News For: Sean Penn, Javier Bardem, Pierre Morel And The Gunmen Film, #1 Debut This Weekend

2015-03-20T07:20:00.001-07:00

Perhaps the creepiest villain of all time is the character that Writers and Directors Joel and Ethan Coen created in the film NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, Anton Chigurh, now he's back going head to head with the greatest actor of my generation, Sean Penn, in a film that may prove this weekend to be the beginning of the next TAKEN series.

Why do we see the these movies when they're relatively similar in plot and style? Simple. We love the result.

Seeing a film like this is like working on out on a speed bag...invigorating, enjoyable and relaxing.

Oh how I love being an American.

Now that SMU has been knocked out of the NCAA Tournament I'll use this film for stress relief and bet on it for a number one debut.

News For Actor Liam Niesson and Luc Nesson-Film, Taken 3 Is Amazing But Not As Good As Taken or Taken 2 With "Brad Richdale"

2015-02-01T04:51:00.001-08:00

The film, Taken 3, like Taken and Taken 2 is a wild ride with some mind blowing scenes but the film doesn't have the same look and feel as Taken and Taken 2.

Nonetheless if you still want a little Luc Besson style adrenaline rush it still does the job.

News For Michael Keaton and Edward Norton, and Emma Stone--The Film Birdman Hits On All Cylinders

2015-01-23T09:36:00.001-08:00

If you're a guy eventually the question comes up who was your favorite Batman? Tough question isn't it?

It's a toss up for me between Christian Bale and Michael Keaton. Sure, Val Kilmer and George Clooney were also great but I'll never forget the first Batman that I saw with my son Andrew (now 30, then age 3).

We ran into the theater because we knew we were late and I'll always remember Michael Keaton falling into the frame upside down as Batman and Jack Nicholson's first scene as the Joker.

I've always enjoyed Michael Keaton's work but like Mickey Rourke's performance in the Wrestler, Michael Keaton's performance in the Birdman is flawless.

This is one of those films where every frame, and every actor and actress is perfect. Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu is brilliant as the Director.

News For Reese Witherspoon and Brian Grazer

News For The Film Exodus God And Kings, Christian Bale, Ridley Scott, Adam Cooper And Bill Collage-Exodus Is The Home Run Of Christian Films

2014-12-15T06:12:00.000-08:00

If Ridley Scott announced he was filming three actors shopping at Costco, I'd pay for the ticket.

He is the greatest director of our time. The same man who stunned us with an Apple commercial and upstaged the Super Bowl.

What's different about Ridley Scott? He imagines the scenes and visualizes them in his mind while he's scouting locations. His ability to do this is his greatest gift and this quality is what makes him the greatest Director of our time.

Exodus Gods and Kings isn't good, it's brilliant. All the critics dumped on it but thank God critics don't determine box office success. Most critics are too stupid to think through the eyes of the ticket buyer and once again they've been proven wrong.

When you beat a franchise as well done (and promoted) as the Hunger Games that's significant.

What Ridley Scott and actor Christian Bale as Moses have done is turned one of the greatest Bible stories into a brilliant adventure. Writers Adam Cooper and Bill Collage will now be in great demand in 2015 and beyond.

Congratulations to 20th Century Fox, Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah!

Bill Murray and Melissa McCarthy In The Film St. Vincent May Be Seeing Oscar

2014-10-20T04:40:00.002-07:00

It's that time of the year, where people start dreaming of Oscar and talking about Golden Globes and St. Vincent may be set to get both.

Actor Bill Murray and actress Melissa McCarthy are comedic geniuses and they along with Harvey Weinstein and Bill Weinstein could be laughing hard with big smiles through award season.

See the film it will have you howling in your seats.

The Film GET ON UP With JAMES BROWN...Chad Boseman Is Amazing by "Brad Richdale"

2014-08-06T09:54:00.002-07:00

Portrayed by actor Chad Boseman, GET ON UP may be the single best film of the summer. Produced by Brian Grazer and Mick Jagger with veteran actor Dan Aykroyd, GET ON UP will get you moving.

If Chad Boseman doesn't get an Oscar nomination I'll be stunned.

The Film Heaven Is Real Will Do Over $150 Million With It's Easter Opening by "Brad Richdale"

2014-04-08T13:59:00.001-07:00

This is the the year of Christian movies for Hollywood.

I wonder how much God will get in royalties?

That being said, Heaven Is Real is a great Easter weekend release.

Actor Greg Kinnear as Rake on FOX is fun but as the star of Heaven Is Real he's amazing.

