Kevin Costner has made great sports movies (“Bull Durham” and “Field of Dreams”). He’s made good sports movies (“For Love of the Game” and “Tin Cup”). And he’s made “Draft Day.”
Movies
The 2011 original earned $143 million in the U.S., but a whopping $341 million in the rest of the world. The sequel’s opening may be muted, though, considering the current glut of family movies, as “Muppets Most Wanted,” “Mr. Peabody & Sherman,” “The Lego Movie” and even “Frozen” are still in theaters.
Real-life best friends and comedians Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will co-star in a movie for the first time since 2008’s “Baby Mama.”
Continuing the success of their superhero franchise, “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” has set a record as the biggest domestic April release ever. The Disney sequel debuted with $96.2 million, topping the previous record-holder, 2011’s “Fast Five,” which opened with $86.2 million.
Think of it as a rock ’n’ roll documentary. Like maybe, “Don’t Look Back” without Dylan, or “Gimme Shelter” without Mick and Keith, or “Spinal Tap” without the succession of unfortunate drummers.
Netflix added several movies to its streaming catalog this week. Here are some previously unavailable flicks you should check out.
“Captain America: The Winter Soldier” is very good. But there are plenty of other comic-book adaptations on the horizon.
Take away the trio of ginormous helicarriers that are capable of destroying a million or so “combatants” at a time, and “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” easily could have been a member of the “Bourne” family.
Disney’s hit film “Frozen” has become the top-grossing animated film in box office history, the studio said on Sunday as the musical topped $1 billion in global sales.
After weathering a sea of controversy, “Noah” arrived in first place at the weekend box office.
Prepare to be transported to an era when staying in a hotel was considered exotic, romantic, even something of an adventure, and not just another sleepless night because you can’t stop worrying about the potential for bedbugs or who did what to whom on that bedspread that keeps brushing up against your lower lip.
Johnny Depp, Morgan Freeman, Channing Tatum, Mila Kunis, Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore, Melissa McCarthy and the living legend Clint Eastwood take the Colosseum stage as the convention draws to a close.
The goosebumpy, epic-looking opening minutes of “X-Men: Days of Future Past,” which showed the titular mutants battling Sentinels, grabbed me by my geeky parts in way’s last night’s reveal of 35 minutes of “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” just didn’t.
At least the new “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” movie trailer isn’t taking itself too seriously. I’m joking. That’s sarcasm. The new “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” trailer is totally taking itself very seriously.
