Borderlands HD720p 39MB
First trailer for this sci-fi action comedy based on a video game franchise. Lilith (Cate Blanchett), an infamous treasure hunter with a mysterious past, reluctantly returns to her home planet of Pandora to find the missing daughter of Atlas (Edgar Ramírez), the universe’s most powerful S.O.B. She forms an unexpected alliance with a ragtag team of misfits - Roland (Kevin Hart), once a highly respected soldier, but now desperate for redemption; Tiny Tina (Ariana Greenblatt), a feral pre-teen demolitionist; Krieg (Florian Munteanu), Tina’s musclebound, rhetorically challenged protector; Tannis (Jamie Lee Curtis), the scientist who’s seen it all; and Claptrap (Jack Black), a persistently wiseass robot. Directed by Eli Roth (Hostel, Hostel 2).
Juvenile jokes about pee and poo, and Blanchett, Hart, Ramírez and Curtis look like they're doing cosplay. With the right mindset it could still be entertaining.
Sasquatch Sunset HD720p 27MB
Very unusual adventure comedy set in the misty forests of North America, where a family of Sasquatches (Riley Keough, Jesse Eisenberg) - possibly the last of their enigmatic kind - embark on an absurdist, epic, hilarious, and ultimately poignant journey over the course of one year. These shaggy and noble giants fight for survival as they find themselves on a collision course with the ever-changing world around them coalescing into the greatest Bigfoot story ever told. Written and directed by the Zellner Brothers (Kumiko The Treasure Hunter, Damsel).
To be clear, this is actors like Eisenberg and Keough for about ninety minutes wearing hairy costumes and not uttering a single word, only communicating by snarling and barking. Festival reviews are divided if one needs to see a whole movie like this, but there's definitely some curiosity value.
Damsel HD720p 37MB
Fantasy action adventure about a dutiful damsel (Millie Bobby Brown) who agrees to marry a handsome prince (Nick Robinson), only to find the royal family has recruited her as a sacrifice to repay an ancient debt. Thrown into a cave with a fire-breathing dragon, she must rely on her wits and will to survive. Angela Bassett, Robin Wright, Ray Winstone and Shohreh Aghdashloo are also part of the cast. Directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (28 Weeks Later ,Intacto).
That's not your average fairy-tale plot summary. Looks kind of at the same time cheap and ambitious. Will start streaming on Netflix March 8th.
The Beast - La bête HD720p 19MB
Ambitious sc-fi drama set in the year 2044: artificial intelligence controls all facets of a stoic society as humans routinely “erase” their feelings. Hoping to eliminate pain caused by their past-life romances, Gabrielle (Léa Seydoux) continually falls in love with different incarnations of Louis (George MacKay). Set first in Belle Époque-era Paris Louis is a British man who woos her away from a cold husband, then in early 21st Century Los Angeles, he is a disturbed American bent on delivering violent “retribution.” Will the process allow Gabrielle to fully connect with Louis in the present, or are the two doomed to repeat their previous fates? Directed by Bertrand Bonello (Saint Laurent).
It looks a bit nightmarish, but festival reviews indicate it's worth seeing if you look for something more challenging.
Drive-Away Dolls HD720p 20MB
A new trailer for this comedy caper delayed by the various Hollywood strikes, directed by Ethan Coen (Raising Arizona, Fargo, Burn After Reading). It follows Jamie (Margaret Qualley), an uninhibited free spirit bemoaning yet another breakup with a girlfriend, and her demure friend Marian (Geraldine Viswanathan) who desperately needs to loosen up. In search of a fresh start, the two embark on an impromptu road trip to Tallahassee, but things quickly go awry when they cross paths with a group of inept criminals along the way. Beanie Feldstein, Pedro Pascal, Colman Domingo, Bill Camp and Matt Damon are also part of the cast.
Will now premiere in a number of countries this weekend.
