Paul Thomas Anderson Week: 'There Will Be Blood' Review!

• There Will Be Blood, 2007 • 8.2/10 • Firstly, I would like to start with Daniel Day Lewis' mesmerizing performance as the ruthless oil prospector, Daniel Plainview. The scumbag cons local landowners into selling their valuable land for pittance, and then he comes along like a "straw" and "sucks it all up," leaving him very wealthy and everyone else in his way. Paul Dano, Wow, do you really expect anything less than magic when it comes to him acting, he's a true tour de force. I wish we had preachers like Eli Sunday up at my local church. Johnny Greenwood's score is brilliant, it really gets under your skin, you then combine that with the gorgeous cinematography, smart screenplay and the brilliant acting, you then have yourself a film where even if your not paying complete attention, you will still hate the lead by the end, all the same!

James Franco gives an awe-inspiring performance as both director and star in this masterpiece about the making of the best-worst movie 'The Room'. This is definetly an Oscar worthy performance from James Franco, who captures every essence of Tommy perfectly, it was so refreshing to see one of my favourite comedic actors back at his best, showing the world once again what he is truly capable of after a run of mediocre indie flicks. This isn't his first time in the directors chair but it is his first in-front of a worldwide audience and I have to say the likes of Scorsese couldn't of done any better. He really was a perfect Tommy, there persona's, the...

Seth Rogen has criticised a new Sony Pictures initiative to make family friendly versions of its films available to viewers. Sony’s Clean Version initiative allows home entertainment customers to purchase films that have been edited for broadcast television and in-flight entertainment systems. Under the scheme, “scenes of graphic violence, offensive language, sexual innuendo and other adult content” will be censored or removed from some PG-13 and R-rated movies. So far, “clean versions” of 24 films, including Captain Phillips, Step Brothers and the Spider-Man movies, have been made available to purchase. Rogen criticised the initiative on Twitter : “Holy shit please don’t do this to our movies. Thanks.” Holy shit please don't do this to our movies. Thanks. https://t.co/0lpoESaIQd — Seth Rogen (@Sethrogen) 6 June 2017 The actor, who has made adult-themed comedies such as Knocked Up , This Is The End and Sausage Party (don't forget the legendary Pineapple Expre...
