Poster Madness 2012/13

Ouch!
What looks like a night on the town gone wrong, Ryan Gosling poses as a troublesome crime lord slash boxing gym owner. With a plot we know all to well, one man, Nicolas Winding Refn reunites with Gosling for what we hope is a similar premise supporting the disturbing concept of Drive (2011). For the full article see - Empire - Only God Forgives.










Horror Remake: Evil Dead
The Evil Dead poster dropped yesterday with a tag-line that begs to convince fans of the original franchise not to judge so quickly. It is easy to point the finger at yet another horror remake while consistently shouting "Bullshit, Bullshit", however with Sam Raimi's writing skills on board, director  Fede Alvarez can hardly go wrong...can he?. The plot is basic horror standard following a group of idiotic teens getting picked off in a spooky cabin. We wouldn't have it any other way...would we?

Evil Dead is set for release April 19th. See Empire's Evil Dead for the full article and teaser trailer.






Horror Remake: Carrie
After celebrating Halloween with a review on Carrie (1976) and with the release of the teaser trailer for the upcoming remake, I would be lying if I told you I was looking forward to it. While the 1976 masterpiece was fresh on my conscience, it was probably wrong to watch the teaser for one reason; it gives very little away but does immediately exaggerate the concept that made Carrie so original. Anyway I will shy from more pessimism and remain optimistic until the theatrical release. The poster however is not much to think about.









Oz: A mind boggling poster
Just one of many posters, the imagination within these images awaits the observers, revealing a wonderful cast and dream-like concept that promises to be one of the best movies of next year.
Sam Raimi recuperates an unlikely adventure in which I hope is supplied with nostalgic nit-picking in relation to The Wizard of Oz.











"Your Talking to god, so you might as well swear to me"
If you haven't noticed, "Gerry's reviews" is a huge fan of Mr Gosling, however he will be tested by a certain veteran of cinema both on and off screen - Sean Penn. Gosling and Penn are just a taster compared to the overall cast. The whole cake includes Josh Brolin, Nick Nolte and Emma Stone in a movie that is sure to deliver where "Lawless" had failed. Penn's character resembles that of Guy Pearce in Lawless, however Gangster Squad looks to run away with a plot that will surely out-way the movies of 2013 and the forgetful movies of 2012.
