Ya adaptations re-assert their draw as ‘Insurgent’ wins the weekend box office
22 March 2015 3:09 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Robert Schwentke’s The Divergent Series: Insurgent, the second entry in the Divergent franchise adaptation of Veronica Roth’s novels, took home $54 million to rise to the top of the box office on its opening weekend. The opening roughly matches the first weekend total of the film’s prequel, which bowed with $54.6 million. Last week’s box office champion Cinderella saw a drop of nearly 50 percent to end up with $34.5 million over the weekend, landing it in second place, while Jaume Collet-Serra’s newest feature Run All Night saw a similar drop in revenue from last weekend to round out the top three.
Taken director Pierre Morel’s newest action feature The Gunman also made its debut by landing in the top ten, as the Sean Penn-starring film’s $5 million total landed it in fourth place. The other opening weekend film to land in the top ten was Do You Believe? »

Dye Another Day: Jaume Collet-Serra and Liam Neeson’s Three Colors Trilogy
22 March 2015 6:27 AM, PDT | MUBI | See recent MUBI news »
Solid ground doesn’t exist in the cinema of Jaume Collet-Serra and Liam Neeson. Theirs is an action cinema of distress where the mental instability of each protagonist blurs the boundaries of seemingly tight spatial parameters. Conflict unfolds violently and manipulatively within manmade (and psychological) bubbles, as vast as the multiple boroughs of New York City or as small as the cramped fuselage of a passenger jet. There is no escape, only the desperate and unflinching pursuit of truth, moral direction, and family safety. The bad guys often win, but the good guys always gain closure.Angular compositions and desperate tracking shots populate 2011’s Unknown, 2014’s Non-Stop, and 2015’s Run All Night. Images overlap, tip, ascend and dive to visualize the world as one big box of quick sand. The camera propels through space like a boomerang, challenging logic and defying gravity with reckless abandon. Every step forward brings us »

Box Office Democracy: “Run All Night”
19 March 2015 6:34 PM, PDT | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »
When exactly did we decide Liam Neeson is the new paragon of action movies? I’m not even sure I can name the second biggest star in action movies right now in terms of output or cultural cachet. If someone anywhere in the world right now is making a joke about a hypothetical action movie I bet it stars Neeson. Run All Night is Neeson’s second collaboration with director Jaume Collet-Serra after last year’s Non-Stop, which was widely derided as “Taken on a plane”. They’re back this time hopefully not in an attempt to prove their incredible creative range as Run All Night is essentially Taken but if the child was a boy instead of a girl; it is not a lot of fun.
It has been suggested to me recently that the reason I don’t connect well with the Taken films is because they’re primarily aimed at women. »

Movie Review – Run All Night (2015)
17 March 2015 11:17 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Run All Night, 2015.
Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra.
Starring Liam Neeson, Joel Kinnaman, Ed Harris, Genesis Rodriguez, Vincent D’Onofrio, Boyd Holbrook, Common and Holt McCallany.
Synopsis:
Mobster and hit man Jimmy Conlon has one night to figure out where his loyalties lie: with his estranged son, Mike, whose life is in danger, or his longtime best friend, mob boss Shawn Maguire, who wants Mike to pay for the death of his own son.
When Liam Neeson first purposefully told those pesky bad guys in Taken that he’d find them, and then kill them, few (even Neeson himself) would have envisioned his career taking such a dramatic shift into becoming an action star. Even whilst the likes of Stallone and Schwarzenegger found themselves having a brief renaissance thanks to The Expendables franchise, the interest in them soon waned, whilst Neeson has remained fairly bankable.
The Taken franchise has made a fortune, »

Box Office: Does 'Run All Night' Mark the End of Liam Neeson's Run of Action Hits?
16 March 2015 4:00 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
It's no surprise that "Cinderella" beat "Run All Night" among newcomers this weekend. The Disney live-action fairy tale was widely expected to suck all the oxygen out of the box office, and its estimated $70.1 million debut is in line with predictions.
Still, "Run All Night" seemed like it would be smart counter-programming, drawing older men who wouldn't be interested in a movie made for young girls. Yet "Run All Night" underperformed even its modest predictions (in the $14 million range), opening instead at just an estimated $11.0 million.
For the third week in a row, then, Hollywood experts will be tearing their hair out, wondering if a formerly sure-fire leading man (Will Smith two weeks ago, Vince Vaughn last week, and now Liam Neeson) has permanently lost his mojo. In each case, despite a recent downward trend, the funeral arrangements seem premature. True, it's not hard to see why Neeson's career appears to be in trouble. »

