It took a dozen years for Peter Bogdanovich, one of the most famous directors of his generation, to send a new film to the big screen. He broke his twelve-year fast with the sarcastic romantic comedy Tavalka pach je (She's funny that way), i.e. the genre with which he made his name with the films What's Up, Doc?, Paper Moon, They All Laughed and Noises Off.

Now that we've got the first trailer for the Danny Boyle-directed Steve Jobs biopic, the modern-day Thomas Edison can stop rolling in his grave because it's a much better-crafted biopic than the 2013 one in which he played the tech guru Ashton Kutcher and did not live up to expectations. There was a lot of stalling with this film as well, but still in pre-production, especially around the director (David Fincher was first signed under him) and the main actor. The role eventually went to Michael Fassbender (Prometheus).
If you were worried that a new cast and a new director would spoil HBO's detective series True Detective, you can slowly stop worrying. Yes, it will be difficult to step into the shoes of Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson, but after the first real trailer, we can be a lot more reassured, because it seems that Vince Vaughn, Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams and Taylor Kitsch will be worthy successors of Rust and Marty.
Disney has always been "at home" in magic and mystery, which is proven once again in the mysterious adventure Tomorrowland: The World Beyond.

But of course there is someone who wants to spoil it all.

In honor of the return of the original cast , who is returning to his old jobs this year in the film Star Wars: The Force Awakens after several decades of hiatus, let's take a look at what the key players were like in the past and what we can expect on the movie screens today.
Robert De Niro, who is known for many iconic roles, turns into an intern in the latest film, and Anne Hathaway into his superior. Yes, you read that right. De Niro plays Ben Whittaker, a retired citizen who joins an internship program for the elderly. He assigns it to a fashion website run by Jules Austin (Hathaway).

Although the musical film Prava nota set the bar very high with the first film, it seems that the girls from the group Bardenska Belle will move it an octave higher in the second. For the past few months, we've been teased with trailers for Perfect Note 2, letting us know that the first film's success was no fluke. The pop culture phenomenon is already waiting for us in cinemas from May 14, 2015 with a new dose of laughter, great singing and life lessons.

Road warrior Max Rockatansky aka Mad Max is back. After 30 years, it was pulled out of mothballs by director George Miller, the father of both the octane desert Mad Max franchise and the post-apocalyptic genre.

The premiere of Mad Max: Fury Road (May 14, 2015) is fast approaching, and to help you get through the next few days until the fourth installment of the post-apocalyptic franchise, we're serving up all the wrecked vehicles featured in it. Director George Miller dedicated a large part of the film to the octane monsters, which will probably completely steal the show from Tom Hardy, who replaces Mel Gibson and Charlize Theron in the role of Max. It is the exact opposite of what we see in the Fast and Furious series, which is not a bad thing at all.
