FILMING :
Orginally planned to commence in June 2010, the filming was postponed several times either due to pending pre-production works and unavailibility of the artists.After Arya had finished shooting and dubbing for Avan Ivan, the first schedule was planned to begin on 2 March, which however, was also cancelled as Dhayanidhi wanted the filming to be pushed by another two months, which supposedly was the reason for Linguswamy's decision to produce the film himself. Shooting eventually started on 16 March 2011 in Karaikudi, with Madhavan, Arya, Sameera Reddy and Amala Paul participatingA song "Dumma Dumma Dummaa", choreographed by Brindha, was shot first, with nearly 2000 people being part of the shoot along with the four lead actors. A fight sequence, involving Arya and Madhavan, was shot in Pondicherry University sports complex on 24 April.In June 2011, other key action sequences were filmed at Madurai, Thoothukudi and Aruppukottai....

Synopsis :
 A retired spy-turned-full time homemaker attempts to stop a power mad super villain from taking over the planet, and gets some unexpected help from her disagreeable twin step-children in this fourth entry of writer/director Robert Rodriguez's family-friendly adventure series. It's been a long time since former OSS agent Marissa Cortez Wilson (Jessica Alba) went chasing bad guys. These days it's hard enough just to get her precocious step kids Rebecca (Rowan Blanchard) and Cecil (Mason Cook) to clean their rooms, and make sure her baby daughter has a full sippy cup. And despite the fact that Marissa's husband Wilber (Joel McHale) earns his income chasing spies on TV, he hasn't a clue that his mild-mannered wife was once a cloak-and-dagger woman. Now the nefarious Timekeeper (Jeremy Piven) has hatched a plot for world domination, prompting the OSS to summon Marissa back on active duty. When Rebecca and Cecil discover their stepmother's tightly-guarded secret, they realize they might be the only hope for getting her out of a tight jam, and foiling the Timekeeper's evil plan. Fortunately Carmen (Alexa Vega) and Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara) are more than willing to teach Rebecca and Cecil the tricks of the trade, and in no time the two bickering ten year olds are wielding hi-tech gadgets, and heading out on their first assignment.

Future Holds for "Harry Potter's" Youthful Cast :
While nearly every actor in England turned out for a role in the Harry Potter series, the majority of the film focused on a group of young, unknown actors. With a decade's worth of fantasy blockbusters under their belts and the final installment, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 exploding into theaters, here's a look at what’s in store for the soon-to-be Hogwarts graduates:

Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter)

The star of the Harry Potter series, Radcliffe is the actor most assured of future success. The twenty-two year old broke the typecasting boundary with his surprising turn in the play Eqqus in 2008, and is proving his Broadway chops again with his leading role in the Tony-winning How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. Radcliffe is already set to appear in some post-Potter films, including the upcoming supernatural thriller The Woman In Black, and indie comedy The Amateur Photographer. We’re not worried about Radcliffe succumbing to the Mark Hamill Curse, an actor who never quite took off post-Star Wars (although, he's certainly getting plenty of work as one of my favorite voice actors)..

 

Emma Watson (Hermione Granger)

The leading lady of the Potter films, Emma Watson has been keeping busy. The only member of the main trio to continue school, Watson has been attending Brown University in the US and acting part-time. The young actor is set to start filming The Perks of Being a Wallflower this summer, and will appear in My Week With Marilyn, due out this November. Watson has also parleyed her acting success into the world of fashion, partnering with Burbury in 2009 to model for their Autumn/Winter catalogue. She also worked as a creative advisor for a line of clothing with People Tree. It’s probable that Watson is on her way to becoming a fashion icon.

 

Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley)

Something of the dark horse of the trio, Rupert Grint hasn’t had as much success outside the world of Harry Potter as his co-stars. Still, the actor has had a number of roles in small independent films, including Cherrybomb, Wild Target and Driving Lessons. Grint is set to make his post-Potter premiere as the lead in Norwegian independent film Comrade, due out in 2012. We hope that the actor’s red-headed charisma will pull him through...

