As critics share their Wonka takes of both the sweet and sour variety, Hugh Grant has opened up about his own sour experience making the film. The actor plays an Oompa Loompa in the Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory prequel, and he’s essentially all CGI. It turns out that the process of motion capture and playing a computer-generated character wasn’t exactly his cup of tea as he explained why he “hated” filming the movie. Honestly,  it sounds pretty intense. Ever since the first Wonka trailer dropped, we’ve known…

Here’s a peculiar misfire of a psycho-noir, for which Luke Goebel and Ottessa Moshfegh have co-adapted Moshfegh’s Booker-shortlisted novel of the same name and William Oldroyd directs.

Gif immortality beckons for the bizarre moment in which Anne Hathaway’s character grapples with what looks worryingly like a fake cat, throwing it out of the front door with a yowling noise on the soundtrack.The…

Does the world need a meticulous deep dive into the mind of a nameless assassin in the form a film? Don't ask David Fincher, whose cold-blooded and ruthless portraits of modern day evil in Se7en and Zodiac never misses a mark. But the blatantly self-aware, nameless hitman (played by Michael Fassbender) in Fincher's new film, The Killer, certainly does. He misses the mark early on, after an indulgent monologue about how he prepares himself for the endless waiting, before he takes that aim. He thinks he has it under his…

CLIMATEWIRE | It was the most intense rainfall in New York City history and caused the deaths of 11 people trapped in flooded basements.
