Formosa Betrayed Synopsis:
In the early 1980s, an FBI Agent is assigned to investigate the murder of a respected professor. Through his investigation, he unearths a spider web of international secrets that has been thriving within college campuses across America for decades. His investigation takes him across the Pacific to the island nation of Taiwan, where with the help of the outspoken widow and an unlikely spy, he learns that the Professor's killing was not a random act, but a desperate move by a scandalous government intent on keeping its nefarious activities under wraps. Our detective soon finds himself on a collision course against the U.S. State Department, the Chinese Mafia, and the Nationalist Chinese Government - in a land where the truth is not what it seems and the only people he can trust, cannot be trusted at all.
Formosa Betrayed Summary:
Inspired by actual events, FORMOSA BETRAYED tells the story of FBI Agent Jake Kelly's (James Van Der Beek) investigation of the brutal murder of a Taiwanese-American professor on U.S. soil. With the help of his FBI partner Tom Braxton (John Heard) and a sharp Chicago police detective (Leslie Hope), Agent Kelly discovers that the murderers have fled to Taiwan.
Agent Kelly is sent overseas to assist the Taiwanese government’s search for the suspected murderers. Initially guided by an American diplomat (Wendy Crewson) and a Taiwanese official (Tzi Ma), Kelly soon realizes that not only is he an unwelcome guest in a foreign land, but that something even more treacherous is happening beneath the surface.
With the help of Ming (Will Tiao), a Taiwanese activist, Agent Kelly discovers the unsettling truth about the island once called Formosa, leading to dangerous and painful consequences. Agent Kelly finds himself on a collision course with the U.S. State Department, the Chinese Mafia, and ultimately the highest levels of the Republic of China government in Taiwan, where this FBI agent discovers how a complex web of politics, identity, and power affects the lives and destinies of the citizens in all three countries – including his own.
FORMOSA BETRAYED is directed and produced by Adam Kane along with producer and writer Will Tiao
Formosa Betrayed Reviews:
Formosa Betrayed is a clever little exercise in perfactorated tension. It's gritty and explosive, and represents a true throwback to the crime dramas of the 70s. A time when story and structure actually mattered. It's the kind of project most big studios doesn't want to touch anymore. Which might account for Adam Kane's less than vibrant directorial aesthetic. This isn't a glossy film by any means. Its dark and damp, stamped with the aura of a mid-00s movie of the week. Charlie Stratton's script lifts it from this moldering pot of mediocrity, and it's the lead performance by James Van Der Beek that elevates it and sells that conceit home. While Formosa Betrayed teeters on the edge of being video store back shelf fodder, it has more than enough going for it to make it a worthwhile cinematic pursuit.
Van Der Beek is experiencing a career rebirth at the moment. For a while, he looked like another lost teen actor that wouldn't ever be able to get the kind of work a man of his prowess deserves. While Joshua Jackson, Katie Holmes, and Michelle Williams all found their post-Dawson's Creek niche, it took a couple of seconds for Van Der Beek to find his proper footing. Despite captivating performances in The Rules of Attraction and the hardly seen Final Draft, which proved the thespian to be above the stated caricature he once played on that old WB drama, he had trouble securing high profile projects. That should soon change with this particular film, as well as his upcoming appearance in the Anders Anderson drama Stolen Lives and his recurring role on the TV drama Mercy. Here, James stars as Jake Kelly, an FBI Agent in charge of investigating the murder of a Korean college professor on American soil. It's certainly a more grown-up character for the actor. And he proves himself quite capable of holding his own on screen.
Formosa Betrayed is based on a true story. It takes place in 1983, and revolves around the execution of an economics teacher accused of having ties to the mob. The first five minutes throw us into direct gunfire as Kelly tries to make his way through an airport luggage claim in Taipei with a local terrorist named Ming. The FBI agent is trying to have the man extradited to the U.S., but the Taiwanese government isn't feeling it. Faced with being arrest himself, Kelly is taken to a holding center, where he is questioned by Susan Kane (Wendy Crewson), the American liaison in charge of chauffeuring the agent around town. Director Adam Kane uses this set-up as his story's telling template. In a series of flashbacks, and flashbacks within flashbacks, we come to understand the journey Agent Kelly has been on, and what it's taken to get him here, to this foreign airport.
Van Der Beek plays the FBI agent as a patriot. An upstanding member of the community who only wants to do right by his country. The death of Dr. Henry Wen isn't an immediate concern to his ideologies as an investigator. Its just another body murdered, and he wants to capture the killer. This gung-ho attitude gets him sent to Taipei, where he is met with resistance from the local government. Conspiracies seem to be afoot. And Kelly, struggle as he might, is continuously kept in the dark. Some believe Wen is a mobster, and clues found near the body indicate this to be true. But it doesn't quite add up in Kelly's mind. Something fishy is going on here. Could it really be that the government killed Wen for speaking out against Taiwan during his course studies?
We're kept at Kelly's eye level for the first hour. The director has us as confused and angry as our hero. We are plunged into this cruel world perched on Van Der Beek's shoulder as he travels deeper and deeper into this suspected cover-up. Before long, Kelly is witnessing things he shouldn't be. Such as the killing of an important witness by the local police force, and gassing riot at a seemingly innocent protest. As the events escalate, Van Der Beek's search for the truth becomes even more urgent. The pacing is swift and methodical, and our lead's motive is clearly defined by the third act. As a political thriller, its narrative is concrete. Though its lower budget does hamper its appeal somewhat.
Midway through the film, we get a Taiwanese history lesson. It's obvious that this information is incongruent to the ongoing events of the mystery being presented to us. Everything is told to Kelly in textbook style. We're meant to soak in this information, too. Which means paying attention. There isn't a real pay-off in regards to what we learn, but it offers a better insight and understanding into the importance of Kelly's actions. And it's presented in a non-boring way. As we learn the implications involved with the murder of the professor, its obvious that we're watching something a little headier than your typical Friday Night thriller. This goes a lot deeper than that.
Before things come to their inevitable conclusion, James Kelly takes on the Taiwanese government headfirst. James Van Der Beek is quite convincing as an upholder of justice. He's likable, but he has an undeniable edge that transcends the material. Formosa Betrayed is one of the best thrillers of the year thus far, and while it might be a little hard to find in the theater, it's definitely worth seeking out. Whoop-doo!

