Nikki (Ashton Kutcher) isn't a gigolo. He's a sexual grifter, a fun-loving, freeloading hipster who understands his greatest assets are his looks and sexual prowess, which he uses to charm his way into the hearts of the city's richest women and enjoy their lifestyle. Nikki gets a free place to live, fantastic gifts, A-list access, and plenty of sex. The women get to feel young, beautiful... and utterly fulfilled in the bedroom. It's a mutually beneficial set-up.

 

But then he meets a gorgeous waitress his own age named Heather. Unbeknownst to Nikki, Heather lives by playing the same game.  Sexually charged by a game of one-upsmanship, each shows the other their best grifts, and they unexpectedly begin falling in love - the one thing they can't do in the life they lead.

 

In this clip from SPREAD, Nikki meets Heather in a bar and soon follow with some dirty dancing.  Watch Ashton Kutcher bust some pretty sexy moves on the dance floor.

Movie Clips & Reviews: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE

In theatres on July 15

Harry Potter is back in the sixth installment of the boy wizard based on the J.K Rowling's books.  In this film clip (I Killed Sirius Black) from HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE, Harry takes on Bellatrix Lestrange (Helena Bonham Carter) who killed Harry's uncle Sirius Black (Gary Oldman) in HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX.    

 

Movie Synopsis: 

Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching.

Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort's defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn't counted on Romilda Vane's chocolates! And then there's Hermione, simmering with jealousy but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.


This film has been rated PG for scary images, some violence, language and mild sensuality.

Movie Reviews & Clip: The Ugly Truth

Star InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar InactiveStar Inactive

Grey's Anatomy's Katherine Heigl is a romantically challenged morning show producer who takes advice from Gerard Butler, a chauvinistic correspondent, on how to hook a guy.  

In this clip (watch above) from THE UGLY TRUTH (Babes Wrestling in Jello), Heigl watches Butler in action with two sexy clad bikini girls.  

Movie Reviews

CineMovie sent a movie fan Angela O'Brien to see an early screening of THE UGLY TRUTH and this is what she had to say about the movie.

 

Film critics across the country are giving poor reviews to "The Ugly Truth", saying that it's misogynistic content is degrading to women and intent on setting back the progress of the women's movement. However, the truth of the matter is if you have a sense of humor and want to have a good time, this movie is really funny and enjoyable.
 
Abby (Katherine Heigl) is a tightly wound producer of a miserably failing Sacramento newscast. In an attempt to boost ratings, the station manager hires Mike (Gerard Butler), a the host of a cable access program telling me the "ugly truth" about women and relationships. Soon the 9am newscast, anchored by a married couple whose spark has fizzled out, is spiced up with Jell-o wresting twins and tips on the sex lives of monkeys and why they fare better with the opposite sex than humans. Abby, who is also miserably failing in the dating world, goes to Mike with a bet.  If he helps her land the man of her dreams, Colin (Eric Winter), who just moved in next-door, she will start giving him respect and credit in the newsroom. And if he fails, Mike will resign from his position at the news station. 

As the movie continues, Mike helps Abby court Colin, giving her tips on how to win him over. On each of Abby's dates, Mike wires her with an earpiece and tells her things to do and say while trying to impress him. The comic highlight of the movie is a scene where Abby wears a pair of remote control panties to a company dinner. Without saying any more, this is definitely the best "at the table orgasm" scene since When Harry Met Sally. 

I can definitely see how someone without a funny bone in their body might think this film was degrading to women or vulgarly offensive due to all the sexual references, but it is well written and fantastically acted. Butler lights up the screen with his good looks and charm and makes it easy to overlook the douche-bag he is portraying. Heigl is equally charming, although she has been cast into yet another role that is interchangeable with her character Izzie Stevens on "Grey's Anatomy". She is taking a step up in this film, however, co-executive producing "The Ugly Truth" with her mother Betty. 

Overall, I would recommend this movie to both men and women who aren't easily offended and really enjoy films of the Judd Apatow-type genre. This is truthfully one of the funniest movies I have seen in a very long time.

The Wrestler 

Bruce Springsteen lends his musical talents to The Wrestler with an original song for the movie.  Watch clips from The Wrestler starring Golden Globe nominees Mickey Roarke and Marisa Tomei with the Golden Globe nominee for best original score.

Synopsis: 

Randy "The Ram" Robinson, a 1980s-era pro wrestler, has become a burnt-out shell of his former self. After he has a heart attack during a small-time match, a doctor tells him he could die if he fights again. In an effort to build a new life, Robinson takes a job at a deli, courts an aging stripper and tries to build a relationship with his detached daughter. But the prospect of a rematch with his old nemesis, the Ayatollah, proves too tempting to resist, even if it means risking his life.

Movie Reviews

CineMovie.TV review: 

The Wrestler is truly an original film with real characters that you can reach out and touch.  You feel the pain of Mickey Rourke's Ram character with his distorted face and body, reminding the viewer that this has been, has lost all his former glory as a wrestler and is alone in the world. 

Mickey Rourke's captured this character so well because he has lived the "has been" status in real life.  After a promising start in Hollywood, his drug abuse and antics put him in a Britney Spears downturn and Hollywood stopped calling.  He took up boxing and his face is a victim of the ring.

Marisa Tomei, too, bares it all literally as a middle-aged stripper, single mom and Ram's love interest.  Tomei is a beautiful woman so you don't believe at first that pimpled-faced patrons reject her because of her age but once you see her ragged and lined face in better light, it becomes a reality.  Like Ram, her aging status is worn on her face and body reminding her, she too, is in a profession she won't be able to maintain for long.

Shot dogma style, the viewer gets a sense of watching a reality show with real characters and settings but the difference comes with the subtle acting performances and Darren Aronofsky's great direction.

This is filmmaking at it's best and it's rawness is something that is truly lacking in the world of pumped up cinema.  A must see.

THE TALE OF DESPEREAUX

Tiny and graced with oversized ears, Despereaux was born too big for his little world. Refusing to live his life cowering, he befriends a Princess named Pea and learns to read (rather than eat) books -- reveling in stories of knights, dragons and fair maidens. Banished from Mouseworld for being more man than mouse, Despereaux is rescued by another outcast, Roscuro, who also wants to hear the tales. But when the Princess dismisses Roscuro's friendship, he becomes the ultimate rat and plots revenge with fellow outsider Mig. After Pea is kidnapped, Despereaux discovers he is the only one who can rescue her...and that even the tiniest mouse can find the courage of a knight in shining armor.

Watch as Despereaux is put in the lion's den with....a cat in the above movie clip.
