Movie Reviews and Clips: Invictus

Clint Eastwood directs the true story of how Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) joined forces with the captain of South Africa's rugby team, Francois Pienaar (Matt Damon), to help unite their country. Newly elected President Mandela knows his nation remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid. Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africa's underdog rugby team as they make an unlikely run to the 1995 World Cup Championship match.

Movie Reviews and Clip: Leap Year

Amy Adams (Julie & Julia, Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian) and Matthew Goode (Watchmen, A Single Man) star in the romantic comedy LEAP YEAR.

Irish legend tells that, since the fifth century, women who find themselves in the land of luck can propose to their suitors who have yet to pop the question. The catch for these women longing to become legitimate fiancées? They only have 24 hours—once every four years—to utter those four little words to boyfriends who’ve been dragging their feet. And that day is February 29th. For any lady without that special ring on her finger, hopeful that love will prevail and ready to take fate into her own hands…she only has to wait for Leap Year.

In this clip from LEAP YEAR, Amy Adams and Matthew Goode pose as a married couple at a conservative couple's Bed & Breakfast. They are forced into kissing and they get carried away with their first smooch.

Movie Reviews and Clip: The Book Of Eli

In the not-too-distant future, some 30 years after the final war, Denzel Washington's (Training Day, American Gangster) Eli is a solitary man walking across the wasteland that was once America. 

A warrior not by choice but necessity, Eli seeks only peace but, if challenged, will cut his attackers down before they realize their fatal mistake. It's not his life he guards so fiercely but his hope for the future; a hope he has carried and protected for 30 years and is determined to realize.

Only one other man in this ruined world understands the power Eli holds, and is determined to make it his own: Carnegie (Batman's Gary Oldman), the self-appointed despot of a makeshift town of thieves and gunmen. Meanwhile, Carnegie's adopted daughter Solara (That 70's Show, Max Payne's Mila Kunis) is fascinated by Eli for another reason: the glimpse he offers of what may exist beyond her stepfather's domain.

In this clip from THE BOOK OF ELI, Gary Oldman's Carnegie and Denzel Washington's Eli have a showdown in a western-style stand off.  The film is directed by Allen and Albert Hughes (Dead Presidents, Menace II Society, From Hell, American Pimp).
