Michael Bay’s Thrilling Yet Emotional Parkour Doc ‘We Are Storror’ Receives Howling Standing Ovation at SXSW

Michael Bay’s Thrilling Yet Emotional Parkour Doc ‘We Are Storror’ Receives Howling Standing Ovation at SXSW

News
By Emily Longeretta According To The variety Michael Bay‘s “We Are Storror” begins with a warning on screen: “Don’t attempt anything you see here.” It’s safe to say the audience at SXSW, the first to see the documentary on a big screen on March 8, was extremely impressed and a little bit scared, but definitely not jumping to attempt any of the wild stunts front and center in the documentary, which follows parkour team Storror. Instead of wires, green screens and editing tricks that Bay fans are used to, this time, it’s all real. Making his debut as a feature documentary director at the film and television festival, Bay received a loud applause — and audience members chanting his name — when introducing the movie. During the screening, the audience squirmed in their ...
Box Office: ‘Mickey 17’ Freezes Up With Chilly $7.7 Million Opening Day

Box Office: ‘Mickey 17’ Freezes Up With Chilly $7.7 Million Opening Day

News
By J. Kim Murphy According To The variety Bong Joon Ho‘s “Mickey 17,” the first of Warner Bros.‘ eclectic, pricey 2025 slate of original films from name-brand directors like Ryan Coogler and Paul Thomas Anderson, isn’t getting the warmest arrival at the box office. The sci-fi comedy, starring Robert Pattinson as a pair of interstellar doppelgangers, earned $7.7 million across Friday and preview screenings from 3,807 locations. That kick-off puts “Mickey 17” on pace to land within projections for an opening weekend north of $18 million. Whether or not it can fulfill that forecast though, it’s going to be a slow start for a film sporting a $118 million production budget. Add in marketing and distribution costs and the Warner Bros. release will likely struggle to enter pr...
The True Beauty of Being Bitten by a Tick’ Review: A DIY Wellness Satire Steeped in Thuddingly Obvious Metaphors

The True Beauty of Being Bitten by a Tick’ Review: A DIY Wellness Satire Steeped in Thuddingly Obvious Metaphors

News
By Siddhant Adlakha According To The variety Wellness culture takes sinister form in “The True Beauty of Being Bitten by a Tick,” a horror-adjacent domestic drama that can’t quite sustain its tongue-in-cheek delights. Directed by Pete Ohs (“Jethica”), and co-written by Ohs and his four lead actors, the ultra-indie SXSW discovery’s wry tone is accompanied by strange characters and even stranger sound design, and yields a wildly enjoyable initial half. However, like its grieving lead character lost in her millennial malaise, it loses itself down a rabbit hole of metaphors.  After Yvonne (Zoë Chao) experiences a personal tragedy — the surprising details of which are hinted at over a phone call, before gradually coming to light — she drives to the isolated, woodl...
Another Simple Favor’ Review: At SXSW, Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively Return for a Sequel That Has More Twists and Less Fun

Another Simple Favor’ Review: At SXSW, Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively Return for a Sequel That Has More Twists and Less Fun

News
By Owen Gleiberman According To The variety Like a cocktail made of ingredients that aren’t meant to go together, but that stimulate your taste buds in a just sweet-and-tart, gin-and-blood-orange enough way that you keep sipping it, “A Simple Favor” was a movie powered by its singular flavor. It started off as a bad-moms soap opera, with Anna Kendrick’s polite, perky, less-innocent-than-she-seemed Stephanie, a widowed mother who ran her own homemaking vlog, getting drawn into the web of Emily, a fellow grade-school parent who was about as maternal as Cruella de Vil, and who was played by Blake Lively in a performance of supremely entertaining nastiness. As these two bonded over martinis and shared secrets (including the revelation that one of them was a “brother f...

Blake Lively Speaks in Public for First Time Since Justin Baldoni Controversy at ‘Another Simple Favor’ SXSW Premiere

News
By Selome Hailu         According To The variety At the South by Southwest premiere of “Another Simple Favor,” Blake Lively spoke in public for the first time since her legal battle with Justin Baldoni began in December. “I love this character so much. It’s probably my favorite character I’ve ever been fortunate enough to play,” she said onstage at Austin’s Paramount Theater after the screening. “So when Paul asked us to come back, I was so excited.” Though no one referenced the Baldoni controversy directly, support for Lively among her collaborators was clear. On the red carpet before the premiere, director Paul Feig told Variety that she is “the most amazing collaborator,” adding that “every movie star has opinions about what they’re doing. I haven’t wor...

James Cameron Champions Zoe Saldaña’s Oscar Win: The ‘Avatar’ Family Has Always Known Her to Be a ‘World-Class Performer’

News
By Zack Sharf According To The variety Zoe Saldaña is an Oscar winner, and James Cameron is over the moon. The “Avatar” director shared his reaction to his leading lady’s victory by telling Variety: “I was so happy to see Zoe acknowledged as the world-class performer we, in the ‘Avatar’ family, have always known her to be. Her acceptance speech was a noble reminder of what immigrant families bring to the U.S. and to Hollywood.” In her Oscars speech, Saldaña proudly referred to herself as the “proud child of immigrant parents” while revealing she had become the first American of Dominican decent to win an Academy Award. “And I know I will not be the last. I hope,” she added. “The fact that I’m getting an award for a role where I got to sing and speak in Spanish ...

Millie Bobby Brown Slams Press for ‘Dissecting My Face,’ Calls Out Writers for ‘Disturbing’ Articles About Her Body: ‘This Is Bullying… I Will Not Be Shamed’

News
By Zack Sharf According To The variety Millie Bobby Brown has posted a video on Instagram in which she condemns the press for “bullying” her over her changing physical appearance. The “Stranger Things” star called out specific articles and writers for their “disturbing” coverage that is devoted to “dissecting my face, my body, my choices.” “I started in this industry when I was 10 years old,” Brown wrote in the caption to the video. “I grew up in front of the world, and for some reason, people can’t seem to grow with me. Instead, they act like I’m supposed to stay frozen in time, like I should still look the way I did on ‘Stranger Things’ Season 1. And because I don’t, I’m now a target.” Brown blasted “the people who are so desperate to tear young women down” and went on to n...