Toe to Toe Movie Synopsis:
At a politically correct prep school in Washington DC two girls -one black, one white- go toe to toe. Jesse is a privileged but troubled white girl whose slutty tendencies pull her towards self-destructive behavior. Tosha is a fiercely determined African-American from Anacostia, one of DC's most impoverished areas. Both new seniors and star players on their school’s lacrosse team, the two girls click despite their differences. Their fledgling friendship begins to falter when they discover their shared interest in Rashid, a dashing Lebanese deejay.
Things unravel further when Tosha and Jesse have a shoving match on the lacrosse field and racist graffiti appears on Tosha’s locker soon after. Jesse is expelled from school and spirals deeper into self-destructive behavior. Surprisingly, it is Tosha who comes to her rescue. Jesse then returns the favor by sacrificing her own well being for that of Tosha’s. And so the two girls, once mired in mutual hatred, become each other’s salvation
Toe to Toe Movie Reviews:
Emily Abt captures 'high school drama bullshit' in a bottle and shakes it into an active, blurring look at life as a modern day teenager.
Having spent time with a couple of teenagers in the past week, it's hard to watch Emily Abt's latest high school treaties and not notice the glaring absence of texting. That's all the kids do nowadays. They sit and chatter away with harangued key strokes that barely make readable words. The sex scenes should be bookend by copious amounts of finger thumping, but that doesn't necessarily make for a compelling watch. Still, it seems that Abt is reaching for a modern day reality in her quest to educate and entertain with this entertaining drama. In this day and age, it's hard to find kids that aren't glue to their cell phones. The challenge is working in the device while still making the characters compelling and relatable. That may be hard, as the more text-prone a high schooler seems to be, the less interesting and dumbfounded they are as a person. Drama doesn't drip from this conceit in a moderate tone.
One cell phone does come into play early on in Toe to Toe. Our main heroine has been quite promiscuous in her after school activities. And she's been photo tagged as a nympho. Her leg is up in the air. She lays drunk, on a couch, her tits hanging out in morbid fashion. These images have been sent to spin in the shameless recesses of the Internet forever. The girl has a social problem. Her father is mysteriously absent. In fact, he's never mentioned once in the entire duration of the running time. Her mother is constantly away on business trips. Jesse lives in a giant modern house. She is well off and looked after by a nanny named Fatima. Louisa Krause plays her perfectly as a misunderstood girl not quite sure how to handle her own brimming sexuality. She gives it away for free, to any takers. And because of that, she's widely known as the school slut. That hasn't slowed her down on the lacrosse field, though. There, she is a free spirit, capable of driving her many demons into the deep blue sky.
It's on this field of dreams that she meets fellow lacrosse enthusiast Tosha (Soneuqa Martin), a young woman from the projects trying to make something of herself at their private boarding school. Though she is poor, she excels at math, is very organized, and definitely heading towards a scholarship at one of the big ten schools. She is tormented by the neighborhood bully bitches on her long walks home. And she plays lacrosse because the other black kids don't. She is intelligent and beautiful, yet seemingly trapped by the squalor of her surroundings. We first meet her on the field, stick near her face, chanting, "Black bitch. Black bitch. Black bitch." She's not particularly good. But her and Jesse are the only new players picked for the team.
Though kindred spirits, Jesse and Tosha seem like an odd pair. Not because of their skin color, but because of their attitudes. They are the literal version of yin and yang. Both visually and mental. One has it all and is throwing everything else away. The other has nothing and is striving for the stars. The two actresses settle into a nice rhythm, and the film skips at an interesting pace. Toe to Toe is set up as a tale of friendship, but it turns ugly fast. And we don't see it coming. Jesse is a sycophant. Soon, she is trying to pull from the lesser aspects of Tosha's life for her own selfish gain. When a boy comes into the picture, Jesse is quick to lure his attentions away from Tosha. Her behavior is nothing short of disturbing to all those around her.

