FUN US TRAILER FOR CHEESY SCI-FI 'MAIKA: THE GIRL FROM ANOTHER GALAXY'

By Alex Billington

"A stranded alien girl who must find her lost friend." Well Go USA has revealed
the official US trailer for a cheesy Vietnamese sci-fi kids movie titled Maika:
The Girl from Another Galaxy, opening in theaters this June. This already
premiered at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, playing in the
Kids section. After a meteor falls to earth, 8-year-old Hung meets an alien girl
from the planet Maika, searching for her lost friend. The alien girl helps Hung
make new friends and heal a broken heart. But danger lurks everywhere. Together,
they go on an adventure to help Maika find a way home and escape from some local
criminals. The fun film stars Phu Truong Lai, Diep Anh Chu, Tin Tin, Ngoc Tuong,
and Kim Nha. I actually watched this during Sundance and it's enjoyable (my
review), even if it is so cheesy and obvious, because there's a strange kind of
charm to it. Definitely meant for kids but some adults might enjoy it, too.

OFFICIAL TRAILER FOR DARK COMEDY 'THE MIDDLE MAN' FROM BENT HAMER

By Alex Billington

"Death is a hard way to make a living." LevelFilm has revealed an official
trailer for the indie dark comedy The Middle Man, the latest film made by an
award-winning Norwegian filmmaker named Bent Hamer - one of his biggest hits was
the indie Factotum from 2005 with Matt Dillon. This new one already premiered at
the Toronto Film Festival last year, but it hasn't made its way down to the US
yet despite taking place in the US. The film is set in Karmack, a small town in
the American Midwest that is so economically depressed that it hires Frank
Farrelli as a middle man to deliver bad news to people because none of the
residents can bear to do it themselves anymore. Norwegian actor Pål Sverre Hagen
stars as Frank, with a cast including Don McKellar, Kenneth Welsh, Paul Gross,
Trond Fausa, Aksel Hennie, and Bill Lake. This looks like a very strange,
awkward film but it's also made by an experienced filmmaker and doesn't seem
half bad.

FIRST OFFICIAL TRAILER FOR MARVEL'S 'SHE-HULK: ATTORNEY AT LAW' SERIES

By Alex Billington

"We just started a super-human law division, and I want you to be the face of
it." Marvel has revealed the first official trailer for She-Hulk: Attorney at
Law, one of their next series coming to Disney+ streaming later this year.
"You'll like her when she's angry," is the cheesy tagline for this one. Hulk is
back! But not the Hulk you know, though he's in this, too. Time for someone
entirely different. The new series introduces us to Jennifer Walters, played by
Tatiana Maslany, who becomes a green 6-foot-7-inch superpowered hulk. She tries
to maintain her job as an attorney while dealing with the challenges of being
big & green. It also co-stars Ginger Gonzaga, Renée Elise Goldsberry, and
Jameela Jamil, along with former Hulk stars Mark Ruffalo and Tim Roth (who
became "Abomination" in the The Incredible Hulk movie from 2008 - how's that
continuity). This does not look that good, but maybe they just need more time to
polish the VFX.

CANNES 2022 OPENS WITH A TRIBUTE TO THE TEAMWORK OF FILMMAKING

By Alex Billington

It's time again. The 2022 Cannes Film Festival begins this week, and I'm back in
the South of France for my 12th time covering this festival. I always love being
back, and even with updates and frustrations, there is nowhere else I'd rather
be right now. Choosing an Opening Night film for any festival is always a
daunting task. This year the Cannes opener is the French zombie comedy called
Final Cut (or Coupez! in French), which just so happens to be a French remake of
the beloved Japanese indie classic One Cut of the Dead. It was originally set to
premiere at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, but when that
festival announced they would have to shut down their physical in-person fest
due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the film backed out. I had a feeling it would end
up in Cannes instead, and yep, I was right. And here it is! Ready to knock the
socks off of the audiences in Cannes and remind them that filmmaking is a
collaborative effort.