R.I.P.D. With Jeff Bridges, Ryan Reynolds and Kevin Bacon Is As Much Fun As Men In Black (MIB) by "Brad Richdale"

2013-12-04T09:20:00.003-08:00

If actor Jeff Bridges is in a film it's almost certain to be entertaining. Alongside actors Ryan Reynolds and Kevin Bacon the film, R.I.P.D. is never slow or uninteresting.

Jeff Bridges draws on the character he played with Joel and Ethan Coen in the re-make of True Grit; he's a gritty old lawman that is now contracted to work for the Rest In Peace Department, or R.I.P.D for short.

You might recall another Coen Brothers gem that Jeff Bridges starred in titled The Big Lebowski with actor John Goodman. In simple terms Jeff Bridges isn't just a great actor, he's a great entertainer.

R.I.P.D. is now available to rent and is better than you might expect and even though it's rated PG 13 it's a lot of fun for the family.

Actress Jennifer Lawrence Is Now A Superstar-The Hunger Games-Catching The Fire by "Brad Richdale"

2013-09-20T06:53:00.000-07:00

Actress Jennifer Lawrence is the next Nicole Kidman. That's a huge compliment.

She is a brilliant talent and the plot for the next installment of the film, Hunger Games, is incredible. The villain in the film is actor, Phillip Seymour Hoffman and of course another brilliant actor, Stanley Tucci, Woody Harrelson, and Donald Sutherland are also back.

Slated for November 22, 2013 release it will make the Turkey taste even better.

The complete review is at Brad Richdale Business.

Actor Robert Redford Is Still Amazing In The Company You Keep by "Brad Richdale"

2013-08-15T09:03:00.001-07:00

If you think 76 year old actor Robert Redford is slowing down and no longer able to deliver an Oscar worthy performance then you need to see the film, The Company You Keep.

The film is a thriller that gets you into the story quickly from the opening scene. With Actor Nick Nolte, Susan Sarandon, Terrence Howard, Chris Cooper and especially Shia LaBeouf delivering incredible performances.

It's well written, well directed and the casting is incredible.

Here's the trailer that will get your blood pumping. I also go into more detail at Brad Richdale Wikipedia and Brad Richdale Business where I discuss the details of each actor's performance.

This film is the summer sleeper film, check it out while it's in theaters. Any film with Sam Rockwell as an actor is brilliant.

Guns N' Roses (It's So Easy) Have Produced A Brilliant Business Model And An Amazing Trailer

2013-07-19T08:24:00.000-07:00

If Tony Robbins were advising you on success he'd say find a successful person, figure out their model and then do what they're doing.

Writer, Director and Producer Chris Duddy understands business models.

He knows how to pre-sell a project to investors and distributors in the film business.

Most of all he understands that his work is a combination of creativity, savvy, and numbers. The right numbers, where revenues exceed expenses determine your success in the film business. Awards without profits are useless. Chris understands this and has perfected a model that works over and over again.

Maybe Chris will use the JOBS Act to produce slates of films that fall within his model.

Chris, the husband of the brilliant stage, comedic and dramatic actress, Joely Fisher (daughter of Connie Stevens and Eddie Fisher), has figured out a model that he can replicate over and over again and make a profit.

Duff is the Guns N Roses bassist who pushed Drugs and Alcohol abuse to the edge of death.

What I love about their trailer is it's a lot like a great 2 minute DRTV commercial. It instantly grabs you, builds a case and an urgency to respond and then gets you anxious to see the film. The trailer is the key to selling films.

This is arguably one of the best trailers ever produced.

I hope the documentary, It's So Easy and Other Lies is a home run for both Duff and Chris.

I believe that Duff McKagen's story is one of the greatest stories of recovery and human survival ever told. When you watch this trailer you'll either want to go see the film or go to rehab, or both.

Story board this trailer and you will be stunned by the way the trailer builds the urgency to see the film, It's So Easy and Other Lies. If this film doesn't get selected at any film festival it submits to I'd be shocked.

The Film The PUSHER, Director Nicolas Winding Refn and Actor, Brad Richdale

2013-07-13T07:10:00.003-07:00

Business is good for Nicolas Winding Refn the Director of Drive and The Pusher.

I just watched the Pusher and I would easily say it's as good as the film Drive, possibly even better just void of a big star like Ryan Gosling.

The pacing is great and the film takes you into the conflicts and problems both criminally and emotionally that occur in the life of a drug dealer.

With Adrian Grenier's film, How to Make Money Selling Drugs and the film The Pusher it's easy to see that the audience and studios from a business standpoint will continue to do films in this genre as long as the audience wants to buy the ticket. I also wrote an article about this at Brad Richdale Business.

Business always comes back to this basic, fundamental creed, "sell what people want to buy."
