I love watching films at the cinema, on Netflix, Amazon Video and my extensive Blu Ray and DVD collection, not forgetting Sky Cinema and then blogging about them! I also attend the theatre a lot and review all the shows I am lucky enough to see!

News: Zeta-Jones Treated For Sinus Problems

Awww poor Catzy !!!

Welsh beauty Catherine Zeta-Jones has been nursing her husband Michael Douglas back to health – while making daily trips to the hospital for her own ailments.

Douglas recently underwent knee replacement surgery, and Zeta-Jones has been taking care of him while he recovers at their Bermuda home.

And the Entrapment star has nothing but praise for the staff at their local hospital on the tropical island, who have been helping her with sinus problems for the last four weeks.

She says, “I have been at the hospital for so many days with my sinus problems and I must say they have done a good job. I’m telling you, I have been there every day for the last four weeks, but now I feel fine.”

Hanks Defends Angels & Demons Against Catholic Criticism

I bet Tom was ready for some criticism after all of the stuff surrounding The Da Vinci Code.

Hollywood star Tom Hanks is baffled by the criticism his new film Angels & Demons has attracted from leading Roman Catholics – because he insists there is “nothing sacrilegious” about the murder mystery.

The actor plays Harvard symbologist Dr. Robert Langdon in the big screen adaptation of author Dan Brown’s book, about the murder of a physicist and a terrorist act against the Vatican by a secret brotherhood.

The movie is a prequel to 2006’s The Da Vinci Code, based on another of Brown’s hit books, which came under fire from Catholic leaders who claimed the film attacked the core beliefs of their faith.

Angels & Demons has been met with similar criticism before it is even released – but Hanks is adamant there is nothing offensive about the film.

He tells the New York Daily News, “People will see there’s nothing sacrilegious about it at all. Yes, we had a few things go on that are completely fictionalised; but there’s no reason to have a big hurly-burly over what is essentially a whodunit (murder mystery).

“There’s no major theological discussion that goes on, other than science versus faith. There’s no winner in that argument. I just solve the murder.”

Angels & Demons is set to hit cinemas later this month.

News: Foster To Direct Carrey?

For some reason I really like the sound of this . . . random I know.

Funnyman Jim Carrey could soon be taking orders from Jodie Foster – the actress is in talks to direct his new film The Beaver.

The movie, written by Kyle Killen, is about a man who becomes reliant on his beaver hand puppet for company.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Steve Carrell, who was previously linked to the leading role, looks set to be replaced by Carrey and Foster is in negotiations to helm the project.

News: Pattinson Acting Dilemma Shaped New Film Role

Thats cool that he can take real life experiences into his acting.

Robert Pattinson had no problems playing a man experiencing an identity crisis in his new film – he suffered severe teenage angst before his career took off.

The Twilight star was torn between training to become an actor or pursuing academic success at university when he was younger.

Fame called out to Pattinson and he landed his first major role playing wizard Cedric Diggory in 2005’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

But the career dilemma helped the 22 year old relate to his role in How To Be, in which he plays Art, a man who is going through a ‘quarter life crisis’.

Pattinson says, “It’s just kind of feeling you don’t really know where you’re going in the world. At the time I thought that – I didn’t know if I wanted to be an actor, I didn’t know what I was doing, I hadn’t been to university.

“I was bumming around, not feeling particularly good at anything but at the same time desperately wanting to and thinking ‘You’ll never reach your own goals you set for yourself’.”

Jackman’s Fear Of Dolls

Awww poor Hugh !!!

Action man Hugh Jackman has dashed his hardman persona – he’s scared of dolls coming to life.

The X-Men star admits he is spooked whenever kids’ toys are brought to life on-screen – and he has traced his fears back to watching horror movie Child’s Play as a youngster, which featured a murderous doll named Chucky.

He says, “When dolls come to life in films, that just freaks me out, I just can’t stand that. Chucky? Forget that. I remember when I was a little kid, and that little doll in the rocking chair going, ‘Take the girl right up the hill and kiss the girl goodbye’… I’m like, forget that! That freaks me out.”

Bale Slices Finger In Biking Accident

I love that he thought it was cool, haha.

British actor Christian Bale has been left with a disfigured finger after slicing off the top of the digit in a dirt-biking accident.

The Dark Knight star hurt himself during an action excursion earlier this year and has been left with a mangled left index finger which will be scarred for life.

But Bale admits he barely felt the injury – and didn’t realise how serious it was until he caught sight of his bloodied hand.

He says, “I had a dirt-biking accident and chopped it off at the end. You have something as extreme as that – you’ve lost the end of your finger – but it didn’t hurt.

“I just kept looking at it, going, ‘Why is that not hurting?’ The body’s amazing. It (the finger) looks horrible. Everyone else almost faints looking at it.”

Lucas Becomes A Part Of Sarandon/Robbins Family

Awww I think this is just sooo cute !!! I love Susan !!!

Movie star Josh Lucas feels like a member of Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins’ family after shooting back-to-back films with the couple and their kids.

The actor worked with Sarandon on new movie Peacock and she suggested he star in her partner’s new film Possible Side Effects.

Lucas says, “It’s about a pharmaceutical family and Tim and Susan’s kids are in the film. Eva (Amurri) plays my daughter and Miles (Robbins) plays my son.

“It was kind of odd because we really looked like a family.”

News: McConaughey’s Animal Fantasies

I would bet a lot of people fantasize about Matthew !!!

Matthew McConaughey has an unusual pastime – the actor fantasises surviving in the wilderness when he wants to entertain himself.

The Wedding Planner star has a passion for exotic travel and admits he frequently imagines himself fending off attacks by dangerous beasts on his journeys, armed only with a knife to defend himself.

He says, “I travel a lot in some wild places. I’m always thinking, ‘What if I came across a grizzly bear? What is by best chance of survival? What if a gator (alligator) gets me?'”

But McConaughey has yet to test out any of his wild theories of escape – and the actor hopes to keep it that way.

He adds, “I don’t know if they’d (my theories) work at all. I’m not sure what I want to do with the gator. With the grizzly bear I’ve got a better idea… I hope it doesn’t happen.”
