Cloud Atlas

Tom Tykwer teams with Andy and Lana Wachowski to take on the epic task of adapting David Mitchell's sweeping novel that occurs in different times and places. The filmmakers enlist a crew of A-list actors, including Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, and Jim Broadbent, to play several versions (and races) of themselves. Their interweaving stories prove how the present can be affected deeply by the past, and despite its cast and how visually impressive it is, Cloud Atlas is a letdown. The DVD comes with the featurette, "A Film Like No Other."

A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III

Charlie Sheen, Bill Murray, and Jason Schwartzman collaborate with writer/director Roman Coppola for this self-absorbed turkey of a film. Sheen is Charles Swan, a graphic designer whose life falls apart when his true love (Katheryn Winnick) breaks up with him. Set in a stylized Los Angeles, the "comedy" outstays its welcome, even at a quick 84-minute run time. Aubrey Plaza, Patricia Arquette, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead also star.

Watch Charlie Sheen in the Crazy Trailer For A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III

The trailer for A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III has been released, and to be honest, the wacky comedy feels a little more like a glimpse inside the mind of Charlie Sheen.

The trailer for A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III has been released, and to be honest, the wacky comedy feels a little more like a glimpse inside the mind of Charlie Sheen. The actor plays the titular Charles, a guy who rides around in a car painted with eggs and bacon on the side, falls in love with a girl who is also part of an all-female Native American tribe, and seeks romantic advice from an afro-rocking Jason Schwartzman and a puzzled-looking child. Oh, and Bill Murray is there, too.

If this feels kind of Wes Anderson-esque to you, there's good reason for that. The film is written, directed, and produced by Roman Coppola, Anderson's frequent collaborator. While I'm not hot on Sheen, I do love Schwartzman and Murray. The movie is set to open in February, but you can watch the trailer after the jump.
