The Christopher Nolan-produced, Zack Snyder-directed Superman reboot Man of Steel pushed back to 2013

Previously set for release in December 2012 alongside a number of highly anticipated films like Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln (starring the towering Daniel Day Lewis and many others) and Quentin Tarantino’s spaghetti Western Django Unchained (which also features an A-list cast including Leonardo DiCaprio in a villainous role), Man of Steel (2013) has been moved to June 14, 2013.  Reports indicate that the script by David Goyer, Kurt Johnstad and Jonathan Nolan (as well as edits by Christopher Nolan) needed some refinement, and the production wouldn’t be completed in time for the Christmas 2012 release date.

Film Review: The Fighter

Want to see a crowd-pleasing film, based on a true story, with excellent performances from its cast? Look no further than David O. Russell’s The Fighter. It has a straightforward and mostly predictable story that is character driven. Viewers may not relate to the main character’s dysfunctional family too much, but they will feel for them, one way or another. The Fighter is a solid entry into the boxing film genre and is energized by what should be award-winning or nominating performances by Christian Bale, Melissa Leo, Amy Adams, and Mark Wahlberg.