 

Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy)

Tom Felton may have made it big playing smug, jerk-face Draco Malfoy, but the actor actually came into the series with more experience than any of the other child actors. From the looks of it, he’s planning on maintaining that workload post-Potter --  he’s currently cast in five films in different stages of production. His next is this summer's Rise of the Planet of the Apes, in which he plays another Draco-like villain. We’re not sure yet if Felton has the charm to pull off a heroic lead on his own, but at the very least, there’s plenty of demand for sneering villains. At least, until that guy who plays Joffrey on Games of Thrones grows up and starts providing competition.

 

Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley)

                                         

Wright is one of the youngest of the Potter bunch, but she’s keeping up with the best of them. Currently a film student at the University of London, the former Weasley plans to continue acting. At the moment, Wright is filming the mind-bending thriller The Philosophers in Jakarta, and will appear in a short film in the upcoming Geography of the Hapless Heart. She has also followed in Emma Watson’s footsteps, gaining a reputation as a fashionista and taking part in Katie Eary’s show during London Fashion Week. Wright has one heck of a souveneer to take away from the Potter set- she’s currently engaged to co-star Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays the younger version of Grindelwald in the seventh and eighth films.

BIOGRAPHY
Stunning, smart and slightly insane, this Hollywood icon is known for romancing her costars, kissing her brother at the Oscars, exotic tattoos and commendable humanitarian efforts. The daughter of Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight, she first garnered attention as a high-school computer wiz in the film Hackers after which she married costar Jonny Lee Miller. Their marriage died in 1999 just when Jolie's career was heating up. She appeared in three films that year including the seriocomic Pushing Tin which introduced her to hubby No. 2, Billy Bob Thornton, and the mental-institution drama Girl, Interrupted, which earned her an Oscar. Subsequently, Jolie made a series of blockbusters (Lara Croft: Tomb Raider) and bombs (Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow), none of which made use of her considerable acting talents. After divorcing Thornton in 2003, Jolie devoted much of her time to working with refugees in impoverished countries and raising her adopted children. In 2005, around the time her action film Mr. & Mrs. Smith was released, rumors circulated that she and recently separated costar Brad Pitt were having an affair. Although they refused to confirm the relationship, they remained tabloid cover stars for months until Jolie finally admitted in early 2006 that she was pregnant with his child...

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Are Not Getting Married :

Update: So you know how we got all excited about Brangelina finally tying the knot...well evidently it's not going to happen any time soon, according to People anyways.  Multiple sources are claiming that the allegations that the longtime couple are walking down the aisle this summer are completely false, stating, "there is no evidence nor any single truth" to the matter.  So there you have it -- shortest engagement in celebrity history.  Maybe next time it will stick.

Earlier: We've long been asking...and they've finally answered! Us Weekly reports that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are officially planning for their wedding, and the event is set to take place within the next few months. Three different sources reportedly confirmed to the magazine that the nuptials were a go, and they all said the ceremony would probably take place at their renovated Chateau Miraval in Correns, France, and we are not to expect an over-the-top and extravagant union. Rather, it's more likely to be "intimate and informal."

In the past, Angelina and Brad have both said they wouldn't get married until gay marriage was legalized. And with the recent passing of the gay rights bill by the New York State Senate, it's probably no coincidence that there are rumors of them beginning to plan their big day. The couple have openly spoken about the additional pressure to tie the knot that they get from their children, and Brad even told USA Today in May that his children with Angelina were continually asking when their parents were going to get married: "[Marriage is] meaning more and more to them," he said. And seeing as how Angelina and Brad are incredibly outnumbered at home, it's kind of shocking they didn't pull a few strings to make the gay marriage bill pass sooner so they could get married and shut their kids up without reneging on their desire for social justice...

Fright Night 2011 : Film Review - never heard

The Bottom Line :

This decent remake of the ’80s vampire favorite should satiate horror fans...

The second release in two weeks (after Glee: The 3D Concert Movie) to do next to nothing with its 3D format, Fright Night is nonetheless a moderately amusing remake of the well-liked 1985 original about a teenager who discovers a vampire has moved in next door. A steady supply of spiky humor and a game cast keep this cooking most of the way, though the pacing could have been tighter and the film seems as if it’s about to end two or three times before it actually does. The Disney release from DreamWorks looks to scare up some tasty box office through the waning days of summer.

