A good mystery thriller has us on the edge of our seats and has us convinced we know who the criminal is at some point in the movie only to realize it wasn’t who we thought it was. It builds upon itself with great characters giving more than terrific performances. And it has a story that keeps us engaged for the entire duration.

But Tomas Alfredson‘s adaptation of Jo Nesbø‘s The Snowman is anything but the aforementioned qualities. It is sporadic, horribly paced, and lacks any sort of structure. Instead, we are given a fairly predictable film that feels like it was just piled on top of each other trying to pass itself off as a decent movie. My full review below.

Universal has released the first trailer for Tomas Alfredson‘s (Let the Right One In, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) The Snowman. The film is based on the popular novel written by author Jo Nesbø, which sees Detective Harry Hole (Michael Fassbender) investigating the disappearance of a woman, who appears to be in connected to a series of murders where the killer leaves behind a bloody snowman as a calling card.

Check out the trailer below.

We’ve already seen a first trailer, a Super Bowl TV spot, and a second trailer for Independence Day sequel, titled Independence Day: Resurgence.

But if you can’t wait for the movie to release in just about a month, 20th Century Fox has released a giant of a new extended trailer, which clocks in at a little under five minutes in length.

You can read more about the movie and check out the lengthy new trailer below.

The “Star Spangled Banner” is playing. The players are ready to go. It’s Super Bowl time. Ooh, here comes the fly over… THEY’RE COMING RIGHT FOR US!!!

That’s how the Super Bowl TV spot for Independence Day: Resurgence starts… And it’s great. Watch the new footage here below.

Liam Hemsworth flying around blasting alien ships, Bill Pullman is back, bearded and grizzled.

The much anticipated trailer for the trailer for Independence Day sequel Independence Day: Resurgence has finally arrived. Twenty years after the first film became a hit, director Roland Emmerich is back for some more, and he is bringing with him a few familiar faces to the franchise. Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, Brent Spiner, Judd Hirsch, and Vivica A. Fox all return to reprise their respective roles. Will Smith is noticeably absent from the sequel – and the reason why is explained in the trailer – but his character’s son will be played by Jessie Usher.

So how much as changed since the events? Well, it appears that the world has adapted the technology used by the aliens to enhance military capabilities. But that is nothing compared to what’s coming when the aliens suddenly return in full forced with a far more advanced technology than the ones they saw back in 1996. Check out the first trailer for Independence Day: Resurgence here below.
