London got a taste of The Boss on Friday evening.

Bruce Springsteen took to a smaller stage than he is used to in the British capital on Friday evening, discussing the concert documentary Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band during an event organized by Disney+, which will premiere the film with Hulu on Oct. 25.

Following a screening of the doc, a Q&a that featured The Boss, who was welcomed with a standing ovation, long-time friend and band member Stevie Van Zandt and director Thom Zimny, as well as producer and Springsteen manager Jon Landau, provided additional insight. The session was moderated by Scottish radio DJ and TV host Edith Bowman.

“If you get the art right, the music right and the band right, you go out and play every night like it’s your last night on Earth,” Springsteen said about the longevity of the band.

After behind-the-scenes conflict marred the final cut of 2019’s Men In Black: International, director F. Gary Gray returns with a simpler premise for Lift. The story initially begins at an auction in Venice, where international thief Cyrus Whitaker (Kevin Hart) arrives to bid on an item. Keeping an eye on Cyrus is Interpol agent Abby Gladwell (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), although it becomes clear that this is part of the plan when Cyrus’ team evades the agents to simultaneously kidnap an Nft artist and steal a Van Gogh painting.

Under the orders of her boss (Sam Worthington), Abby offers a deal to Cyrus and his team for immunity. In exchange, they agree to steal the $500 million in gold that billionaire Lars Jorgensen...

Indian star Shruti Haasan will headline India-u.K. film co-production “Chennai Story.”

Haasan, who is also a renowned musician, has acting credits across India’s various language film industries and in the U.S. and U.K. In 2023, she was one of the leads in “Salaar,” one of India’s biggest hits of the year, and led British thriller “The Eye.” In 2019, she had a key role in USA series “Treadstone.”

Adapted from Timeri N. Murari’s bestselling 2004 novel “The Arrangements of Love,” “Chennai Story” is a coming-of-age romantic comedy set against the backdrop of Wales and India where Haasan takes on the pivotal role of Anu, a spunky private detective. The role was previously supposed to be played by Samantha Ruth Prabhu who is now taking a year’s sabbatical due to health reasons. The cast also includes Viveik Kalra, who was the lead in “Blinded by the Light...

Netflix's Lift received poor reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, but Sam Worthington has another highly anticipated project in 2024 to redeem himself. Lift's low Tomatometer and Audience Score indicate that the movie is considered bad by both critics and viewers. Despite Lift's negative reception, Worthington has Horizon: An American Saga to look forward to, which has the potential to give him a positive Rotten Tomatoes score.

Unfortunately, Netflix's Lift, starring Sam Worthington, has performed rather poorly on Rotten Tomatoes. However, the actor shouldn't throw in the towel for 2024 just yet because he has a highly anticipated project premiering in the summer that could redeem the year for the actor. Worthington stars as Huxley in the 2024 comedy thriller film, which revolves around a team of thieves coming together to pull off a seemingly impossible heist — stealing $500 million (in the form of gold) from a locked vault on a plane while...

Plot: A band of expert criminals led by Cyrus Whitaker is recruited to do what they do best — lift $500 million in gold from a passenger plane— but they must do it mid-flight at 40,000 feet!

Review: The entire plot of the Quibi/Roku series Die Hart hinges on Kevin Hart wanting to break out of comedy roles so he can be taken seriously as an action hero. While that plot was played for laughs, it was not the first time Hart tried something different. Both his films The Upside and Fatherhood, as well as the Netflix limited series True Story gave Hart more opportunities to channel his dramatic talents, but Lift is the comedian’s first project that is straight action without the reliance on his being the butt of the joke. Cast in a role commonly saved for Hart’s friends Dwayne Johnson and Mark Wahlberg, Lift is a big-budget...

"Three... two... one... lift!" Netflix has unveiled the final "New Year's Day" trailer for the heist action comedy Lift, coming to Netflix to watch streaming in just a few weeks. This action thriller comedy is one of the first big releases on Netflix in 2024 (along with Society of the Snow). An international heist crew, led by Cyrus Whitaker, race to lift $500 million in gold from a passenger plane while flying at 40,000 feet. It's from the same director as The Italian Job remake and Law Abiding Citizen, so it might actually be entertaining to watch. With Kevin Hart Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Vincent D'Onofrio, Úrsula Corberó, Jacob Batalon, Billy Magnussen, Viveik Kalra, Yun Jee Kim, Burn Gorman, Paul Anderson, plus Jean Reno and Sam Worthington. This doesn't look that bad, but it also but doesn't look that good either, like most of the expensive Netflix movies recently. Worth a watch? Hard to tell from just the trailers.

The movie Lift is an entertaining step in the right direction for Netflix's big-budget movies, with stylish direction from F. Gary Gray and a unique roster of cast and characters. The ensemble cast, including Billy Magnussen, Vincent D'Onofrio, and Yun Jee Kim, had a collaborative process, with ad-libbing and building their characters on set. Yun Jee Kim, in her American film debut, was initially anxious and nervous but felt lucky to have great chemistry with her co-stars, making the experience comfortable and fun.

