FLATLINERS (2017): New Trailer From Ellen Page, Nina Dobrev, Kiefer Sutherland, James Norton…

In Flatliners, the new Niels Arden Oplev-directed drama/sci-fi/horror film; Ellen Page, Nina Dobrev and James Norton star as medical students. Students who experiment on ‘near death’ experiences that involve past tragedies, until the dark consequences surface.

Since this is a remake of the 1990 film of the same name that I also haven’t seen, I guess I’m supposed to assume that the previous version was good enough to warrant a remake. The kind that’s good enough that one of the original cast members, Kiefer Sutherland, has agreed to be in.

I’m rather curious and want this to be even better than the trailer suggests. Especially considering how somewhat nonsensical the concept appears to be, not that I have any expertise in the intricate workings of the human body, you understand.

Kiersey Clemons, Diego Luna and Charlotte McKinney also star.

Flatliners Release Dates: September 29th, 2017 (US & UK)…

TALLULAH (2016): Good Story, Well Acted…

January 30, 2017 Giadreams (themoviemylife.com) Leave a comment

I tuned into Tallulah because of the near enough justifiable madness I saw in the trailer; a person taking a stranger’s baby because said stranger is without a doubt an unfit mother.

Starring Ellen Page, Allison Janney, Tammy Blanchard and written/ directed by Sian Heder, Tallulah has a thing or two to say about the sacrifice that is motherhood. Especially via Blanchard’s unfit mother/dissatisfied Beverly Hills housewife character.

Well-edited and acted, it’s worth watching for the story . But, also, for the chance to have all the evidence so you can think about how close you’d have come to ‘taking the baby’, calling child protective services, doing nothing, or something else entirely, had you been in Page’s character’s position. Ponder on that dear friends!

Happy Film Loving,

TALLULAH (2016): New Trailer From Ellen Page, Allison Janney & Tammy Blanchard…

Talulah, a Netflix original film starring Ellen Page, Tammy Blanchard and Allison Janney is about a dissatisfied Beverly Hills housewife/negligent mother. One who hires a troubled stranger to babysit her toddler.

Written/directed by Sian Heder, the story appeals. However, I’m most looking forward to the performances by Blanchard, Page, Janney and Uzo Aduba.

Also featuring Zachary Quinto, may the execution surprise and delight.

Tallulah Release Dates: July 29th, 2016, Netflix (US)

INCEPTION (2010): Only If Other Films Would Stay Away From The Music

October 28, 2014 Giadreams (themoviemylife.com) 9 Comments

Part of what makes Christopher Nolan’s Inception (2010) so very good, is Hans Zimmer’s brilliant musical score.

Unfortunately, since the the film’s release, seemingly far lesser movies keep using it. I say ‘seemingly far lesser’ because I can’t actually see myself ever watching any of the offending titles.

I admit, I’m probably too attached to the original film and music, but all the trailers I’ve seen that use the Inception score really don’t look very promising. If they did, I wouldn’t be writing this.

You only have to watch the following Airborne (2012) trailer to see and understand.
