Fast and Furious 6 Reviews: A Vin-ing Installment?

Two big-time movies come out today.

And while Hangover 3 reviews don’t exactly make us anxious to rush out and purchase a ticket, most critics seem to agree that Fast & Furious 6 still holds some appeal, even after all these years and installments of the franchise.

Scroll down for a rundown of their reviews…

There’s a Road Runneresque sense of madness that’s undeniably infectious. If only it was played off characters who had some sense of reality, who weren’t such obvious constructions, and who spoke fewer leaden lines. - Detroit News

[The action is] glorious while it lasts,

CHRIS HEMSWORTH RON HOWARD’S ‘Rush’

Something tells me actor-turned-director Ron Howard has another amazing movie on his hands! He directed the movie ‘Rush.’ ‘Thor‘ leading man Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Bruhl star as Formula One racing rivals James Hunt (Chris) and Niki Lauda (Daniel). ‘Rush’ is based on a true story.

What I love about Ron Howard as a director is that he doesn’t rely on special effects or action scenes to keep the audience entertain. He relies on a great STORY. Great stories aren’t easy to come by in Hollywood movies. ‘Rush,’ however, looks like it will be one of the exceptions! Check out the new trailer

Michelle Rodriguez: ‘Girls don’t respect sluts’ and ‘no man respects a floozy’

Here are some photos of Michelle Rodriguez earlier this week at the LA premiere of Fast & Furious 6. Michelle looked pretty, didn’t she? I get the feeling that she’s trying to be more girly and frilly these days – she’s really been going for more feminine looks for her red carpet appearances. Anyway, Michelle is playing her resurrected character Letty in the film, and she feels very strongly about Letty. Michelle sat down with Vulture to discuss how she put her own “No Sluts” rule onto Letty:

Did she think Fast & Furious would become a thing? “Hell, no. Are you kidding me? First one, I

Don Jon Trailer: Arrived!

Joseph Gordon-Levitt with a porn addiction? Sure, sounds entertaining.

Gordon-Levitt and Scarlett Johansson talking with strong New Jersey accents? Even better.

Check out the first Don Jon trailer, which marks Gordon-Levitt’s writing/directorial debut:

Gordon-Levitt plays Jon Martello, a porn-addicted man with a habit for objectifying everything.

When he meets a Barbara, played by Johansson, his attitude begins to change.

Julianne Moore, Tony Danza, and Brie Larson also star, with Anne Hathaway, Channing Tatum, and Cuba Gooding Jr. making cameos.

PETA slams Hangover III for simulated animal cruelty: reactionary or deserved?

The Hangover movies kind of run together in a blur in my head, but I saw both of them and I remember animals figuring prominently in each. There was that capuchin monkey in Hangover II (she has her own wiki page, did you know?) and there were chickens and a tiger in the first movie. Well it turns out there’s a damn giraffe in this one, and this is a spoiler warning, but it’s in trailer so I don’t feel any guilt about revealing it – the giraffe gets beheaded by a thruway overpass. Of course PETA is all up in arms over this, even though the giraffe beheading was all computer generated. A

JESSICA CHASTAIN Star Wears Elizabeth Taylor’s Necklace For ‘Cleopatra’ Cannes Screening

LOOK at that necklace Jessica Chastain is wearing. That puppy used to belong to the late Elizabeth Taylor. It’s only fitting that Jessica would wear it to a screening of one of Elizabeth’s biggest movies, ‘Cleopatra.’ This year is the 50th anniversary of ‘Cleopatra,’ which is why its screening at Cannes.

Jessica wisely went with a simple gown. She let the necklace take center stage. Richard Burton bought Elizabeth the necklace for her 40th birthday. Bulgari bought the necklace back at auction in 2011 and typically doesn’t lend the necklace out, according to People, but since they were

Bradley Cooper at the LA ‘Hangover III’ premiere: hot or fug serial killer?

Here’s a photo of Bradley Cooper with Ed Helms at the premiere of The Hangover III. Dude on the left looks like he can’t shake the 1970s American Hustle vibe (what’s with the burnt orange suit and the matchy matchy shoes?), but I’m glad the perm isn’t really a perm. While I often delight in poking a bit of fun at my favorite serial killer, it’s nice to know that Bradley is still enthused to show up and support his more “lowbrow” movies after achieving the status of Oscar-nominated leading man. He looks happy and healthy here, but the suit is … well, Ed looks great!

Now for an interesting

PARIS HILTON She Cried While Watching “The Bling Ring”

Wow. It looks like one of the most talked-about movies of the year has really hit close to home for this celebrity. According to Paris Hilton, she cried while watching Sofia Coppola‘s movie, “The Bling Ring.”

The heiress, whose home was among the many celebrity pads burglarized by the teens in real life, told New York magazine at the screening’s after-party, “I was really emotional watching it. During some parts of it, I literally had tears in my eyes and I wanted to cry.”

Paris said, “I knew what happened with the burglaries, but I had never actually seen it — so watching it happen, I was

Christopher Nolan Approached to Direct Bond 24

Christopher Nolan, the man who essentially codified the “gritty realism” thing happening in every Superhero movie these days, has been approached to direct Bond 24.

Maybe Nolan can inject some gritty realism into the Bond franchise. No more kids-only Bond movies!

The unnamed Bond film is reportedly already being written, with producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson eyeing release within the next three years. Daniel Craig will return to the role of 007.

The director search is still in the very early stages, but Skyfall director Sam Mendes has stated that he is
