The Coen Bros. helped give the box office a needed Autumn boost with their comedy Burn After Reading, which debuted at No. 1 with an estimated $19.4 million. It was a lucrative weekend overall, actually, with many of the week's new releases doing better than expected despite a "crowded marketplace for adult-skewing films."

Righteous Kill: Mostly Just Killing Time

You know, it's nice to see Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro up on the big screen together. It's sort of sweet to see the two enjoy some banter back and forth, two grumpy older men who happen to be film legends. But is it worth sitting through the mediocre, thrill-less thriller that is Righteous Kill? I'm not so sure. Much of the movie feels incredibly familiar, and my guess is it wouldn't have gotten Read more

First Look: Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino in Righteous Kill

Awesomely, a teaser trailer has arrived for the highly anticipated crime thriller Righteous Kill, which has brought together Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino for the first time since they starred together in Heat (1995). Both men look grizzled and tired, which works quite well for the weathered old cops they're portraying. The two are veteran NYC policemen trying to hunt down a serial killer who Read more

Link Time! 1/15

The interview with author/screenwriter Shauna Cross over on FilmSchoolRejects reveals that Cross' book Derby Girl will be made into a movie that Drew Barrymore will direct and that will — reportedly! — star Ellen Page. If you haven't had enough Magnetic Fields for one day, You Ain't No Picasso has some great covers of the group's songs. I particularly like the Shins' take on "Strange Read more

50 Cent Joins DeNiro and Pacino in Indie Crime Thriller

Back in May we learned the exciting news that Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino will star together in a movie for the first time since they both appeared in Heat. Back then, they were only in two scenes together but now they'll be together for the entirety of the film, which is titled Righteous Kill. This news struck me as a little strange because the movie is an indie crime thriller with a budget of Read more