The Art of the Steal Synopsis:
A thrilling documentary whodunit, "The Art of the Steal" chronicles the long, politically charged struggle for control of the Barnes Foundation, the greatest collection ever assembled of Post-Impressionist and early Modern art.
In 1922, Dr. Albert C. Barnes, a rags-to-riches industrialist and visionary art collector, established an educational institution based on his vast, unparalleled collection of masterworks by the likes of Van Gogh, Picasso, Cezanne, Renoir, and Matisse. A true iconoclast, Barnes pointedly ran the Barnes Foundation as a school and not a museum, arranged the art according to his own sensibility, and housed it in the leafy suburbs of Philadelphia, distancing himself from the city and cultural elite that he despised.Those who'd scorned his collection as consisting of "horrible, debased art," later coveted and schemed to control it. After Dr. Barnes died in 1951, his foundation was bequeathed to Lincoln University, a small African-American college, with strict instructions for leaving his school and his collection untouched. More than fifty years later, a powerful group of moneyed interests have plotted to relocate the art to a new museum in Philadelphia. With the Governor, the Mayor, and several of the country's most powerful charitable organizations on the verge of moving the Barnes, a loyal group of former students have gone to court to stop them. Will the students succeed in their David vs. Goliath campaign, or will a man's will be broken and one of America's greatest cultural monuments be destroyed?
A fascinating and thought-provoking investigation into the collision of art and commerce, "The Art of the Steal" weaves together archival and dramatic new footage with candid interviews from all sides of the hotly contested debate. Philadelphia-based Argott ("Rock School") takes the viewer into the back rooms of corporations and government, where decisions over the fate of our cultural institutions are enshrouded in secrecy and tangled in strategic red tape, and into the still-standing institute, whose days as a one-of-a-kind art haven may be numbered. "The Art of the Steal" is a bold, impassioned film that is destined to court controversy and inspire vital, timely discussions about the fate of our cultural legacy. Whose art is it anyway?

Date Night Previews:
Claire and Phil Foster are a suburban couple slogging through their daily lives and marriage. Even their ‘date nights’ of dinner and a movie have become routine. To reignite the marital spark, they visit a trendy Manhattan bistro, where a case of mistaken identity hurtles them through the city at breakneck speeds, into non-stop adventure. Remembering what made them so special together, Phil and Claire take on a couple of corrupt cops, a top-level mobster and a crazed cabbie as their date becomes a night they’ll never forget.
Date Night News:
You see them both on NBC's Thursday night comedy lineup. Pretty soon you'll see them both on the big screen together.
NBC comedy stalwarts Steve Carell and Tina Fey are set to hit movie screens next year on the upcoming comedy Date Night. The two, who play nutty manager Michael Scott on The Office and equally crazy head writer Liz Lemon on 30 Rock respectively, will appear as a married couple on their first movie together.
"It is a Thursday night wet dream, Date Night," says director Shawn Levy.
He adds that the project, which hits theaters in April, is not a simple vanity project. "Any great comedic star does punch up on the script and does daily punch up on the script via improvisation. So, with Tina and Steve, both of whom are writers, we forget Steve wrote 40-Year-Old Virgin with Judd Apatow."
Date Night follows the Fosters, who find their routine date night becomes much more than just dinner and a movie, when they get involved in some sort of syndicate. It is not a romcom, we can tell you that much, although it's very funny. Catch the trailer here.

Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa Tamil Film Synopsis :
The Story : Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa is a love story about two grown up people. Karthik(Simbu) and Jessie(Trisha)meet each other, one unassuing evening.....And it's love at first sight, for Karthik.
Not having seen a beauty such as Jessie in years passed by, Karthik is love struck, dumbstruck, and spellbound...all at once. Jessie is the next door, in the typical sence. Secretive glance make way to obvious glance and the two get acquainted sooner or later. What begins with an unexpected friendship breaks boundaries to take shape as Love.
Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa Kollywood Movie Review :
Gautam Vasudev Menon's "Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya" is a clean romantic story without any deviation or sub-plots. While he succeeds in telling the love story in a pleasing manner, he fails to present the lead pair's separation convincingly.
The film is about Karthik (Simbu), an engineering graduate, who yearns to become a director and falls for beautiful Jesse (Trisha), the daughter of his landlord. Karthik tails Jesse for days before revealing his love for her.
Though Jesse likes him, she tells him that her family is dead against love and advises him to treat her just as a friend. And Karthik agrees.
Then at one point of time Jesse realises that she too loves Karthik and tells him so. But at the same time, she is still apprehensive about her father and decides to bury her feelings for Karthik for her family's sake.
Jesse's father fixes her marriage to a person of his choice. Jesse, who accepts it initially, ends up calling off the wedding as she cannot forgo her love for Karthik. But she isn't ready to elope with Karthik either as she doesn't want to hurt her father.
The film drags on with the waiting game - nothing much happens except for the lovers meeting each other. Meanwhile, Karthik gets a chance to work as an assistant director and Jesse suddenly decides that their relationship won't work and she leaves Karthik.
What happens to the lovers and their love forms the rest of the story that culminates in an interesting but poorly executed twist.
Menon has presented the lead pair's relationship in a lovable manner. The dialogues are sharp and sensitive as well.
The way Simbu acts out his love for the heroine is charming and the ambiguous reactions from Trisha are nice.
The problem with the film is that it tries to bank heavily on style than substance. The reason and provocation for the separation are far from convincing. The screenplay falls flat when Jesse decides to put an end to the affair for almost no valid reason.
A.R. Rahman's music is a class apart. The title song and the 'Omanapennae' song are very good. The background score is top notch. Manoj's cinematography is spectacular and Nalini Sriram's costumes for Trisha are fabulous.

Defendor English Film Synopsis :
A superhero dramedy centered around three characters: an everyday guy who comes to believe he's a superhero, his psychiatrist, and the teenager he befriends.A crooked cop, a mob boss and the young girl they abuse are the denizens of a city's criminal underworld.

With no power other than courage Defendor takes to the streets to protect the city's innocents.
Defendor Hollywood Movie Review :
Given the recent onslaught of superhero films hitting theatres, it would seem only natural to anticipate parodic responses to the genre, sending up its excesses and sillier elements. On the surface, it would appear that debut director Peter Stebbings' Defendor is exactly such a film, casting Woody Harrelson's oddball everyman as a surrogate crimefighter and exploiting his antics for humour in the vein of 1999's Mystery Men. And initially this is the approach the film itself appears gearing up to take, opening with a hysterical spoofing of overblown superhero film clichés, including rooftop billowing fog, high contrast city lights against nighttime darkness, and larger than life acrobatic feats ("always check the garbage days" moans a wounded Defendor after leaping off a rooftop into a dumpster recently emptied of garbage to cushion his fall). Such astute genre awareness combined with the wonderfully imaginative collection of Defendor's makeshift crimefighting weapons (including the most inspired use of marbles seen in ages) could easily have assured for an hour and a half of lighthearted, enjoyable cinematic fun.
But Stebbings' film has grander ambitions than a mere surface level parody, which subtly unfold as the film progresses. As the laughs slowly become fewer and fewer, Defendor's narrative becomes steadily more engrossing, settling on a tone pitched halfway between exhilarating crime/mystery thriller and poignant character study, as the viewer is led increasingly to question Defendor's mental stability, and even the ethics of his imbalanced war against injustice. While such transitioning between tones could prove a dangerous stumbling ground, Stebbings is careful to distinguish between his darker themes and moments of levity, utilizing dashes of all too real violence to savagely undercut the fantasy or parodic elements. For all Defendor's silliness, it certainly packs a brutal punch when necessary.