WACKY TRAILER FOR DANISH COMEDY 'WILD MEN' STARRING RASMUS BJERG

By Alex Billington

"An absurdist chuckle-fest." Samuel Goldwyn Films has revealed an official
trailer for an indie comedy from Denmark titled Wild Men, which is finally
getting a US release this June. It first premiered at last year's Tribeca Film
Festival, and also stopped by the Neuchâtel and Fantasia Film Festivals. In a
desperate attempt to cure his midlife crisis, Martin has fled his family to live
high up in the Norwegian mountains. Hunting and gathering like his ancestors did
thousands of years ago, living in the wild. But surprise, surprise, Martin's
quest for manhood leads to deep and hilariously uncomfortable realizations about
the presumed masculine ideal. Rasmus Bjerg stars as Martin, with an extra manly
cast including Zaki Youssef, Bjørn Sundquist, Marco Ilsø, Jonas Bergen
Rahmanzadeh, Håkon T. Nielsen, Tommy Karlsen, Rune Temte, and Sofie Gråbøl. This
looks like a Taika Waititi comedy but from Scandinavia, with a hilarious cast of
characters and so many wacky scenes. I'm looking forward to catching up with
this sometime soon.

CAPTIVATING TEASER FOR HBO'S 'IRMA VEP' SERIES STARRING ALICIA VIKANDER

By Alex Billington

"You play tough, but you're so candid." HBO has unveiled a teaser trailer for
their new series Irma Vep, an adaptation of the cult favorite Irma Vep film from
1996. French director Olivier Assayas adapts his own film and turns it into an
HBO series, writing and directing all eight episodes of this for a summer debut.
The first two eps are screening at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, but the entire
mini-series will be available in early June to watch anyway. Mira is an American
movie star disillusioned by her career and recent breakup, who comes to France
to star as Irma Vep in a remake of the French silent film classic, Les Vampires.
In this one, Alicia Vikander stars in the main role that Maggie Cheung
originally played in the 1996 film. "This is the part she’s been dying to play."
The cast also includes Devon Ross, Byron Bowers, Tom Sturridge, Adria Arjona,
Fala Chen, Carrie Brownstein, Lars Eidinger, Vincent Lacoste, along with Vincent
Macaigne as her French director René. This looks even better than expected!
Might need to watch after all.

'THE PASSENGERS OF THE NIGHT' TRAILER FEATURING CHARLOTTE GAINSBOURG

By Alex Billington

"I often think of moments we spent together. They're like gifts." Madman Films
in Australia has debuted an official trailer for a French indie drama titled The
Passengers of the Night, ahead of it premiere at the Sydney Film Festival in
June. The film first screened at the Berlin Film Festival, but it didn't really
pick up any great reviews. Set in 1981 in Paris, this is sort of an
autobiographical tale of a French family. Left by her husband, Elisabeth finds
herself alone, responsible for the day-to-day care of her two children. She
picks up a job on a night-time radio show, where she meets the free-spirited
Talulah, a youngster she decides to take under her wing. "This heart-warming
film is filled with small acts of kindness that have profound effects."
Charlotte Gainsbourg stars as Elisabeth, joined by Noée Abita as Talulah, Quito
Rayon Richter, Megan Northam, Thibault Vinçon, and Emmanuelle Béart. This film
does indeed have an impressive soundtrack and some nice cinematography, but
there's not much more to it than that. I saw this at Berlinale and didn't care
for it much unfortunately, but that's just my own personal take on it. Worth a
look anyway.

DAISY EDGAR-JONES IN 'WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING' SECOND TRAILER

By Alex Billington

"The marsh taught me how to survive… but it couldn't teach me everything." Sony
Pictures has debuted a second official trailer for Where The Crawdads Sing,
arriving in theaters this July. The film is a Deep South mystery thriller based
on the bestselling novel of the same name. Both this trailer and the first
trailer are invigorating and promising looks at what might be one of this
summer's non-action movie highlights. A woman who raised herself in the marshes
of the Deep South in North Carolina becomes hunted as the main suspect in the
murder of a man she was once involved with. Where the Crawdads Sing stars Daisy
Edgar-Jones as Kya Clark, Taylor John Smith as Tate, Harris Dickinson as Chase,
Michael Hyatt as Mabel, Sterling Macer, Jr. "Jumpin'", and David Strathairn as
Tom Milton. Produced by Reese Witherspoon, with cinematography by Polly Morgan.
This looks so much better than it should! So many gorgeous shots in this
trailer, along with a riveting story about this woman and all the folks that
never liked her. Check it out.

