So crazy it could only be true story ‘The Greatest Beer Run Ever’ draws mixed first reactions

Peter Farrelly loves a surprising true story. After Green Book‘s best picture win at the Oscars, Farrelly is following it up with The Greatest Beer Run Ever, a wacky Vietnam War movie based on real events, which stars Zac Efron in his first big movie role since 2019’s Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile.

The movie premiered Tuesday at the Toronto Film Festival (where Green Book won the People’s Choice Award in 2018) and, if the first few reviews are anything to go by, it doesn’t look like Farrelly will be at the Oscars again next year.

‘All Quiet On the Western Front’ reviews praise Netflix’s haunting war epic

Lewis Milestone’s 1930 classic All Quiet on the Western Front was a revolutionary movie, both from a cinematic point of view, and for its anti-war subject matter, so it’s no small feat for Netflix’s take on the story to have apparently lived up to its predecessor, according to the first wave of reviews.

Directed by Edward Berger, All Quiet On The Western Front is the first German adaptation of the Erich Maria Remarque novel Im Westen nichts Neues, which depicts the gruesome reality of German soldiers in World War I. It shows the side of the loser, not by demonizing the opposition, but by exposing war’s arbitrary and frivolous nature.

‘Skyfall’ director thinks the next ‘James Bond’ movie should be helmed by a woman

Having directed the single most successful installment in the 60-year history of the James Bond franchise, Skyfall and Spectre‘s Sam Mendes is more than qualified to give his opinion on what the future should hold for the iconic secret agent.

After all, his first stab at tackling the legendary property yielded what many believe to be not just the best entry in the Daniel Craig era, but one of the finest Bond blockbusters ever made. Not only that, but it’s the one and only installment to have reached a billion dollars at the box office, becoming the seventh highest-grossing film ever made at the time.
