowd. The “Pride, Prejudice and Zombies” adaptation is back on the map with its new director, Burr Steers, recruiting Lily Collins to star. Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar” also just got a whole lot bigger by adding Michael Caine and possibly Jessica Chastain to the cast while Michael  [ Read More ]

Onata_Aprile_Alexander_Skarsgard_What_Maisie_Knew

Alexander Skarsgård may tower over his tiny “What Maisie Knew” co-star, Onata Aprile, but that didn’t keep the pair from striking an instant connection, something that resulted in an incredible on screen chemistry and also left both with a particularly strong friendship when filming was done. Aprile leads as six-year-old Maisie. Even while her parents (Steve Coogan and Julianne Moore) still live under the same roof, Maisie spends most of her time with her nanny, Margo (Joanna Vanderham), but now that they’re separated and struggling through a heated custody battle, Maisie’s lifestyle is completely erratic, going from parent to parent and often to Margo or whoever will watch her when  [ Read More ]
