Paul Review

Paul Wallpaper

Paul comes from the team that brought us Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz.
Or most of the team: Writer-stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are still aboard, but director Edgar Wright has been replaced by Greg Mottola. And that substitution makes all the difference.
Not that Mottola doesn’t know his way around a joke: He proved that he did with Superbad and Adventureland. But he lacks the slightly nastier edge that Wright brought to the work. Watching Paul makes you wonder whether Wright wasn’t the one who kicked those films up the notch needed to give them their bite…read more [Huffington Post]

Attack the Block

The trailer for action adventure movie Attack the Block has gone online.

Trainee nurse Sam is walking home to her flat in a scary South London tower block when she’s robbed by a gang of masked, hooded youths. She’s saved when the gang are distracted by a bright meteorite, which falls from the sky and hits a nearby parked car. Sam flees, just before the gang are attacked by a small alien creature that leaps from the wreckage. The gang chase the creature and kill it, dragging its ghoulish carcass to the top of the block, which they treat as their territory. While Sam and the police hunt for the gang, a second wave of meteors fall. Confident of victory against such feeble invaders, the gang grab weapons, mount bikes and mopeds, and set out to defend their turf. But this time, the creatures are bigger. Much bigger. Savage, shadowy and bestial, they are hunting their fallen comrade and nothing will stand in their way. The estate is about to become a battleground. And the bunch of no-hope kids who just attacked Sam are about to become her, and the block¹s, only hope.

Trailer after the break.

Paul

Here’s a funny film clip from the new sci-fi comedy Paul. In the clip Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Kristen Wiig and Seth Rogan‘s alien character Paul sit nearly a bonfire. Paul offers a hit of his joint with government issued weed, Wiig joins, and she gets crazy high very fast.

The film stars Pegg and Frost who wrote the script as well, during their road-trip crossways the U.S. when they have a close encounter of the third kind with a runaway alien named Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen). The doubtful heroes then begin an adventure to get Paul to his spaceship.

The supporting cast is amazing as well and includes, Kristen Wiig, Jason Bateman, Bill Hader, Joe Lo Truglio, Jane Lynch, Jeffrey Tambor and Sigourney Weaver.
