Kingsman: The Secret Service HD540p 27MB HD720p 51MB
Trailer for another big screen adaptation of a graphic novel by Mark Millar (Wanted, Kick-Ass). It tells the story of a super-secret spy organization (Colin Firth, Michael Caine, Mark Strong) that recruits an unrefined but promising street kid into the agency's ultra-competitive training program just as a global threat emerges from a twisted tech genius. Samuel L. Jackson is also part of the cast. Directed by Matthew Vaughn (Kick-Ass, X-Men: First Class, Layer Cake).
Looks very promising and stylish, but I do get the impression that Millar's books all tell just variations of the same story.
Life of Crime HD540p 24MB HD720p 45MB
Dark caper comedy set in the 70s based on a Elmore Leonard novel in which the wife (Jennifer Aniston) of a corrupt real estate developer (Tim Robbins) is kidnapped by two common criminals (Mos Def, John Hawkes), who intend to extort him with inside information about his crooked business and off-shore accounts. But the husband decides he'd actually rather not pay the ransom to get back his wife, as he prefers living with his mistress (Isla Fisher), setting off a sequence of double crosses and plot twists.
Looks like fun. Jackie Brown, also based on a Elmore Leonard novel, features the same two criminals which in that movie are played by Samuel L. Jackson and Robert De Niro.
The Trip to Italy HD1080p 46MB YouTube
Michael Winterbottom (24 Hour Party People, Code 46, A Mighty Heart) reunites comedians Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon - or semifictionalized versions thereof - for a new culinary road trip, retracing the steps of the Romantic poets’ grand tour of Italy and indulging in some sparkling banter and impersonation-offs. Rewhetting our palates from the earlier film, the characters enjoy mouthwatering meals in gorgeous settings from Liguria to Capri while riffing on subjects as varied as Batman's vocal register, the artistic merits of "Jagged Little Pill", and, of course, the virtue of sequels.
Already broadcast as a six-part TV series in the UK, it will again be shown as a movie in other countries.
I'll Follow You Down HD480p 17MB HD720p 72MB
Family drama in the unusual form of a time travel movie. After the disappearance of an accomplished physicist (Rufus Sewell), his son Erol (Haley Joel Osment) and wife Marika (Gillian Anderson) struggle to cope. Years later, now a young scientist himself, Erol discovers a formula that could kill him, throw him into the unknown ... or bring his family back together. Victor Garber is also part of the cast.
I suspect interest in the movie will strongly correlate with one's interest in the cast members.
Wish I Was Here HD720p 61MB
Full trailer for this drama with comedic elements about a pot-smoking actor (Zach Braff) wrestling with adult responsibility whose last job, a dandruff commercial, was longer ago than he cares to admit. Pursuing his thespian dream has landed him and his wife (Kate Hudson) in tough financial straits, so when his grumpy father (Mandy Patinkin) can no longer pay for the kids to attend Jewish Yeshiva, he opts for homeschooling. To the chagrin of his hyperdisciplined, religious daughter (Joey King) and the delight of his less-than-studious son, he takes matters into his own imaginative hands, rather than sticking to the boring old traditional curriculum. Josh Gad, Ashley Greene, Donald Faison and Jim Parsons are also part of the cast. Second directorial effort by Braff, a decade after Garden State.
Trailer still music-heavy but now with added dialogues.
