INTERVIEW
Talking With Jemaine Clement of PEOPLE, PLACES, THINGS

Talking With Jemaine Clement of PEOPLE, PLACES, THINGS

Jemaine Clement, introverted funnyman that he is, has an awkward charm to him that escapes most of his Hollywood peers. He’s coy with his comedy, firing off in quiet bursts rather than erupting like an attention-whoring lime light volcano. In short, his timidness is his strongest weapon.

Out in Theaters: PEOPLE, PLACES, THINGS

Out in Theaters: PEOPLE, PLACES, THINGS

If there's anything holding People, Places, Things back it's how slight it all feels - another solid entry into the increasingly salient category of elevated rom-com. But we must credit Strouse…

Out in Theaters: FANTASTIC FOUR

Out in Theaters: FANTASTIC FOUR

Even with the human torch flaming on, Fantastic Four’s fire only leads to a fantastic burn-out.

REVIEW
Out in Theaters: DARK PLACES

Out in Theaters: DARK PLACES

A hodgepodge of movie-like parts that fail to ever click, Dark Places is a monumental ball-drop on the part of writer/director Gilles Paquet-Brenner.

INTERVIEW
Talking With Jason Segel of THE END OF THE TOUR

Talking With Jason Segel of THE END OF THE TOUR

At the risk of forever emasculating myself, I’ll admit that after seeing the End of the Tour, I wept. I broke down into meaty sobs on the blustery streets of Park City, Utah. There was this pounding feeling of despair that washed over me that I just couldn’t shake. Bleary-eyed and shell-shocked, I wept for...

Out in Theaters: THE END OF THE TOUR

Out in Theaters: THE END OF THE TOUR

The End of the Tour is 2015's first dramatic ace in the hole; from the screenwriting to the direction to the two stunning performances at its center, it's a powder-keg…
