CINDERELLA (2015): Cate Blanchett Is Who…?

November 21, 2014 Giadreams (themoviemylife.com) 3 Comments

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Cinderella (2015).

Cinderella is arguably one of the best fairy tales out there. Not because of the famous romance, in my opinion. But rather, thanks to the story of triumph over the unkind and cruel. Particularly when a person triumphs without sacrificing their character and principles.

I’ve watched the below trailer for director Kenneth Branagh’s live-action Cinderella remake a very high number of times, and the great music is certainly a huge part of the reason why.

Bring on March 2015, I say!!

Additional key cast includes Lily James, Richard Madden, Helena Bonham Carter, Hayley Atwell, Nonso Anozie, Stellan Skarsgård, Sophie McShera, Holliday Grainger, Derek Jacobi and Ben Chaplin.

PREDESTINATION (2014): The Next Ethan Hawke 2014 Hit?

November 13, 2014 Giadreams (themoviemylife.com) 2 Comments

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Predestination (2014).

Ethan Hawke has been very busy; a fact that makes me, an eternal fan of great acting talent, a very happy so and so.

With more than 5 releases out this year, including the already very well -received Boyhood, who can blame me?

A sci-fi thriller from sibling directors, Michael and Peter Spierig; the premise of Predestination involves time travel for the purpose of preventing crimes from taking place.

Quite the promising trailer we have here, isn’t it. And, perhaps unsurprisingly, Tom Cruise’s rather good film Minority Report (2002) came to mind as this preview played. Fingers crossed it’s great.

SIX DANCE LESSONS IN SIX WEEKS (2014): Guaranteed Fun. I Can Tell

Six Dance lessons In Six Weeks (2014), Gena Rowlands, Cheyenne Jackson

Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks looks like the kind of light and fun Sunday film experience I’ll want any day now.

A trailer filled with comedy, music, dancing, Cheyenne Jackson and the likeable Gena Rowlands, a.k.a. the older version of Allie from The Notebook (2004), I know I’ll be watching with high hopes.

It certainly helps that the film is based on a successful play.

Will you be tuning in to this one?

Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks Release Dates: December 12th, 2014 (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.

To help get that highly disappointing Airborne taste out of your mouth, here are two fantastic Inception trailers.

THE GAMBLER (2015): Trailer Of The Week

The Gambler (2015), Mark Wahlberg, John Goodman

I really do enjoy the art of a great trailer. Sometimes even more so than the films they’re for. I haven’t seen many good ones in the last few months. Luckily, here’s one I love.

Such super editing must always be highlighted, I’m sure you agree.
