Just when you thought Vegas movies were all about young people living it up à la The Hangover, something comes around the corner to make you think again–say, Morgan Freeman joining Robert De Niro and Michael Douglas for a Grumpy Old Men meets The Hangover comedy, to be directed by Jon Turteltaub (The Sorcerer’s Apprentice) from a script by Dan Fogelman (Crazy, Stupid, Love). How awesome does that sound?

Last night’s Golden Globes Awards (check out the list of winners) were just about as boring as, well, the Golden Globes from last year and the year before that and the year before that. Surprisingly, somehow, watching a bunch of celebrities celebrating their celebrity just doesn’t have the luster you’d think it would, and the show was a total snooze—with one or two exceptions (watching Meryl Streep exclaim “Sh**!” when she realized she forgot her reading glasses during her acceptance speech was one of them).

Dolphin Tale hits theaters this weekend with a bit of a splash, though possibly a little too much splash and not enough rippling.

Her story is an inspiration for us all and her tale (pun intended) is one that easily tugs at ones heartstrings. The film seems like an easy sell, but despite its extremely positive message it’s not without its problems, the first of which is that they forgot the heart of the story.

Do you remember the thrillers Kiss the Girls and Along Came a Spider? Both films starred Morgan Freeman and both were based off novels written by James Patterson. Morgan played a character named Alex Cross, and he appears in more than his fair share of books. Since there’s so much material to expand on, Hollywood is looking to reboot the character and revive his feature franchise. The first order of business is to cast a younger, hipper Cross. According to Deadline, Freeman is out and Tyler Perry is in!

RED MOVIE REVIEW: This weekend in theaters the old gang gets back together in RED to perform the ultimate heist — meaning a bunch of well known actors got paid to shoot a bunch of giant runs in nice clothing. Overall this is very much the film you think it’s going to be; it’s has plenty of funny jokes, moves right along, there’s a lot great actors saying cheesy lines that through anyone else’s mouth would make you cringe and a very thin but easy to watch story.
Check out the review below and decide for yourself if this is the film for you…
