News has broken concerning a very high-profile new film project for Mexican-American filmmaker Robert Rodriguez. The man known for directing a wide range of different genre films (Desperado, Spy Kids, Sin City), will be helming a live-action adaptation of the Japanese manga series Battle Angel Alita for 20th Century Fox. Perhaps of even more notoriety though, is that the film will be produced by James Cameron and Jon Landau under their Lightstorm Entertainment banner, which certainly promises a hefty budget for the film, as well as an already built-in audience.

James Cameron has explained that he and Rodriguez have been planning to do a film together for years. Cameron has also stressed about how confident he is in Robert to bring his vision

    Film Analysis: The Godfather

    Wanted Movie Analysis

    "Wanted" is basically from a comic book that has limited series written by Mark Miller and J.G Jones, it is about an amoral protagonist (Wesley Gibson) who is discovered as the heir of super assassin. Russian director, Timur Bekmambetov, he is the cream of the crop, he turns this comic into a movie that make the viewers not sit still and make their adrenaline and cortisone levels spike with the actions. Bekmambetov used the similar style of shots and angles with his previous movie, Night watch. It's more to wide angle (long shot), so we can see the terrifying background like one of the scenes in the torture room, where Wes has been beaten up by the butcher. Not even that, there are many special effects that Bekmambetov applies in this movie, like slow-motion with sound effects that certainly provides that "ouch" reaction from audiences.…

    Corneliu Porumboiu's The Treasure

    There’s a cynical ridiculousness in the low-key “The Treasure”, the fourth fictional feature from Corneliu Porumboiu, author of “12:08 East of Bucharest” and “Police, Adjective”. I confess I expected more from the Romanian director/screenwriter, especially if we take into account the more valuable cinematic treasures mentioned above. All the features that characterize Mr. Porumboiu’s directorial approach can be found in his new deadpan comedy, which starts in a curious way, becoming overdetailed in its midsection, only to resuscitate in its laughable final part. Costi (Cuzin Toma) is a caring father, despite arriving late at school to pick up his son, Alin (played by Cuzin’s real-life son, Nicodim), a Peter Pan enthusiast who’s often beaten up by another kid.…

    Olivia Gadon Indignation Sparknotes

    Surprisingly mature for a directorial debut feature, “Indignation” is probably the best drama you can find today in New York theaters. First-time director James Schamus is best known as a screenwriter and for his longtime association with Ang Lee’s filmography, which includes “The Wedding Banquet”, “Eat Drink Man Woman”, “The Ice Storm”, “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, and “Lust, Caution”. He truly did a wonderful job here by deftly adapting Phillip Roth’s 2008 novel of the same name.…

    Amistad And Steven Spielberg: Film Analysis

    Both “12 Years a Slave” and “Amistad have their fair share of the true history behind each film. In “Amistad” Spielberg somewhat abuses history to make the film more entertaining. A prime example is the scene where we see the salve on the slave ship going through the middle passage and we witness how they are being treated. While that the film tells a true story of a group of Mende people from Sierra Leone, who take over a Spanish slave ship named A La Amistad, it is mainly A film of white hero worship. Much of the movie is occupied with the all white Supreme Court and where white lawyers defend the poor basically mute Africans.…