Director : Craig Gillespie

Screenwriter : Marti Noxon, from a story by Tom Holland, based on the film written by Holland


Cast : Anton Yelchin, Colin Farrell, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, David Tennant

 A steady supply of spiky humor and a game cast keep director Craig Gillespie’s film cooking most of the way, says THR film critic Todd McCarthy.

 Largely faithful to Tom Holland’s original film, right down to the names of the main characters, director Craig Gillespie (Lars and the Real Girl) and screenwriter Marti Noxon set the action in a godforsaken tract housing development outside Las Vegas, an effectively isolated location that also accommodates the change of the vampire-slayer character from an old Hollywood actor (played by Roddy McDowall 26 years ago) to the goth-garbed star of a gaudy Vegas act (a wonderfully vulgar David Tennant).

PHOTOS: 'Fright Night,' 'Twilight' and 'Nosferatu': The Evolution of Film Vampires
This time around, Anton Yelchin plays Charley Brewster, a good-looking high-schooler who has graduated from geekdom to date comely Amy (Imogen Poots) and warn his horny single mom (Toni Collette) to stay away from Jerry (Colin Farrell), their dramatically handsome new neighbor.

 “That’s a terrible vampire name, Jerry!” Charley objects to the ultra-dweeby Ed (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), but much as Charley wants to distance himself from his uncool old pal, he finally admits that Ed is correct in assigning blame for the disappearance of several students to the dietary preferences of the mysterious newcomer.

Fright Night repays its presumed debt to the Twilight franchise for getting remade by cracking jokes about it, and it even shares the same cinematographer, Javier Aguirresarobe, with The Twilight Saga: New Moon. Far removed from the strict dress code and sense of decorum associated with Bela Lugosi and his Old Europe brethren, Jerry is unquestionably a member of the new breed of vampires; he shows he’s buff in a tight T-shirt, consumes things other than blood (beer and apples, at least), doesn’t turn into a bat, keeps victims in torture rooms in his house and puts little effort into hiding his identity. After 300 years on Earth, he’s undoubtedly subdued greater foes than the teenage population of this forlorn outpost of humanity.

STORY: 'Fright Night:' Colin Farrell on Playing 'Sensual, Erotic' Vampire
Desperately seeking a way to kill off the increasingly threatening Jerry, Charley approaches the renowned Peter Vincent (Tennant), a behavioral cousin of Russell Brand’s character in Get Him to the Greek, whose Vegas Strip vampire-hunter act has seen better days. Vincent waves off the youngster’s claims of having found a real vampire, but the dissipated Brit does have the tools needed to turn Jerry to dust. None is quite as arresting as one makeshift weapon with which Charley’s mother at one point runs through Jerry — a Century 21 sign on a post. Talk about creative product placement.

All along, it seems that the film will contrive to have the vampire finally killed as part of Peter’s stage show; alas, this is not the case. Still, lots of good-looking teen characters (as well as a few others) receive punctured necks, some are happily resurrected from the purgatory of vampiredom and enough cheeky humor is dispensed to placate the horror-inclined.

VIDEO: 'Fright Night' Trailer Has Bite

Yelchin and Poots make for an attractive lead couple who are keen to lose their virginity but find constant distractions getting in their way. Farrell doesn’t have to work hard at it but is both charismatic and quite humorous as the irresistible and ever-resourceful bloodsucker. Seven or eight minutes could have been profitably trimmed from the second half, and the score didn’t need to pound home every shock.

Three-dimensional effects are limited to such silliness as blood and other fluids hurling toward the viewer and stakes and other pointy objects threatening to poke your eyes out.

Bulletin Review of "Conan The Barbarian"2011

The latest incarnation of Robert E. Howard's barbarian of prehistory stars Jason Momoa, Rachel Nichols, Stephen Lang and Rose McGorwan.

