I may be showing my age, but I’ve never properly understood why everyone seems to think that Bill Murray is so very cool.

Not to say that he isn’t, but it does look like his latest film Rock The Kasbah will likely help me to finally understand the appeal.

Bruce Willis, Zooey Deschanel, Kate Hudson and Danny McBride also star. The trailer doesn’t reveal very much but it does have promise and so, I’m open to learning.

ALOHA (2015): More Bradley Cooper Please!

More Bradley Cooper, Please!

It’s hard for me not to feel this way after his brilliant Oscar-nominated performance in American Sniper (2014); not to say that his new movie, Aloha is a similar kind of film, mind you

Writer/Director, Cameron Crowe – the man responsible for the 1996 hit, Jerry Maguire is back with the story of a celebrated military contractor (Cooper) who must choose between two love interests, played by Emma Stone and Rachel McAdams.

As we all know, love triangles can get notoriously tricky, particularly if you have to choose. Let’s see how things turn out for the parties involved in Aloha. Maybe we can get a few tips on how to manoeuvre similar predicaments.

What a shock that Jennifer Lawrence is nowhere to be seen in this movie. I’d become so used to her and Cooper sharing screen time. Luckily, we do have two great comedy Actors in the shape of Alec Baldwin (30 Rock) and Danny McBride of Pineapple Express (2008)This Is The End (2013) and other Seth Rogen/Judd Apatow movies.

Bring on the love triangle shenanigans!

Happy Film Loving,
