Movie Review: THE FATHER

THE FATHER Director: Florian ZellerStarring: Anthony Hopkins, Olivia Colman, Mark Gatiss, Olivia Williams, Imogen Poots, Rufus Sewell  There are a few stage to screen adaptations garnering high praise this award season with One Night in Miami and Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. You can also add The Father to that list. The Father is from playwright Florian Zeller who not only co-wrote the adaptation with Christopher Hampton but also directed the film. Olivia Colman stars as Anne who is struggling with the right kind of care for her father, Anthony, played by Anthony Hopkins. His decline with Alzheimer’s is getting more severe and more than she is ableRead More →

Movie Review: THE TWO POPES

THE TWO POPES Director: Fernando Meirelles Starring: Jonathan Pryce, Anthony Hopkins, Juan Minujín The Two Popes is an unconventional biopic for Cardinal Jorge Bergolio (Pryce) who would go on to become Pope Francis. The story is structured as a conversation between Bergolio as he shares his life story to Pope Benedict XVI (Hopkins) Bergolio is looking to retire but Pope Benedict is questioning his motives. Both are thought of to be men of God, yet come at their ministry in the Catholic Church from two very different ways. It’s becomes fascinating conversation from the ultra-conservative Pope Benedict and the liberal Cardinal Bergolio. It opens inRead More →

Movie Review: NOAH

NOAH Director: Darren Aronofsky Starring: Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Ray Winstone, Anthony Hopkins, Emma Watson, Douglas Booth, Logan Lerman Films like Requiem for a Dream and Black Swan are these artistic visionary tales that take your mind to a whole different dimension. I was a bit perplexed when I heard that writer/director Darren Aronofsky would make his follow-up to Black Swan be an adaptation of the biblical tale of Noah and his ark. All of his films are very different, and Noah was a passion project for him that he has been developing for years. Apparently he’s been working on the script since Pi cameRead More →

Movie Review: THOR: THE DARK WORLD

THOR: THE DARK WORLD Director: Alan Taylor Starring: Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tom Hiddleston, Anthony Hopkins, Rene Russo, Christopher Eccleston, Kat Dennings, Stellan Skarsgård Is it wrong that after three movies I still think of Vincent D’Onofrio when it comes to Thor? Other Adventures in Babysitting fans and I are still waiting for him to make a cameo in one of these. Chances are slim to none that it will ever happen but we can still hope for it. We do have the brutish Chris Hemsworth back to wear the red cape and throw that hammer around. Many moons ago a war broke out betweenRead More →

Movie Review: HITCHCOCK

HITCHCOCK Director: Sacha Gervasi Starring: Anthony Hopkins, Helen Mirren, Michael Stuhlbarg, Danny Huston, Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Biel, James D’Arcy We take Hitchcock’s masterpiece Psycho as an important part of film history. Many regard it as his best movie. Many people probably do not know the trouble that the master of suspense had while making the movie, let alone even getting Paramount interested in distributing it. After the release of North By Northwest, Alfred Hitchcock (Hopkins) was looking for his next big movie. Numerous industry insiders questioned if he could deliver another successful movie. Was he getting too old to keep making hit movies? Hitchcock startedRead More →