The new Conan the Barbarian may be the first film — and the first of many, one fears — to be aimed entirely at video gamers. The filmmakers throw story and character to the wind to send an avatar into a field of continual battle to slay enemies coming from all sides. Every rip of his sword sends a fountain of blood into the air and every gouge, punch and back flip comes with amplified sound effects.

Screenwriters : Marcus Nispel


Thomas Dean Donnelly, Joshua Oppenheimer, Sean Hood
Cast

Jason Momoa, Rachel Nichols, Stephen Lang, Rose McGowan

 STORY: 'Conan the Barbarian' Director Reveals How Reboot Will Differ From Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic
Whether this version will attract gamers and young men of a generation who think Conan is a skinny, redheaded late-night talk show host is open to question. Certainly the look of the film, shot in locations throughout Bulgaria and in Nu Boyana Studios, is dramatic with sweeping landscapes improved digitally to resemble an angry, sensual time in pre-Christian Europe where dark magic rules and brutal warriors kill with impunity. But how long can you gaze at a landscape empty of story and character?

Replacing Arnold Schwarzenegger as the original Barbarian is Jason Momoa (HBO’s Game of Thrones), a Hawaiian-born hulk with ripped muscles and absurd good looks. He certainly fits the part. For that matter, all the casting works in visual terms.

Rachel Nichols is lovely and feisty as a temple princess who fights by Conan’s side. Stephen Lang personifies badass evil as Conan’s chief opponent while Rose McGowan’s snakelike witch is pure villainy.

VIDEO: Conan the Barbarian Fights Bloody Battle in Movie's First Scene

Chiseled Nonso Anozie looks rocklike as Conan’s staunch compatriot while Ron Perlman, dressed and coiffed to resemble ancient statutes of the Greek god Zeus, plays Conan’s warrior father.

Alas, blunt-force acting rules the screen with everyone grunting, snarling and posturing to ludicrous effect. Dialogue is at a premium as this impedes the killing game. Indeed, at one point when Nichols character threatens to get chatty, Momoa stuffs a rag in her mouth.

The only actors who actually make an impact is Nichols, who displays just enough nervy grit to stand out, and 13-year-old Leo Howard, a first-degree black belt who plays young Conan as a feral animal ever looking for prey.

The story? Oh, the screenplay by Thomas Dean Donnelly, Joshua Oppenheimer and Sean Hood concerns something about a search for scattered pieces of the powerful Mask of Acheron and then a search for a “pure blood” descendant of sorcerers whose blood will awaken the mask. The movie wastes no more time explaining all this then it took you to read that sentence. These are mere excuses to get characters from point A to points B and C.

VIDEO: 'Conan the Barbarian': New Red-Band Trailer Released

To give the movie its due, those locations are astutely fabricated by production designer Chris August and cinematographer Thomas Kloss with a considerable assist from CGI artists. Indeed the movie’s best moments come in long shots or sweeping camera passes over each new location with an accompanying super identifying the name and purpose of this new site.

(The one labeled “City of Thieves” causes one to wonder if this means that an honest man would be an outlaw in this metropolis. Your mind does wander while watching this film.)

And again to give the film credit, the action is cleverly designed so that Conan — he of the “I live, I love, I slay, I am content” mantra — performs his slash-and-gouge routine, which could grow tiresome, in dramatically different situations. One involving sand warriors springing out of dust to bedevil Conan is particularly ingenious although it goes on too long. That’s true for all the fights though especially the extended battles between Conan and Lang’s Khalar Zym, where the filmmakers must invent obstacles to keep Conan from dispatching his foe too soon.

The choreographer of this controlled mayhem is German-born director Marcus Nispel, who seems to have developed a career as a remaker of other people’s movies, having directed new versions of Friday the 13th, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre andFrankenstein. His imposes no personal vision on Conan, however, no Milius-like perspective or visual design.

There is no purpose to the film other than random blood splattering amid scenes of bondage, primitive savagery and S&M eroticism. The film is numbing and dumb with its hero indistinguishable from its villains. Conan fights under no moral code nor stands for any principle. If the film were called Khalar Zym, he wouldn’t even be the good guy.
