Despite being met with a collective shrug by American cinemagoers (and almost all critics), Paramount has given the green light to a Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters sequel.

By Simon Miraudo February 5, 2013 Norwegian writer-director Tommy Wirkola made a name for himself with the undead Nazi horror flick Dead Snow, but pitched the premise of his first English-language feature Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters years earlier (while studying in Australia, no less).

By Simon Miraudo February 4, 2013 Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters is a silly, silly movie; a critique built into its very title. But don’t be fooled into thinking it delivers what’s printed on the tin! The name promises stupid fun, but only provides the former. This thing is supposedly meant to be funny, yet […]

Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol – Starring Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner and Simon Pegg. Directed by Brad Bird. Rated M. By Simon Miraudo. The Mission: Impossible franchise is one of the most uneven in cinematic history, with the quality wildly fluctuating from one instalment to the next.

Brand new high-resolution photos from Joss Whedon’s Marvel team-up flick The Avengers have landed online (courtesy of Superhero Hype).

Edward Norton‘s already bright star was set to shoot into the stratosphere following Marvel’s The Incredible Hulk. Instead, the famously-difficult actor saw the opposite take place: his last three films performed dismally at the U.S. box office (and headed direct-to-DVD here in Australia) and Mark Ruffalo took his place as Hulk in The Avengers. Well, let […]

The first teaser trailer for Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol has debuted online, featuring Tom Cruise once again doing the impossible. The question is: does ‘the impossible’ include resurrecting the M:I franchise?

Joaquin Phoenix almost torpedoed his career with a faux-flameout in the celebrity mockumentary I’m Still Here (totally worth it, in my opinion). According to Variety, he’s getting back on track in the most exciting of ways. Phoenix is in talks to star in Paul Thomas Anderson‘s Untitled Religious Drama (formerly known as The Master) as […]
