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).

Movie Reviews and Clip: When In Rome

Josh Duhamel (Transformers) and Kristen Bell (Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Couples Retreat) star in the romantic comedy WHEN IN ROME.

KRISTEN BELL (Veronica Mars) stars in “WHEN IN ROME” as an ambitious young New Yorker who is disillusioned with romance.

On a whirlwind trip to Rome, she defiantly plucks magic coins from a fountain of love, inexplicably igniting the passion of those who threw them in: DANNY DEVITO (“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”) stars as a sausage magnate, JON HEDER “Napoleon Dynamite,” “Blades of Glory”) is a street magician, WILL ARNETT (“Arrested Development,” “30 Rock”) plays an adoring painter, and DAX SHEPARD (“Zathura,” “Baby Mama”) steps in as a self-admiring model. But when a charming reporter, played by JOSH DUHAMEL (“Las Vegas,” “Transformers,” “Touristas”), pursues her with equal zest, she’s not sure if his love is he real thing.

In this clip from WHEN IN ROME, Josh takes over the mic from Kristen Bell and wows with his Italian.

The film also stars Oscar® winner ANJELICA HUSTON (“Prizzi’s Honor,” “The Grifters”), ALEXIS DZIENA (“Fool’s Gold,” Tenderness”), PEGGY LIPTON (TV’s “The Mod Squad,” “Twin Peaks, “Crash”), and LUCA CALVANI (HBO’s “Sex and the City,” “As the World Turns”).
