Hot Pursuit casts Witherspoon as a straight-laced, possibly inept cop who is charged with escorting Vergara, the widow…

Is it weird to watch Woody Allen working as a self-styled pimp, given his own, er, unusual sexual history? Maybe so, and perhaps that just makes this new trailer for John Turturro's film Fading Gigolo more, er, striking. I keep waiting for the whole thing to be revealed as an extended dream sequence, given that…

3D trailers are great if you're watching them in a 3D movie theater with your 3D glasses on, but so-called 3D trailers on the Internet usually aren't anything special. Since the effects don't work on our computers, most "3D trailers" just turn out to be 2D trailers with action-packed scenes that we can sorta-kinda picture…

At this point you probably know what the Robert Rodriguez film Machete Kills is all about, so a new red-band trailer is just a mid-week distraction. But if you're looking for the sort of distraction that involves wild violence, exploitative action, and a knife fight with Mel Gibson, this is going to be perfect. This…

The marketing team at Apple would have you believe that there's an app for everything, but when you're a killer agent, sometimes you need your tools to be a little more hands-on. Count on Robert Rodriguez to fix that problem by hiding a blade inside the device. That's just one of the many ridiculous sights…

Subtlety and restraint have their place in cinema, but Robert Rodriguez's Machete Kills isn't it. The sequel to Rodriguez's 2010 action thriller features deadly broads, weaponized boobs, a cackling madman, President Charlie Sheen (or President Carlos Estevez, rather), and a Machete (Danny Trejo) who's just been pulled back from the brink of death. Watch the…

The ascent of Robert Downey Jr. from near-outcast status to major movie star can be traced in part to Jon Favreau, who lobbied to cast Downey as Tony Stark in Iron Man. The success of the film minted the actor as a bona-fide star, and also helped push Favreau's directorial career to a new level.…

This morning Megan Fox, Ed Helms, and Jessica Alba announced the nominations for the 2013 Golden Globes.

Is minimal design in teasers now the go-to for kids animation franchises? Despicable Me 2 used the approach to pretty cute effect not long ago, and here an international teaser for The Smurfs 2 (which is likely almost exactly the same as the forthcoming US teaser) relies on little but a Smurf, a white backdrop,…

Remember when we thought for a minute that Johnny Knoxville might play Moe in the Peter and Bobby Farrelly version of The Three Stooges? That didn't happen, but now things have come full circle, in a way, as the new trailer for the film opens by emulating the warning that opened every episode of Knoxville's…

Although that first domestic trailer for Peter and Bobby Farrelly's The Three Stooges left me pretty cold, with just a month to go until the film's release it seemed worth giving the new international trailer a fair shot. Unfortunately, though the new video does more efficient job of laying out the plot, it fares no…

When we first reported on Fading Gigolo, the movie that John Turturro wrote and will direct and star in, we noted that Woody Allen had been offhandedly mentioned as an actor who might end up in the movie. That's kind of a big deal, since Allen hasn't acted in a movie that he didn't direct…

I'd like you all to do something for me. When you watch this trailer for Peter and Bobby Farrelly's The Three Stooges, I'd like you to picture Sean Penn, Jim Carrey and Benicio Del Toro in the roles that are now occupied by Sean Hayes, Will Sasso, and Chris Diamantopoulos. Because the fact that Penn,…

Fox's upcoming The Three Stooges, a long-time dream project of comedy directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly, is an object of curiosity for me. The movie has bounced through a couple studios, and once almost rolled with a high-profile cast that included Jim Carrey, Sean Penn and Benecio del Toro. Things fell apart, and early this…

The first trailer has dropped for New Year's Eve, Garry Marshall's not-quite-sequel to his 2010 hit Valentine's Day. If you've ever seen Valentine's Day, you probably know what to expect: big-name celebrities, a bunch of disparate storylines, and people crowing about how goddamn magical the holiday in question is. This time around, many mini-plotlines converge…