Romulus My Father Movie Plot:
This story is based on Raimond Gaita's critically acclaimed memoir about Romulus, his beautiful wife Christina, and their struggle in the face of great adversity to bring up their son, Raimond. It is the tale of a boy trying to balance a universe described by his deeply moral father, against the experience of heartbreaking absence and neglect from a depressive mother. It is, ultimately, a story of impossible love that celebrates the unbreakable bond between father and son.
Romulus My Father Movie Reviews:
Who wants to watch a touching movie like this? Everybody, I hope!
Eric Bana as Romulus aka the father is absolutely brilliant in his performance. The haggard look of a kind father with a big heart is fleshed out perfectly by Bana. However, the scene-stealer award goes to little Kodi Smit-McPhee, who played Raimond. Yes, he's a little actor with a big talent! His performance stands on par with Bana's and I'm sure the writer must have been proud that this kid played him for the role. The mother aka Christina is played by Franka Potente with beautiful precision, making the role entirely hers. The rest of the cast are also convincing.
Cinematography work is commendable. It's bold and the application of close-ups and wide angles with strong contrasts effectively invites feel for the drama. Most of the scenery in the movie will amaze you. The outskirt area in Bendigo, Victoria, Australia dominates most of the scenes, fitting the story well.
One goof in "Romulus, My Father" is the constant changes in the wounds, black eyes and cuts on Christina's face with different scenes. Nonetheless, at a glance, the audience would not catch this, just as director Richard Roxburgh didn't. Oh it's no biggie. Perhaps what is more worrying is that this movie might cause a little boredom to those who don't follow dramas or indie flicks too well.
All in all, "Romulus, My Father" is a simple story with a great narration that would touch anybody's heart. You could watch it just for the great scenery! It's not everyday you get a tasteful drama to stir your soul and conscience.
Absolutely a classy artwork not to be missed!

Clash of the Titans (Remake, 2010) Movie Synopsis:
The ultimate struggle for power pits men against kings and kings against gods. But the war between the gods themselves could destroy the world. Born of a god but raised as a man, Perseus is helpless to save his family from Hades, vengeful god of the underworld. With nothing left to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to defeat Hades before he can seize power from Zeus and unleash hell on earth. Leading a daring band of warriors, Perseus sets off on a perilous journey deep into forbidden worlds. Battling unholy demons and fearsome beasts, he will only survive if he can accept his power as a god, defy his fate and create his own destiny.
“He’s just your golden hero that you’re meant to follow,” says Worthington of the old Perseus. “I feel when my Perseus starts out, he should be this bombastic tank. The gods have killed his family. He’s Charles Bronson! He’s gonna go for revenge, and the best way to achieve that is to kill the Kraken. Well, to kill the Kraken you gotta kill Medusa. To get to Medusa, you gotta take on the witches. Then once he kills the Kraken, he’s gonna kill fuckin’ Hades and Zeus and everybody else! But along the way he needs to learn to calm down, ask for help. And out of that comes the true hero. A hero isn’t someone who leads men; a hero is someone that’s in the trench with the men.”

Clash of the Titans Preview:
Whoa! Here’s the second (but first full) trailer for Louis Leterrier’s “Clash of the Titans” that goes the same pulse-pounding music route as the teaser but packs on the action something fierce for a full two minutes. This is apparently not an official trailer release, so the studio is pulling them pretty fast over on YouTube and elsewhere, but I did find a couple of versions that were still online. Check it out below. And really, any movie that shares my Alexa Davalos tied up fantasies can’t all be bad.
Starring Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes, Danny Huston, Gemma Arterton, Mads Mikkelsen, Jason Flemyng, Alexa Davalos and Izabella Miko. The Gods show off their dickish side March 26th, 2010.
That’s how they say it in olden Greek days, right? Thrice? For three? Man, all those Greek history classes in college are really paying off now! Anyways, three new posters for Louis Leterrier’s upcoming “Clash of the Titans” remake courtesy of Yahoo! Movies. Starring Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes, Gemma Arterton, Alexa Davalos, Danny Huston, Jason Flemyng, Mads Mikkelsen, Izabella Miko, Tamer Hassan, Hans Matheson, and directed by Leterrier. The clashing starts up March 26, 2010.
Empire Online has Sam Worthington in his “Clash of the Titans” remake wardrobe on their cover this month. Inside, there is an article on the movie and interview with the star, in which Worthington proclaims, “we’re not in fuckin’ Harryhausen mode anymore”, which, er, is definitely going to rub some Ray Harryhausen fans the wrong way. Empire tries their best to save the Aussie from fanboy outrage, but you decide if they succeeded.
