Indie film Chloe will finally be making its way to theaters on March 26th and we have a little trailer to get you excited for the new sexy (not too original) thriller starring Liam Neeson, Julianne Moore, and Amanda Seyfried. The film is about a jealous wife that questions her husband David’s fidelity and decides to hire an escort to see how far he’ll go.
Although the film boasts and impressive cast, the film sounds like a number of films we’ve seen before. And those who have seen it are saying similar things, according to our Santa Barabara Film Festival review “One cannot help but think of things like Fatal Attraction, Theorema and even The Hand That Rocks The Cradle, but Chloe’s not even as good as the least of those.”
Check out the synopsis, trailer and poster for yourself…

One of the big name auteur’s at this year’s Santa Barbara Film Festival is Atom Egoyan (not in person), with his latest Chloe. A sexual drama that bears a dubious reputation from its round on the festival circuit last year, it was adapted from 2003’s star-studded Nathalie (Depardieu, Ardent, Béart) and turns out to have been described quite accurately as a misfire.

From the award winning novel by critically acclaimed author Nicholas Sparks, comes the current box office champ, (breaking Avatar’s record) Dear John. Following in the footsteps of A Walk to Remember and The Notebook, director Lasse Hallstrom plays off that love lorn history to captivate a new audience. The film stars everyone’s favorite heartthrob, Channing Tatum as a soldier who falls in love with a college student while on leave. The always refreshing Amanda Seyfried plays the object of his affection, and adds a breath of fresh air to this 21st century love story.
Here’s what happened when we got the opportunity to speak with Tatum, Seyfried, and the creator of it all, Nicholas Sparks…

The two standout movies coming out this week are both love stories. The first is director Lasse Hallstrom’s adaptation of Nicholas Sparks‘ newest bestseller, Dear John. The man who wrote The Notebook, brings us the story a young soldier named John Tyree (Channing Tatum) and his one true love Savannah (Amanda Seyfried). The pair have good on screen chemistry and are not bad to look at. I definitely think this movie will be number 1 this week.
The other movie worth watching is Pierre Morel’s film From Paris With Love. This isn’t a love story in the traditional sense, although it is about the love one man has for action. It stars John Travolta as a bad ass Agent and Jonathan Rhys Meyers.
