Reinaldo Marcus Green's Bob Marley: One Love earned a lot of the titular emotion during its first weekend in release. Critics weren't exactly blown away by the biopic pre-release, but multiple metrics demonstrated that movie-goers were enjoying the story and the message that the film features. Those same metrics suggested that the feature would have a strong second weekend in terms of ticket sales, and that has panned out as the early numbers are coming in.Once again, Bob Marley: One Love is the biggest movie in theaters…

Carbs did not survive the apocalypse.Image: Roadside AttractionsBill Skarsgård came to mainstream attention playing Pennywise in the It movies, and he’ll soon be seen as The Crow’s undead hero as well as Nosferatu’s vampire. But he’s clearly not casting aside roles that don’t involve prosthetics and make-up, as this beefy first look at Boy Kills World reveals.Directed by first-time feature helmer Moritz Mohr and with Sam Raimi among its producers, Boy Kills World looks to have some John Wick in its DNA; it’s the story of…

Bob Marley: One Love made its debut as part of the 2024 movie schedule this past weekend, and it seems to have connected with audiences. The Marley-centric flick won the box office over Sony's Madame Web in tremendous fashion. Much of the praise for it has gone to its star, Kingsley Ben-Adir, who played the beloved Jamaican singer and sported some fake dreads while doing so. Now, the leading man has provided details on what went into crafting his faux locks for the feature.The Secret Invasion alum was a guest on The…

Kevin Smith’s “View Askewniverse” has brought us plenty of great characters, but no two have captured the imagination quite like Jay and Silent Bob. The stoner pair are hardly seen without each other, yet are opposites in many ways. Both born in Leonardo in the seventies, they met as kids in front of the famous Quick Stop Groceries. Silent Bob (Kevin Smith) is, as you can guess from his name, the more reserved one, and also prone to coming out with profundities and harsh truths. Jay (Jason Lee) is happier to speak for…

Bob Marley: One Love made its debut as part of the 2024 movie schedule this past week, and it seems that like the beloved musician himself, the biopic can really draw a crowd. Box office expectations for the film were initially moderate, yet One Love is absolutely crushing amid its opening weekend. What’s been particularly sweet about the buzz surrounding the film, though, is that the press tour has given the iconic singer’s loved ones a chance to reflect on him and his impact. One of his sons, Ziggy Marley, did just…

When Daniel Espinosa’s Morbius was released two years ago, the film was bashed without mercy by critics (I personally slapped it with one star in my CinemaBlend review), but during the movie’s opening weekend, audience curiosity ultimately overwhelmed the negative buzz, and it still managed to top the box office in its debut. The movie bombed in the aftermath of that first Friday-to-Sunday (plummeting 74 percent weekend to weekend), but the silver lining for the studio was that the project at least got off to a quick…

When the Jamaican linguist Dr Joseph Farquharson agreed to consult on the Bob Marley biopic One Love, there was one major motivating factor: wanting to avoid another Cool Runnings.The 1993 comedy about the real-life Jamaican Olympic bobsled team is a well-loved classic in many parts of the English-speaking world but has also become a cautionary tale about what happens when Hollywood attempts to “globalise” the Jamaican accent and distinct language.For Farquharson, who worked as an adviser for the One Love dialogue coach,…
