The life and career of Dick Cheney, brought to us by the man who managed to tell the story of the 2008 financial crisis and make it funny. Vice follows Cheney from his humble beginnings as a blue collar worker to being the most powerful Vice President in US history. Not so long ago, if you'd have said to me there's a movie coming out about Dick Cheney, I probably would have laughed at the idea. But mention that Adam McKay is writing and directing, and that changes everything. The man behind such comedy classics as Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy and Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby has already shown us he can do serious (kind of) with The Big Short. McKay was able to make the financial crisis understandable, in a light-hearted fashion that didn't underplay the seriousness of the situation. Now he has put his unique spin on the story of a man known for having absolutely no charisma whatsoever, and actually made him interesting...and funny. Helpi

Edie Falco is the latest actor to join James Cameron's mammoth movie project, the sequels to his 2009 hit, Avatar. The star of Nurse Jackie and The Sopranos will play General Ardmore, a commander responsible for the Resources Development Administration's (RDA) interests. Given the military title it's being speculated that her character will be one of the franchise's evil villains. She'll likely be in charge of their private military/security wing, possibly Colonel Quaritch's (Stephen Lang) replacement or superior. Lang is said to appear in the sequels, although it's unknown in what capacity. James Cameron commented on Twitter regarding the casting: Edie Falco is one of the greats - I can't wait to watch her kick some ass on the big screen. Currently we are unaware of which sequels Falco will appear in. But considering the timing of the announcement, and the fact that filming has supposedly completed on 2 and 3, can we assume that Falco will no

According to The Hollywood Reporter, James Gunn is in talks to direct Suicide Squad 2, or The Suicide Squad as it has been titled. The Guardians of the Galaxy director was already brought in to write the script after he was fired from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. It seems like a logical step therefore, to bring him on as director. After all, he managed to make one of Marvel's most risky products a major success. Will he be able to do the same for DC's troubled rogues' gallery? 2016's Suicide Squad was the subject of major interest. Thought to be a lighter turn for DC after the doom and gloom of Batman v. Superman, it turned out to be a big disappointment for many. Major re-shoots took the movie in very different direction to what was originally intended, and a lot of fans were unhappy with the Joker being side lined into a much smaller role. It seems Gunn is planning to do something new with Task Force X. The Suicide Squad isn't going to be a direct

The story of a father trying to help his son deal with his addiction. Beautiful Boy follows David Sheff (Steve Carell) as he struggles to keep his son Nic (Timothée Chalamet) away from drugs. But the temptation is always there, and it becomes a battle that puts a strain on the whole family. This really is an incredible story, one that should be shown to young people in order to show them the dangers of drug use. The movie doesn't shy away from anything, and for that reason it's certainly not a happy movie to watch. As Nic spirals from recreational user to full blown addict, flashbacks involving David's memories of Nic as a young child only amplify the tragic nature of the story. Oddly enough though, the feeling it seemed to conjure the most was disappointment. It's not because the movie was bad, quite the opposite. No, the feeling of disappointment came from the heart-breaking moments in which Nic falls off the wagon. Through some fantastic performances, an

In 1987 Senator Gary Hart (Hugh Jackman) was the favourite for the Democratic Presidential nomination. That is, until The Miami Herald broke a story about Hart's extramarital affair with Donna Rice (Sara Paxton). This is the story of Hart's presidential campaign and his subsequent fall from grace. Hugh Jackman delivers one of the best performances of his career as the presidential hopeful, bringing charisma and passion to the role...not to mention some very big hair! Unfortunately, despite being very open about his campaign and politics, it would be Hart's refusal to address his personal life and infidelity that would be his downfall. Jackman - who spent a lot of time both with and researching Hart - is able to show all sides of the man flawlessly, including his frustration at having to deal with the scandal. Despite knowing the outcome of the story, Jason Reitman is still able to inject a fair amount of tension into the story. It's interesting to see a sca

Well it has finally arrived, and the first trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home does not disappoint. Here's what we thought. Needless to say the trailer does contain some spoilers for Avengers: Endgame, so read on at your own peril... Not seen the trailer yet? Check it out below: First of all, this is a great trailer, lots of intriguing snippets and no real spoilers - apart from the aforementioned Endgame spoilers anyway. Jon Watts returns as director, continuing to develop the story and characters first seen in Spider-Man: Homecoming. Peter (Tom Holland) is still working as the friendly neighbourhood wall-crawler, something Aunt May (Marissa Tomei) is aware of. With the help of Happy Hogan (Jon Favreau), they are using Pete's alter ego to do some charity work. There might even be some sparks flying between Happy and May. With a school trip to Europe on the cards, the teenage Avenger is looking forward to just being a teenager for a while, even electin

Dell Scott (Kevin Hart) needs a job. More specifically, he needs to appear to be looking for a job in order to avoid going back to prison. But a chance encounter with Philip Lacasse (Bryan Cranston) - a quadriplegic billionaire - puts Del in a position where he has to care for someone other than himself. The question is; can he get Phil to start enjoying life again? Based on the true story of Philippe Pozzo di Borgo and Abdel Sellou, and a remake of French movie "The Intouchables", Neil Burger has put together a charming - albeit cliched - tale of friendship. Yes, I said cliched, it follows the same pattern as a lot of these types of buddy comedies. But that doesn't mean it isn't charming and funny. The changes these two bring out in each other make for an enjoyable watch. The movies' selling point, as with all buddy comedies is the relationship between the two leads. Kevin Hart and Bryan Cranston are nothing short of great together. If I didn't know
