Since the apparent collapse of Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story, the task of introducing a new audience to the world’s most famously capacious throat and the woman who came with it has fallen entirely to Rob Epstein’s Lovelace. Unfortunately, a gorgeous performance from Amanda Seyfried can’t eclipse ninety minutes of hopeless bias and wilful whitewashing.…
We’ve started having conversations and filming them! YES, Best For Film has finally joined the modern age. If you missed out on our latest film club, you can relive all the fun of the fair with this exclusive interview with the cast and crew of zombie ultrashort Mike.
Since we met the Griswolds 30 years ago, the cast of this legendary all-American family have gone out to explore on their own adventures in the world of acting. From having success in the music charts, to starring in hit TV shows such as The Big Bang Theory and even becoming another of Hollywood’s most famous embarrassing fathers, the original cast from The Ultimate Vacation Collection, out now on Blu-Ray for the first time, is still very much alive and kicking!
Everyone loves Singin’ in the Rain, and everyone loves lakes. So why is this the first time they’ve been brought together? Win two tickets to an outdoor screening of the classic Gene Kelly musical at London’s picturesque Kenwood House, complete with a live performance of the score!
Miss out on our film club AGAIN? Shame on you – go and sit in a cupboard and think about what you’ve done. But make sure it’s a cupboard with WiFi, so you can catch up on what went on at Best For Film Presents… We Like Short Shorts.
Once again, the SyFy channel have worked their baffling magic and created an instant cult classic by simply ramming two scary things together. Sharktopus, Crocoshark, Sharkmonella – they’ve all been done, but nobody had ever thought of combining a massive fish with a natural disaster – until Sharknami. Sorry, we mean Sharknado. Anyway, here’s what we want from the inevitable sequel (apart from a sharkproof hat):
Thirteen years ago, Bryan Singer brought superheroes back to the Hollywood mainstream with X-Men. Ten years later, Matthew Vaughn and Jane Goldman reinvented the genre with swearily subversive thrillride Kick-Ass. Can Jeff ‘Cry_Wolf’ Wadlow’s sequel maintain the sheer joy of the original? Alas, Kick-Ass 2 is demoted to, at best, prodding buttock. A predictable disappointment.…
From August 23rd, movie goers will have a chance to see Lovelace, a film about the true story behind one of the most infamous movies ever made: Deep Throat. Starring Amanda Seyfried as Linda Lovelace and Peter Sarsgaard as her husband Chuck Traynor, the film looks like it will be one of the best of the summer and quite likely an awards contender. In anticipation, here is a list of the best movies about the adult film industry.
It’s no big news that Hollywood loves an unoriginal idea. Sequels, prequels, reboots, remakes – if it’s already made money, it’s going to make more. The latest Tinseltown news to set your eyeballs rolling is that we can now expect a 4th instalment from the Beverly Hills Cop series. It’s been 10 years since Eddie Murphy’s trash talking cop has graced our screens. The franchise is the pinnacle of 80s nostalgia – and that’s probably where it should remain.
Nicolas Winding Refn’s neo-noir Bangkok gorefest Only God Forgives has been dividing critics and audiences alike since it got booed by some of the less impressed guests at Cannes. With potent western tendencies, sly nods to surrealist cinema as far back as Un Chien Andalou, and oppressively-soundtracked dream sequences to make the most seasoned Twin Peaks aficionados cream themselves, it’s hard to ignore. Love it or hate it, there are a few lessons we can learn from this darkly violent acid dream.
