Jim Grant (Robert Redford) is a public interest lawyer and single father raising his daughter in the tranquil suburbs of Albany, New York. Grant’s world is turned upside down,when a brash young reporter named Ben Shepard (Shia LaBeouf) exposes his true identity as a former 1970s antiwar radical fugitive wanted for murder. After living for more than 30 years underground, Grant must now go on the run. With the FBI in hot pursuit, he sets off on a cross-country journey to track down the one person that can clear his name.
Shepard knows the significance of the national news story he has exposed and, for a journalist, this is an opportunity of a lifetime. Hell-bent on making a name for himself, he is willing to stop at nothing to capitalize on it. He digs deep into Grant’s past. Despite warnings from his editor and threats from the FBI, Shepard relentlessly tracks Grant across the country.
As Grant reopens old wounds and reconnects with former members of his antiwar group, the Weather Underground, Shepard realizes something about this man is just not adding up. With the FBI closing in, Shepard uncovers the shocking secrets Grant has been keeping for the past three decades. As Grant and Shepard come face to face in the wilderness of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, they each must come to terms with who they really are.
With terrific ensemble cast there is a reasonable amount of tension throughout, where one wonders what will happen next. These people exist in real life, some characters felt cartoonish and unbelievable while standing atop their mighty soapbox but actors like Shia and Robert are still able to wrestle such negative points to the ground. However, things to say about pernicious U.S. government policies of the day that engendered the Weathermen’s sometimes excessive protests — yet another deeply satisfying evening of cinema from the uniquely gifted, unfailingly dependable Robert Redford.

One year ago today, Oscar-winning filmmaker James Cameron dove to one of the deepest spots in the Earth’s ocean – and what he found could be a “blockbuster” for science. Bill Whitaker spoke with Cameron about his find. On March 26, 2012, Cameron completed a solo dive into the Marina Trench, the deepest part of the ocean, in the sub named WHOI which has plans to use the Deepsea Challenger’s cameras and lighting systems on another remote vehicle for expeditions in the Caribbean this summer.These systems were used to capture high-resolution 3-D images of Deepsea Challenger’s dives.

Everybody has a plan tells the story of Agustín (Mortensen in a tour-de-force performance), a man desperate to abandon what for him has become, after years of living in Buenos Aires, a very frustrating existence. After the death of his twin brother, Pedro (also played by Mortensen), Agustín decides to start a new life, adopting the identity of his brother and returning to the mysterious region of the Delta, in the Tigre, where they lived when they were boys. However, shortly after his return, Agustín will find himself unwillingly involved in the dangerous criminal world that was a part of his brother’s life.
This film is a dazzling and gripping thriller about contradictions and the costs of freedom with unwritten rules and a code of silence for some characters. Though it offers numerous scenes of violence, and Viggo, despite his slightly weird in some scenes, his acting way was more natural and believable than almost everyone else and executes some real Aragorn-esque vibes near the end. If you ask me if this movie worth it, my truly response would be this actor possessed good charisma based on his aggressively subdued work here and as good Latin film lover, you might see this movie even if the script is not as good as you think but is a good effort in all senses. You will have the last word! The film opens in New York City on Friday, March 22.

Emma Watson, the 22-year-old former “Harry Potter” star denied her participation to of E.L. James’ steamy best-seller, “Fifty Shades of Grey,” as part of this project. That would be quite a switch from the Potter movies.

Coming in a new video streaming service at www.GrindhouseFlix.com, host to the weirdest, craziest, and most unbelievable grindhouse films from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s – and brand new world premieres.
The first film to make its world premiere on the service is OogaBooga, a tongue-in-cheek grindhouse exploitation flick in the vein of Django Unchained, starring two-timeGolden Globe winning actress Karen Black (House of 1000 Corpses), Golden Globe winning actor Stacy Keach (American History X), Siri, the curvaceous pornstar, and Internet sensation Maddox. Ooga Booga is directed by the prolific Charles Band, founder of Full Moon Features, and follows the murder of an innocent African-American medical student whose soul is transferred into the body of an obscure toy, eventually extracting his revenge by killing racists in the city. Definitely has some of the most humorous voices, full of vibrant colors, cartoony style, and humorous visuals but very creepy with some grotesque and bloody scenes. Certainly the general idea of its story, makes you feel like there’s so much to discover still.

What happens when your new best friend is your husband’s mistress? Madelyn Reid (Academy Award-winner Marcia Gay Harden) accidentally learns of her husband’s infidelity when she saves his sexy young mistress Lucy (Leonor Watling, TALK TO HER) from a bungled suicide attempt. When her unsuspecting young rival suggests the two new friends take each other’s advice – on everything – Madelyn sees an opportunity to seize the upper hand. But the plan backfires when Lucy, an aspiring actress, insists Madelyn keep her end of the bargain and orders her to star as King Lear in a community production, with Lucy playing The Fool. Things really get out of control when Lucy starts giving Madelyn instructions on dealing with an amorous coworker and a handsome stranger (Aidan Quinn, Prime Suspect, Weeds). IF I WERE YOU is a very entertaining look at the unexpected places that life can take us.
IF I WERE YOU features Joseph Kell, Michael Therriault, Gary Piquer, Bethany Jillard, Elizabeth Whitmere, Claire Brosseau and Valerie Mahaffey. The film was produced by David Gordian and Alan Latham for Paragraph Pictures and Tall Tree Pictures written and directed by Joan Carr-Wiggin (A PREVIOUS ENGAGEMENT). It really well structured in comedy full of versatility and cleverness with profound emotional connection. As a viewer might get a tease soon, just a little something to hold us over especially in death which is examined in a cutting memorial service scene that any survivor with a brain will understand magnetism is essential to the movie’s upward lift. Both characters know about their respective situations. Which, of course, makes things awkward when Madelyn befriends Lucy and the two bond over their relationship crises making it dramatic and comic at the same time. IF I WERE YOU will open in Los Angeles and New York on March 15 followed by a national roll-out.
