May 21, 2012 0

To be honest, there is no other director out there today that gets me more excited to see their films than P.T. Anderson. It has been 5 very long years since his last film There Will Be Blood, which many including ourselves considered an instant masterpiece. Today the first teaser clip of his latest work entitled The Master has been released.

Moneyball is a film based on the book of the same name that was directed by Bennett Miller about a small market baseball team that found an innovative way of evaluating players. Co-written by the talented Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network), the film is a true story about how Billy Beane used unconventional thinking to focus on buying wins instead players.

George Clooney directs and stars in his latest film, The Ides of March, which focuses on people involved in American politics and the scandals that often come with them. The film also shows how people evolve in politics from a passionate driven nobody who legitimately believes in what they are doing to a position climber who only cares about gaining power. These are all things most already know so you are not likely to walk away with anything new but thanks to the excellent cast giving strong performances it is not a deal breaker.

Philip Seymour Hoffman stars in his directorial debut in Jack Goes Boating, a film that is adapted from his acclaimed Off Broadway play. Considering Philip Seymour Hoffman is one my favorite present-time actors, keeping my expectations for the film in-check was troublesome if not impossible. Still, I try to give an unbiased review of this indie film, which I confess was not easy.

Soon as I heard that Philip Seymour Hoffman was in a lead role in a new movie I immediately got excited. Unfortunately, when you hype up a movie too much it must live up to high expectations which most of the time result in disappointment, which is how I felt at the end of this movie. But don’t get me wrong, Doubt is a good film, just don’t hype it up too much.