Box Office: 'Cinderella' has a magical $70 million weekend
15 March 2015 10:16 AM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
It didn't reach the heights of "Oz: The Great and Powerful" or "Alice in Wonderland," but you can bet the executives at Walt Disney Studios are overjoyed at the opening of their live action version of "Cinderella" this weekend. Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of the classic fairy tale opened to a magical $70 million to easily take the no. 1 spot at the weekend box office. "Cinderella" reportedly played to a massive 77% female audience and earned an A Cinemascore grade. The family flick will have some competition next weekend as "Insurgent" is poised to steal some of its teenage girl and twentysomething female audience, but "Cinderella" is already a hit that will contribute to all aspects of the Disney empire. Debuting far behind in second place was Jaume Collet-Serra's "Run All Night." The Liam Neeson thriller earned a positive A- Cinemascore grade and mixed to positive reviews, but earned just $11 million over the three-day. »

Cinderella Rules The Us Box Office
15 March 2015 8:32 AM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
Cinderella’s fairy godmother was clearly watching over her at the Us box office this weekend, as Disney’s latest ‘toon-to-live-action conversion job debuted with a huge $70 million domestically. With some international openings already under way, the film is up to more than $132 million worldwide, according to studio estimates.That’ll serve to bolster the studio’s efforts to turn its cartoon archive into more live-action adventures, with Beauty And The Beast, The Jungle Book, an Alice In Wonderland sequel and Dumbo (which Tim Burton is considering directing) all on the slate. And it probably didn’t hurt that the film also carried the first new Frozen material in a while, in the shape of short Frozen Fever. Do not underestimate the incredible drawing power of Arendelle…Liam Neeson didn’t fare as well, and probably wishes that he’d had a little magical intervention as his third action collaboration with director Jaume Collet-Serra, »

Richard Roeper from the Chicago Sun-Times, gave it a great 88 score, saying: "Even though it feels as if we’ve seen this movie before, Run All Night is a stylish and kinetic thriller, with Neeson at his gritty, world-weary best, some of the coolest camera moves in recent memory and a Hall of Fame villain in the great Ed Harris."

Box Office: 'Cinderella' spins family magic on Friday with $23 million
14 March 2015 10:45 AM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
Walt Disney Studios has had tremendous success over the years bringing live action versions of some of its most popular animated films to the big screen. Is anyone surprised then that "Cinderella" is already a smash? The Kenneth Branagh adaptation of the classic fairy tale opened to a wicked $23 million on Friday for what could be a $70 million plus weekend. That would make "Cinderella" the second biggest opening of the year after "Fifty Shades of Grey" which scored $85 million over its first three days last month. "Cinderella" also earned a stellar A Cinemascore and positive notices from critics which should help with word of mouth over the next few weeks. Debuting far behind was the Liam Neeson thriller "Run All Night" with just $3.85 million. The Warner Bros. release is expected to earn $11-12 million for the weekend. The muted reception for the Jaume Collet-Serra directed flick may be a telling »

Exclusive Interview With Jaume Collet-Serra On Run All Night
13 March 2015 4:40 PM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
Last year, director Jaume Collet-Serra brought us the high octane guilty pleasure flick, Non-Stop, and while that was set entirely on a plane (for the most part), his latest film, Run All Night, spans across New York City.
Marking his third collaboration with Liam Neeson, the gritty character-driven thriller centers on an estranged father and son (Neeson and Joel Kinnaman) who find themselves going head-to-head with a former mob boss (Ed Harris). Truth be told, it’s a highly enjoyable thriller and easily one of Neeson’s better efforts in recent years, which is a sentiment that our very own David James agreed with in his review:
This is a genre film made by a cast and crew who care enough about their craft to make the best damn genre film they can. It’d have been real easy to phone this project in, and I’m definitely glad that they didn’t. »

About Last Night : Collet-Serra’s Latest Neeson Rating
You may not have realized it, but while the Taken trilogy was warping its course through a series of cinematic banalities, ripened action star Liam Neeson set off on a course of similarly themed vehicles with director Jaume Collet-Serra, resulting in this, their third collaboration, Run All Night. A familiar cocktail of second generation blue collar honor struggling to overcome the stagnant moral nadir of organized crime sleaze gets streamlined into a by-the-numbers action flick that only manages to feel as stale is it is unbelievable, like nuggets of Scorsese whirled through a Luc Besson meat grinder. At this point, we kinda know what to expect from the Liam Neeson school of action film stardom, and wading through screenwriter Brad Ingelsby’s disappointing treatment of hard-won street redemption, you won’t find anything remotely surprising.

What to Watch This Week: Cinderella, Run All Night
13 March 2015 9:33 AM, PDT | Cineplex | See recent Cineplex news »
Liam Neeson continues to do his aging hitman “thang” in this weekend’s Run All Night. If you’re a fan of the Takenfranchise – or basically any of the movies the Irish actor has made lately – it’s a sure bet that the action flick by Spain’s Jaume Collet-Serra is right up your alley.
And to be honest, given the genre, Liam Neeson is probably waiting in that alley with a shotgun.
On the complete opposite side of the coin this weekend, British movie icon (and director of Thor) Kenneth Branagh brings his live-action adaptation of Cinderella to the big screen.
With ball gowns that could justify their own orbits, the Disney princess film, starring Lily James (“Downton Abbey”), Richard Madden (“Game of Thrones”), and Cate Blanchett, will satisfy any craving for romance, magic, and Helena Bonham Carter eccentricity.