A group of thieves face their biggest and most dangerous job yet in Lift. After being caught dead to rights by Interpol, Cyrus and his team are offered the chance to have their records expunged, giving them a chance at a new life, though have to find a way to steal $500 million in gold from a passenger plane during a flight that belongs to one of...

Kevin Hart assembles a star-studded team of thieves in Lift. The heist thriller centers on Cyrus, the leader of a group of international thieves, who is caught in a corner by Interpol and left with only two choices: he and his crew go to jail, or they help steal $500 million of gold from one of the world's most renowned crime lords and have their records expunged.

Kevin Hart stars in the upcoming Netflix original film Lift, playing a master thief attempting to steal a plane mid-flight. The film features a star-studded cast, including Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Vincent D'Onofrio, and is directed by F. Gary Gray. Lift was originally set to premiere in August but was delayed due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, with a current release date in early 2024.

The first official Lift trailer sees Kevin Hart attempt to steal a plane from 40,000 feet in the air. Lift is an upcoming Netflix original that is slated to premiere next year. The heist comedy comes two years after Hart signed a deal with Netflix to produce and star in four feature films, and also nabbed a first-look agreement for his studio, HartBeat Productions. Since then, he has starred in and produced Fatherhood and Me Time, but his latest looks very different from his previous projects.

"It's impossible." "It just hasn't been done before." Can they pull it off? Netflix has revealed the first trailer for a new heist action comedy called Lift, coming to Netflix to watch in January 2024 early next year. This trailer just debuted during a big NFL game, which means Netflix is trying to make this one of their next big hits. Does it really have that potential? An international heist crew, led by Cyrus Whitaker, race to lift $500 million in gold from a passenger plane while flying at 40,000 feet. It's from the same director as The Italian Job remake and Law Abiding Citizen, F. Gary Gray, so it might actually be pretty cool to see them pull this off. Kevin Hart stars as Cyrus, with Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Vincent D'Onofrio, Úrsula Corberó, Billy Magnussen, Jacob Batalon, Viveik Kalra, Yun Jee Kim, Burn Gorman, Paul Anderson, as well as Jean Reno and Sam Worthington.

Thrill seekers and adrenaline lovers will get their fix in Kevin Hart’s newest film, Lift. Hart is about to serve a platter that is not just an ensemble of laughter but also an action-packed journey.

Gugu Mbatha-Raw is the leading lady, playing opposite Hart. The actress has enchanted the audience in Loki series as Ravonna Renslayer. The movie also boasts an impressive lineup with Vincent D’Onofrio from Daredevil, Billy Magnussen of No Time To Die, and Úrsula Corberó of Snake Eyes. The supporting cast includes the talented Yun Jee Kim, Viveik Kalra, and Paul Anderson.

Netflix recently unveiled the first-look trailer for Lift, where Hart dons the cloak of a master thief.

Diving into the plot, Lift is an adrenaline-infused rollercoaster. Hart’s character, a master thief, is coaxed into a seemingly impossible heist by none other than the FBI and his ex-girlfriend.

Gurinder Chadha's coming-of-age comedy hits all the right notes - and not just in terms of its Bruce Springsteen soundtrack. It's 1987 and Javed has high hopes of being a writer. When a friend (Aaron Phagura) turns him on to The Boss, Javed becomes his No.1 fan and.uses the music for inspiration. Underpinned by the engaging memoir by Sarfraz Manzoor, from which it is adapted, this is a pacy consideration of teenage life of the period that tackles more serious considerations of the racism and prejudice of the period lightly but effectively.

Anne-Katrin Titze writes: The center of Florian Zeller’s intergenerational drama, The Son, adapted from his play Le Fils by Christopher Hampton, is occupied by a cypher. Nicholas (Zen McGrath) is 17 and lives with his mother Kate in Brooklyn.

Fittingly enough, “Three Months” is a movie about waiting, and while 12 weeks may seem like an eternity to its openly gay lead character, Caleb (Australian pop star Troye Sivan), it’s nothing compared with the decades others have spent waiting for a project like this to come along. Here, readily available to anyone with a Paramount Plus subscription, is a frank, affirmational portrait of a contemporary queer teenager. Writer-director Jared Frieder’s feature debut feels like the LGBT equivalent of “Juno”: snappy and refreshingly nonjudgmental in dealing with the consequences of a risky one-night stand.

In 2011, when the movie is set, it takes three months for an antibody test to conclusively determine whether someone who might have been exposed to HIV was in fact infected. That’s a simple rule of the road for sexually active gay men, but one rarely discussed in popular culture. It can hardly be...

Caleb is looking for answers. That isn’t surprising; after all, he’s a just-graduated queer teen desperate to get out of South Florida, an endless summer of nothing stretching before him, simply itching for his “real life” to start. But Caleb, already understandably restless and out of place, really has one big, major answer he needs: whether or not he has HIV. And while this might not sound like the stuff of coming-of-age comedy, first-time filmmaker

Frieder, who previously served as a staff writer on the cut-way-too-short series “Sweet/Vicious,” knows a thing or two about the dramatic plot he’s crafted: He lived his own version of it more than a decade ago. Over time, Frieder’s story has seemingly settled into the neat beats of the indie coming-of-age tale, complete with “wacky mode of transportation,” “unsettling subplot involving a Bff that’s treated way too tamely,” and even “Ellen Burstyn is the grandmother!

