13 Hours Michael Bay On Set

Michael Bay’s film are notorious for glorifying the military and showcasing the action in slow motion, but you won’t find any of his signature camera moves in his latest 13 HOURS: THE SECRET OF SOLDIERS OF BENGHAZI. Michael Bay says he didn't set out to make a “rah-rah” action film about these ex-military contractors, but he wanted to set the record straight at what really happened that fateful night on September 11, 2012 when four American’s died from an ambush by Islamic militants. He went to great lengths to bring accuracy to the action-drama by consulting with the brave survivors, the CIA and to stay truthful to the story told in the book, "13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened In Benghazi."  He gives us insight into his meeting with the CIA and why it was important for the world to know what really happened.

Joseph Gordon Levitt TheWalk

Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays high-wire artist Philippe Petit in THE WALK, the Frenchman who crossed between the two World Trade Centers towers in 1974. The Robert Zemeckis film is very entertaining and a real nail-biter with an enjoyable performance from Joseph Gordon-Levitt, but THE WALK failed to capture audiences in North America with a take of only $10 million. Gordon-Levitt talked to us about THE WALK not performing well at the box office, and what really counts when it comes to his movies.

THE WALK is now on Blu-ray, DVD and digital download. It's worth checking out.

The Revenant Alejandro Iñarritu and Leonardo DiCaprio on set

Reigning Oscar winner for best director, Alejandro G. Iñárritu (Birdman) is at it again with probably his most tantalizing and ambitious picture yet in THE REVENANT.

The film, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy, ranks as probably his most arduous as the production took about nine months to shoot in the most grueling of weather conditions. What seems to be causing the most buzz around Hollywood though was his use of only natural light; shooting limited hours each day waiting for the so-called “magic hour” to roll film.
