Apparently, Summer is coming soon, so what better way to prepare than to preview three of the year blockbusters. After all, it’s going to be chucking it down all over June, July and August isn’t it?! So get some shelter at the cinema and catch a movie!
Man of Steel
Man of Steel is yet another Superman film, this time with a gritty Nolanesque reboot from Zack Snyder, repenting for Sucker Punch. The stellar cast includes Amy Adams, Kevin Costner, Laurence Fishburne, Diane Lane, Russell Crowe, and Henry Cavill as the flying man himself.
This film will focus on the origin and personal journey of the superhero. And General Zod is in it too! Kneel to Michael Shannon (dunno if he will better Terence Stamp’s performance)! That’s all we know – the film’s plot is completely under wraps, which makes it all the more intriguing.
Pacific Rim
Writer/director Guillermo del Toro is back with a huge budgeted sci-fi beast with Pacific Rim, his hat tip to Japanese action flicks and massive robots. This will be one of the summer movies we will all need to see on the biggest screen possible!
Ellen McLain, known for GLaDOS of the Portal games will provide the her voice, Idris Elba looks crazy in it, and there’s Ron Perlman.
Check the synopsis –
“When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes – a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi) – who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.”
Kick-Ass 2
Jim Carrey’s sure to turn in a psychotic performance as the grizzled, sadistic Colonel Stars and Stripes. Chloe Grace Moretz, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Christopher Mintz-Plasse are all back for Kick Ass 2 and if goes well this franchise could grow and grow.
The plot follows Kick-Ass as he confronts the influence of his popularity, which has spawned a group of rival superhero teams seeking exclusive rights to dole out violent vigilantism. Overseeing the film’s undoubtedly brutal violence and black humour is relative newcomer Jeff Wadlow, who also wrote the screenplay.
So there you go, three films to check out this summer! 2013 is going to be a great year!
