Movie Review: The Boss of it All
Reel Weekend | 29 February 2008
The Boss of it All is definitely a comedy, but director Lars von Trier goes out of his way to subvert the genre. The first thing we hear is the director's voice, telling us exactly what kind of film we're going to be watching, and he pops up a bit later to inform us when we're at the halfway point. He also directs using a process called Automavision, in which a computer randomly chooses the camera angles, meaning that at any point, characters will disappear out of frame and sentences will be cut off in mid-flow. Police Academy this ain't...
Reel Weekend | 15 February 2008
Be Kind Rewind is the latest film from French maverick Michel Gondry, who previously brought us Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and last year's The Science of Sleep. Jerry (Jack Black) and Mike (Mos Def) are given the job of looking after a crumbling VHS-only video store when owner Mr Fletcher (Danny Glover) goes away for a few days. Unfortunately, Black gets magnetised while committing an act of environmental terrorism, and somehow wipes every tape in the store. So the bungling duo take it upon themselves to remake the movies using just themselves and an old camera...

Luckily this isn't a retread of Roland Emmerich's woeful Godzilla remake, but Lost creator JJ Abrams' hip, handheld take on the traditional monsterfest...
Movie Review: Things We Lost in the Fire
Reel Weekend | 01 February 2008
Susanne Bier's Things We Lost in the Fire once again provides Halle Berry with a proper meaty dramatic role. In this sombre grief-fest, Halle plays a recently widowed woman who strikes up an unusual relationship with a friend of her late husband, a recovering drug addict played by Benicio Del Toro. It doesn't make for a particularly cheery night out, but it is an impressively serious look at loss and redemption.
Movie Trailers | 31 January 2008
After a five-year break from directing, Matrix directors Andy and Larry Wachowski return to the big screen with their colourful interpretation of classic kids' cartoon Speed Racer. The neon colours and cartoon-inspired visuals definitely won't be to all tastes, but the film looks set to deliver hugely ambitious use of green screen and CGI racing scenes in order to tell the tale of one boy and his car.
