Twenty One Films for 2011
Can 2011 bring more to the table than 2010 did in terms of exciting, quality, thrilling audience attractions at the movies? 2010 was a year that bought us a few gems in mainstream cinema with films such as Nolan’s ‘Inception’, Pixar’s ‘Toy Story 3’, and Fincher’s Facebook pic ‘The Social Network’ pleasing critics and audiences alike, but largely mainstream films underwhelmed, suffering from some kind of ‘Avatar’ hangover. No surprise revenue from movies in the US was down last year, despite ticket price rises.
The 2010 summer was lacking any real punch with the likes of 'Robin Hood’, ‘Sex and the City 2’, ‘The Last Airbender’, ‘Prince of Persia’, and ‘Iron Man 2’ leading what was a very mediocre summer season. No need to worry though as 2011 appears to be real treat. On paper 2011 looks like a year to be more excited about in comparison. The alien invasion and super hero genres will be in full swing this year, while sequels will yet again be a common theme in the multiplexes. Familiar well loved characters Jack Sparrow, Sherlock Holmes, Harry Potter, Ethan Hunt and Optimus Prime will return to the screen, while new faces including; Tintin, Captain America, Thor, Green Lantern, and Paul the alien will hope to gain similar affection this year.
Here is a 2011 preview to whet your appetite for movies this year;
NEW BLOOD & THE REST
Water for Elephants
Francis Lawrence’s circus drama ‘Water for Elephants’ is a period piece based on the Sara Gruen novel, with a slight ‘Benjamin Button’ feel to it. The plot centres on a veterinary student (Robert Pattinson) who abandons his studies after his parents are killed to join a travelling circus as a vet. It stars Robert Pattinson, Reese Witherspoon, and the brilliant Christoph Waltz in his first film following his award winning performance in ‘Inglorious Basterds’. Find out more
