‘The Gift’ Trailer #2: Jason Bateman’s Past Comes Back To Haunt Him By Angie Han/July 17, 2015 9:30 am EST After a promotional campaign that got off to an extraordinarily creepy start, The Gift went relatively quiet for the past couple of months. But perhaps it was just been lulling us into a false sense of security, because now the thriller is back with another unsettling trailer.

First ‘Ant-Man’ Poster Requires A Magnifying Glass; Trailer Out Tonight By Germain Lussier/Jan. 6, 2015 9:45 am EST The first trailer for Peyton Reed’s Ant-Man is out Tuesday evening. Just as a reminder, Marvel has released the first poster. The Ant-Man poster goes with the “ant” angle: it’s an empty white field, with a teeny-tiny image of the character at the center. While the poster doesn’t exactly work online, I can’t imagine seeing this poster in a movie theater and not stopping to take notice....

‘Free State Of Jones’ Preview: Matthew McConaughey Goes To War In Five-Minute Clip By Angie Han/June 22, 2016 1:30 pm EST It’s funny to think about just how far Matthew McConaughey has come in the past few years. As recently as 2010, he was better known for his tabloid coverage than or his acting career, which had largely devolved into dumb romcoms and dumber action flicks. But things started to turn around in 2011, with the triple-punch of The Lincoln Lawyer, Bernie, and Killer Joe....
