Watch Robert De Niro in 'Everybody's Fine' trailer

DateWednesday, September 16, 2009 at 11:42PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Everybody's Fine with Robert De Niro and Drew Barrymore

This looks like something that could be a sweet, amusing dramedy: Kirk Jones' upcoming "Everybody's Fine," which stars Robert De Niro, Kate Beckinsale, Drew Barrymore and Sam Rockwell and will hit theaters Dec. 4, 2009. Check out the film's first trailer after the jump.

In the flick, a widower (De Niro) embarks on an impromptu road trip to reconnect with each of his grown children only to discover that their lives are far from picture perfect.

Of course, the first thing that intrigues me here is the solid cast, which I'm really looking forward to experience in this film. I mean, who wouldn't want to see De Niro, Beckinsale, Barrymore and Rockwell work together?

'Choke' web reviews

DateFriday, September 26, 2008 at 7:06AM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

If you're fan of Chuck Palahniuk, I'm sure you're quick excited about the release of Clark Gregg's big-screen adaptation of "Choke," which stars Sam Rockwell as man who pays for his mom’s hospital bills by pretending to choke on food in top-notch restaurants. You can read our review here. Let's briefly look at what some other online critics have to say about this:

• Josh Tyler at Cinema Blend: "'Choke' sets out from frame one to stake a claim as the most vile, seedy, morally bankrupt movie of the year. It succeeds, and it’s all the better for it."

• Cinematical's Erik Davis: "While I'm a huge fan of Palahniuk, his books and especially "Choke," there's only one reason why I would recommend you check out this film, and one reason only: Sam Rockwell."

Review: "Choke"

DateWednesday, September 24, 2008 at 5:21PM | By AuthorDavid Ashley

Seen on: September 15, 2008

The players: Director: Clark Gregg, Writer: Clark Gregg, Cast: Sam Rockwell, Anjelica Huston, Kelly MacDonald, Brad Henke, Joel Grey

Facts of interest: "Choke" is based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, author of "Fight Club."

The plot: It's the story of a man who pays for his mom’s hospital bills by pretending to choke on food in top-notch restaurants.

Our thoughts: I wonder if Sam Rockwell has a clause in his contract that stipulates that he will only work if he is typecast as a neurotic bungler... let's just say that this may have been the first time Rockwell played a character who walks around for 30 minutes with a derelict anal bead in his rectum, but it doesn't feel like the first time I've seen him do that.
