Maria Bello, Josh Wiggins, Kyle MacLachlan and Darren Mann are the stars of Giant Little Ones. 

Witten/directed by Keith Behrman, Giant Little Ones is a new drama about an unexpected incident at a 17th birthday party. The kind that changes the lives of two teenage boys who’ve been best friends since childhood.

I’m drawn to this because the trailer isn’t bad, and I want to compare the story to that of last year’s LGBTQ inclusive teen movie hit, Love, Simon (2018).

Additionally, I’m quite the sucker for good movies where parents to LGBTQ offspring do right by their children. This film certainly looks like one of those.

Kiana Madeira, Peter Outerbridge, Niamh Wilson, Olivia Scriven and Cory Lee also star.

Giant Little Ones Release Dates: March 1st, 2019 (US)…

In In Search Of Fellini, Ksenia Solo is a shy small-town Ohio girl who loves movies but dislikes reality. After discovering the delightfully bizarre films of Federico Fellini, she sets off on a journey across Italy to find him.

Maria Bello and Mary Lynn Rajskub co-star while Taron Lexton directs.

Although I can’t quite see myself going overseas specifically to search for my favourite director, I, too, really love movies.

I also love to travel. So perhaps any excuse to get on a plane to somewhere beautiful is good enough. I already like the Eat Pray Love (2010) vibe of this film. Now just hoping that the finished product is worthwhile.

In Search Of Fellini Release Dates: September 15th, 2017 (US)…

Starring Ben Winchell, Maria Bello and Andy Garcia, Max Steel is the new action/adventure/sci-fi movie centred around the adventures of teenager Max McGrath and his alien companion, Steel.

Directed by  Stewart Hendler, based on the story by Christopher Yost and with no direct connection to  Marvel Studios or DC Comics, what we have here is  a new superhero movie. One  where Max and Steel must combine their extraordinary abilities to work together against some dark forces and… as if you hadn’t already  guessed, save the world, of course.

Max Steel seems to have some notable differences when compared to other superhero movies; something which, at this current superhero movie domination of Hollywood, is definitely a good thing.

Whether the differences prove enough to hold serious interest for those already fatigued by this genre depends on the execution of this story. I already know right now that Steel is my favourite character.

I’m also happy to see that this new trailer edit is a definite improvement on the international version  of the trailer that I chose to ignore a few days ago.

Max Steel Release Dates: October 21st, 2016 (US)…

Ana Villafañe, Mike Doyle, Lawrence Kao and Avis-Marie Barnes also star.

Imagine the awkwardness of having to go through puberty at 30 years old.

That is the premise of The Late Bloomer, the new comedy starring Johnny Simmons, J.K. Simmons, Brittany Snow and Jane lynch…

Based on the book by Ken Baker and directed by Kevin Pollak, I’ll be watching in hopes that the movie will be executed well and be a little reminiscent of The 40 Year Old Virgin (2005). 40 Days 40 Nights (2002) also comes to mind.

I’m also excited about the father/son relationship between Simmons and Simmons’s characters. The clips in this trailer remind me of what I loved about J.K. Simmons’ good work in I Love you, Man (2009).

Kumail Nanjiani, Maria Bello, Charlotte McKinney and Lenora Crichlow also star.

The Late Bloomer Release Dates: October 7th, 2016 (US)…