CHRIS HEMSWORTH & MILES TELLER IN NETFLIX THRILLER 'SPIDERHEAD' TRAILER

By Alex Billington

"We're making the world a better place!" Netflix has revealed the first official
trailer for one of their big summer movies titled Spiderhead, directed by
visionary filmmaker Joseph Kosinski. He went and made THIS in-between finishing
Top Gun: Maverick (in 2020) and now, when Top Gun is finally being released,
meaning Kosinski has TWO exciting new movies out this summer. Based on The New
Yorker short story by George Saunders, Spiderhead is a genre-bending and darkly
funny psychological thriller. In the near future, convicts are offered the
chance to volunteer as medical subjects to shorten their sentence. One such
subject for a new drug capable of generating feelings of love begins questioning
the reality of his emotions. The cast features Chris Hemsworth, Miles Teller,
Jurnee Smollett, Mark Paguio, and Tess Haubrich. At first glance, this is seems
like a mash-up between Snowpiercer and A Cure for Wellness, with the patients
fighting back in this strange research facility. I'm in! Curious to find out
what's really happening… Drip on?

FIRST PROMO TRAILER FOR ALI ABBASI'S 'HOLY SPIDER' PREMIERING IN CANNES

By Alex Billington

"You'll witness… the invisible hand of God at work." Cinetic has revealed the
first festival promo trailer for a new film titled Holy Spider, which is
premiering at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival kicking off this week in France.
This is the latest film from an Iranian-Danish filmmaker named Ali Abbasi, who
earned acclaim for his excellent Swedish troll film Border that played at Cannes
a few years ago (you have to see it!). Holy Spider is playing in the Main
Competition this year, a big upgrade for Abassi and a chance at winning some
festival awards. A journalist descends into the dark underbelly of the Iranian
holy city of Mashhad as she investigates the serial killings of sex workers by
the so called "Spider Killer", who believes he is cleansing the streets of
sinners. The PR describes it as "gritty thriller" and it doesn't seem like there
are any supernatural twists. Holy Spider stars Zar Amir Ebrahimi and Mehdi
Bajestani. One of my most anticipated Cannes films this year - this looks damn
good. There are some touches of Memories of Murder in here. Take a look.

BEN WINCHELL LOOKS FOR MEANING IN LIFE IN 'THE ROAD TO GALENA' TRAILER

By Alex Billington

"Time passes and suddenly you realize, 'this is it.'" Vertical Entertainment has
revealed an official trailer for an indie film titled The Road to Galena, which
will be out to watch starting this July. The film is another of these "what if
you had everything, but you still felt something was missing?" kind of
existential dramas. Power lawyer Cole Baird has all the trappings of success,
but behind the façade, he’s crippled by a career he never wanted and a dream
left behind. He now has a choice to make: continue a life of emptiness or follow
the path to happiness back to his small, rural hometown. "A touching story of
one man's quiet desperation giving way to fulfillment; a story that motivates us
to travel our own roads toward a more meaningful life." The film stars Ben
Winchell as Cole, Will Brittain, Jay O. Sanders, Jill Hennessy, Alisa Allapach,
Jennifer Holliday, plus Margaret Colin, and Aimee Teegarden. Looks like a
wholesome story about coming to realize money isn't everything, and that a
simpler life might be better than one more glamorous.

OFFICIAL TRAILER FOR 'WHITE ELEPHANT' ACTION MOVIE WITH ROOKER & WILLIS

By Alex Billington

"Just get rid of them both, whatever the cost." Another day, another bad Bruce
Willis action movie. There's an official trailer available now for White
Elephant, the latest from the mindless action filmmaker Jesse V. Johnson (The
Debt Collector, Triple Threat, Avengement, The Mercenary, Debt Collectors, Hell
Hath No Fury). When an assassination attempt goes wrong, an ex-marine-turned-mob
enforcer is forced to set things right or face the wrath of his ruthless mob
boss. If that sounds like nearly every other boring action film recently, it's
because it is exactly that, and they're not doing much different besides just
shaking the bottle each time. Bruce Willis & Michael Rooker star, along with
Michael Rose, Olga Kurylenko, Vadhir Derbez, and John Malkovich. This looks so
bland and awful, please don't waste any of your time on this.