Run All Night Review
13 March 2015 9:00 AM, PDT | www.themoviebit.com | See recent TheMovieBit news »
We're only two and a half months into 2015, and already we have Liam Neeson doing his action hero schtick for a second time. Teaming up with director Jaume Collet-Serra for a third time, after Unknown and Non-Stop, Neeson is Jimmy Conlon, an aging hit man for the mob who has fallen on hard times, depending on hand outs and alcohol to survive. When his estranged son Mike (Joel Kinnaman) witnesses a murder carried out by the son of Jimmy's former boss and childhood friend Shawn McGuire (Ed Harris), Jimmy is forced to take on his former boss to ensure his son's survival. So, pretty much what you have come to expect from Neeson in this stage of his career, but unlike the mindless action dreck he has turned out in recent months, Run All Night at least tries to deliver an entertatining ride. Set in New York on Christmas Eve (no real reason given, »

'Run All Night' (2015) Movie Review
13 March 2015 8:43 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
Run All Night is the third outing for the now bonafide, 62-year-old action star Liam Neeson and director Jaume Collet-Serra. Previously you had Unknown or Non-Stop, and neither were exactly hits, though the latter's attempt at Hitchcock was certainly the better of the two. In a weird way Run All Night tops them both, but manages to do so thanks largely to performances, having much less to do with Brad Ingelsby's script as the reasoning for why the action takes place is rather ridiculous and each and every action sequence suffers some sort of set back, be it length or just a sheer lack of logic. The performances, however, allow the audience to overlook some of these issues, resulting in a movie that's more entertaining than it deserves to be. More than anything else, Run All Night is a tale of redemption. Neeson plays Jimmy Conlon, an ex-hitman who »

Box Office: ‘Cinderella’ Opens with $2.3 Million at Latenight Shows
13 March 2015 8:24 AM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
Disney’s live-action “Cinderella” is looking like it will be the belle of the box office, launching with an impressive $2.3 million at Thursday night preview showings in the U.S.
That’s significantly above the $2 million Thursday night result for the studio’s “Oz the Great and Powerful” from 2013 and last year’s “Big Hero 6″ with $1.4 million. It’s also well ahead of the $1.6 million preview total for Universal’s “Snow White and the Huntsman” when it opened in 2012.
“Cinderella,” starring Oscar winner Cate Blanchett as the evil stepmother and Lily James as the heroine, looks likely to open at around $60 million at 3,845 locations.
It’s the latest in Disney’s live-action fantasy movies, stretching back to “Alice in Wonderland” in 2010, which grossed over $1 billion worldwide. “Oz the Great and Powerful” took in nearly $500 million worldwide, and last year’s “Maleficent” cleared $758 million.
“Cinderella” is also launching with a »

Opening in theaters on Friday, March 13th is Run All Night. The action thriller stars Oscar nominees Liam Neeson and Ed Harris and is directed of Jaume Collet-Serra (Non-stop).
Brooklyn mobster and prolific hit man Jimmy Conlon (Neeson), once known as The Gravedigger, has seen better days. Longtime best friend of mob boss Shawn Maguire (Harris), Jimmy, now 55, is haunted by the sins of his past—as well as a dogged police detective (Vincent D’Onofrio) who’s been one step behind Jimmy for 30 years. Lately, it seems Jimmy’s only solace can be found at the bottom of a whiskey glass.
But when Jimmy’s estranged son, Mike (Joel Kinnaman), becomes a target, Jimmy must make a choice between the crime family he chose and the real family he abandoned long ago. With Mike on the run, Jimmy’s only penance for his past mistakes may be to keep »

Review: Liam Neeson can't keep dull action thriller 'Run All Night' on its feet
13 March 2015 4:45 AM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
Beloved serial killer John Taken is back for another heartwarming family adventure! I'm confused by the continuity on this series, though. I'm pretty sure this takes place after "Taken 2" and "Non-Stop," but before "Walk Among The Tombstones," and parallel to "Taken 3" and "Unknown." In this entry in the long-running hit series, John Taken (Liam Neeson) and his son Mike Taken (Joel Kinnaman) go head-to-head with the Red Skull (Ed Harris) after witnessing Red Skull Jr. (Boyd Holbrook) murdering some Armenian heroin smugglers. Plus Nick Nolte shows up for about five minutes, and I'm not 100% sure he knew he was in a movie. Here's the thing about Jaume Collet-Serra: he is just weird enough to stand out from the pack of fairly anonymous filmmakers who make studio level B-movies these days. There are a bunch of these guys, many of them graduates of the Luc Besson action factory, »