"I'm not really sure how I'm feeling. And I think that's okay." Paramount has unveiled an official trailer for Three Months, a coming-of-age indie dramedy marking the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Jared Frieder. This hasn't played at any festivals as far as we know, but MTV is standing behind it and releasing the film streaming on Paramount+ later this month. Troye Sivan stars as Caleb, a South Florida teen. On the eve of his high school graduation, everything changes when he's exposed to HIV. While he waits three months for his results, he finds love in the most unlikely of places. Aw this looks really lovely! Better than expected. It also stars Viveik Kalra, Brianne Tju, Ellen Burstyn, Judy Greer, Javier Munoz, Louis Gossett, Jr., and Amy Landecker. I am not sure where this came from but it might be something special. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Jared Frieder's Three Months,...

Godzilla vs. Kong was able to easily win its second consecutive box office weekend with $13.2 million. Adam Wingard's latest monster movie has been crushing it overseas too. As of this writing, the movie has earned $310.7 million globally, which is pretty impressive considering that it is currently streaming on HBO Max for paid subscribers. It appears that more and more people in North America are willing to head into a movie theater now that the vaccine has started to become more available.

In addition to winning the box office weekend, Godzilla Vs Kong also broke a new pandemic record. The movie has brought in $69.5 million domestically, which shatters the previous record holder, Christopher Nolan's 2020 thriller Tenet. Warner Bros. currently has four out of the five top five earners of the pandemic. Tenet is number two with $58.5 million, while Wonder Woman 1984 follows with $46.2 million and Tom & Jerry at $40.3 million.

Lionsgate’s Voyagers isn’t your ordinary “the human race is in danger” sci fi romp.

Written and directed by Neil Burger Voyagers follows a group of young men and women bred specifically to have a great level of intelligence and obedience as they embark on an expedition to colonize a distant planet.

Sounds like good, safe fun, right? Well, if it was it wouldn’t be a movie worth watching.

It doesn’t take long for the young group of what could be manufactured automatons to start to uncover disturbing secrets about the mission. As things begin to unravel, they defy their training and begin to explore their most primitive natures. As a result, the entire ship becomes chaos in space as they’re consumed by fear, lust, and the insatiable hunger for power.

Voyagers stars Tye Sheridan, Lily-Rose Depp, Fionn Whitehead, Chanté Adams, Isaac Hempstead Wright,...

Neil Burger only directed the first installment of the ill-fated “Divergent” series before moving on to more lucrative problems, but his latest film — a self-generated story that re-stages “Lord of the Flies” on a cramped spaceship full of horny teens — suggests an enduring fascination with the same kind of YA futurism that was all the rage back when Lionsgate was hoping to make Beatrice Prior into the next Katniss Everdeen. Between its dystopian overtures, antiseptic white sets, and diverse-ish cast of talented young actors forced to subsume their colorful screen personas into embryonic characters whose dialogue is limited to lines like “what does it feel like to feel something?,”

For better or worse, Burger knows it doesn’t have to. The middling but enjoyable “Voyagers” is meant to be a timeless parable about the primitive essence of human nature; if its space-age shenanigans are broadly identical to the beats of...

But when they uncover disturbing secrets about the mission, they defy their training and begin to explore their most primitive natures.

"You're not feeling what I'm feeling." Lionsgate has debuted a full-length official trailer for Voyagers, the latest from director Neil Burger. This is such a kinky and wild premise - a bunch of perfect teens born on a spaceship go crazy with sensation once they realize they're being drugged to not have any feelings.

Teenagers at school fall in love in coming of age romances, of course, but they also crop up in horror films, in science fiction, in thrillers, in musicals, in mysteries. The stories can be harrowing and happy, terrifying or tender.

What connects them isn’t the prom scene, the bit in the showers or the quirky teacher, they’re not even, really, films about love, or sex, or the lack there-of. The best High School love stories are about discovering who you are. Words is a sweet and self-aware school movie, sure, and its central romance to an extent runs along those familiar grooves,...

In the first teaser for “Voyagers,” Tye Sheridan discovers that experimenting with sex, drugs, club bangers and man’s most primitive urges is even more exciting than exploring the reaches of outer space.

“Voyagers” is the next film from “Limitless” director Neil Burger. It’s a sci-fi in setting, but it’s actually about how a bunch of hot young people who are discovering human pleasures for the first time let fear, lust and the insatiable hunger for power all go to their heads.

“Voyagers” stars Sheridan, Lily-Rose Depp and Fionn Whitehead with Colin Farrell in a supporting role. And the main cast all plays a group of young men and women who have been bred for intelligence and obedience, all of whom are kept in line by drinking a substance they call “Blue.
