WINDFALL Cast Interviews – Jason Segel, Jesse Plemons, Lily Collins

WINDFALL Cast Interviews – Jason Segel, Jesse Plemons, Lily Collins Jason Segel, Jesse Plemons, and Lily Collins star in Netflix’s latest release, Windfall, a small ensemble thriller about a home invasion involving a CEO, his wife, and the man looking to rob from the rich. I sat down with them to talk about this “scrappy” little movie, the “happy accidents” along the way, and their favorite Hitchcock thrillers. I would love it if you clicked the Like and Subscribe buttons for more reviews and interviews. This helps more people find Paul’s Trip to the Movies!Read More →

Movie Review: WINDFALL

WINDFALL Director: Charlie McDowellStarring: Jason Segel, Jesse Plemons, Lily Collins, Omar Leyva Much like The Outfit that’s also releasing this week, Netflix’s latest release, Windfall, is a small-ensemble thriller with a few surprises along the way. Jason Segel is credited in the film as Nobody. We see him wandering the grounds of a gorgeous little getaway home in Ojai, California. It’s clearly not his house but he’s leaving his mark in more ways than one as he cases the joint. Before he’s done robbing the place, the owners CEO and Wife (Plemons and Collins) walk in catching him in the act. He’s a young billionaireRead More →

Movie Review: THE POWER OF THE DOG

THE POWER OF THE DOG Director: Jane CampionStarring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Sean Keenan, George Mason Benedict Cumberbatch has turned in memorable performances from Doctor Strange to Sherlock Holmes. You’ll see him in a whole new light as a rough cowboy in Jane Campion’s new film The Power of the Dog. Benedict Cumberbatch makes his character, Phil Burbank, someone who is not be messed with as he carries himself with a forceful bull-like presence. It’s Montana 1925 in a quaint little town. His brother, George, starts spending more time with local kitchen owner, Rose. As George and Rose fall in love,Read More →

Movie Review: JUNGLE CRUISE

JUNGLE CRUISE Director: Jaume Collet-SerraStarring: Emily Blunt, Dwayne Johnson, Jesse Plemons, Jack Whitehall, Edgar Ramírez, Paul Giamatti Pairing Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt together for a family adventure is a no-brainer. They’re a winning pair that will make you hop on board Jungle Cruise. The legend of the Tears of the Moon tree has mystified explorers for centuries. It’s been said that one pink petal from the tree will cure any ailment. It’s the early 1900s and Emily Blunt plays Dr. Lily Houghton who sets out from England to the Amazon with her brother McGregor, played by Jack Whitehall, to find the Tears of theRead More →

Movie Review: I’M THINKING OF ENDING THINGS

I’M THINKING OF ENDING THINGS Writer/Director: Charlie KaufmanStarring: Jesse Plemons, Jessie Buckley, Toni Collette, David Thewlis, Guy Boyd  Charlie Kaufman seems to confound moviegoers with each of his movies making us question what’s real, what’s fictional, and what it all means in the end. These Kaufmanisms are on full display in his latest, I’m Thinking of Ending Things. The phrase “I’m thinking of ending things” is mentioned multiple times in voiceover from Jessie’s Buckley’s character. She’s credited as Young Woman but is also referred to as Lucy and Louisa. She’s on a road trip to meet her boyfriend’s parents despite the fact she’s thinking of ending thisRead More →

Movie Review: THE IRISHMAN

THE IRISHMAN Director: Martin ScorseseStarring: Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci, Anna Paquin, Ray Romano, Harvey Keitel, Jesse Plemons, Bobby Cannavale Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran (De Niro) was a teamster who was taken under by the Bufalino crime family out of Pennsylvania. He could do their dirty work, which led to his working relationship with Jimmy Hoffa (Pacino) and this film charts the rise and unexpected fall between the two of them. The robust script by Steven Zaillian is based on the book “I Heard You Paint Houses” by Charles Brandt who interviewed Frank Sheeran and wrote this as his confessional to killing JimmyRead More →

NETFLIX ANNOUNCES RUN TIMES AND RELEASE DATES FOR “THE IRISHMAN” Netflix alerted audiences this week that Martin Scorsese’s new epic, The Irishman, will run 210 minutes. That’s 3.5 hours.

Movie Trailer: THE IRISHMAN

THE IRISHMAN Director: Martin ScorseseStarring: Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, Harvey Keitel, Joe Pesci, Anna Paquin, Bobby Cannavale, Jesse Plemons Martin Scorsese became synonymous with gangster movies with films like Goodfellas and Casino under his belt. He returns to that environment with The Irishman, named after Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran. Steven Zaillian’s script is adapted from the book “I Heard You Paint Houses” by Charles Brandt. Brandt’s work is an epic look at Sheeran’s rise to power under Jimmy Hoffa and his eventual involvement in Hoffa’s death. It’s a FASCINATING story, which will no doubt be accurately brought to life by Scorsese and his trusted partnershipsRead More →
