Get ready to swoon! In the trailer for indie romantic comedy Ruby Sparks, Paul Dano plays Calvin, a struggling novelist who creates a character — a female muse named Ruby Sparks — to help him finish his book. Imagine his surprise when he finds Ruby (Zoe Kazan) in his apartment one day as his living, breathing dream girl. She's in love with him, and Calvin has to figure out what's going on: is Read more

If you were a fan of the book Another Bullsh*t Night in Suck City and eagerly anticipating the film adaptation, then I hope you paid attention to character names, otherwise you might not have recognized the film version.

I have a little bit of Western fever after True Grit, so I may be more excited than usual for the Meek's Cutoff trailer, starring Michelle Williams. She plays Emily Tetherow, a woman whose wagon train gets lost as they attempt to take a shortcut over the Cascade Mountains in the 1840s. Conditions become harsher and more hostile, forcing the group to decide whether to trust the natives for help. Read more

Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Read more

I recently talked about the tricky territory that is the action romantic comedy, and the Tom Cruise/Cameron Diaz vehicle Knight and Day was poised to be another stone in the pile of failed attempts. However, the dynamic duo pulled through, and with the help of a clever script and lightning quick, entertaining action, they've delivered a perfectly fun Summer blockbuster. The lightweight story has Read more

I'm not sure who I'm most charmed by in this preview for The Extra Man: Paul Dano as a proper young man in New York City, Katie Holmes as his colleague and crush, or Kevin Kline as his curmudgeonly mentor. To be sure, Kline is the star, teaching Dano how to be an "extra man" — that is, a man who wines and dines older society ladies to get by. This is definitely a slice of a quirky indie, with Read more

Why does Paul Dano always have to play so tortured? That's the question I'm asking myself after watching this trailer for The Good Heart. Dano stars as Lucas, a suicidal homeless guy who befriends an older man named Jacques (Brian Cox) while in the hospital. Jacques has heart problems due to his hard-living ways and takes Lucas on as a mentee, teaching him how to run his bar for the day when he's Read more
