Man of Steel is the next one in a long row of reboots which shook the film industry in 2012-2013. Following the year after Marc Webb's The Amazing Spiderman - Zack Snyder's Man of Steel is the not just the next Superman franchise reboot – it is the great milestone in a history of entire world cinematograph. Produced by Christopher Nolan the creator of unparalleled Inception, Man of Steel tells the same story as his 25-years old predecessor but with enormous (even for 2013) budget around 200,000,000 USD. Filmed in Plano, Illinois the movie at the same time uses Chicago and Vancouver as backdrops. The huge budget mostly dictated by enchanting ensemble of the cast and incredible 3D which is reported to be much more sophisticated than everything you could watch before. In case of Man of Steel it's a venture without a risk: as the Superman is known to almost everyone on Earth, and there are three major target audiences that eager to watch it. First of all, it's new generation that heard of Superman a lot, and watched numerous TV series and spoofs. The second, there is the generation that remembers Ilya Salkind's Superman. And third one is the oldest audience, who have read DC comics itself and bring their children (second generation audience) to the cinema to show them first Superman movie. So we have there a winning marketing strategy combined with most advanced CGI as it is at 2013. What about the actors? Henry Cavill as Superman looks very hot, while his parents realistically depicted by Kevin Costner and Diane Lane (Jonathan and Martha Kent – Superman's Earthborn foster parents), Jor-El (a Superman's real father from Krypton) is portrayed by Russell Crowe. The epitome of the do-or-die female reporter, Lois Lane is played by Amy Adams, who may be familiar to you as Anna Brady form Leap Year and Charlene Fleming from The Fighter.

Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant is the next stage of the conquest of the bloodsuckers for multiplexes: here they appear not only as the part of current reality, but as completely safe and miserable creatures. And once it comes to that, their fanged characters have become the part of common world. The witty and funny Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant just lifts the curtain in their world. But if the adventures of Bella Swan still evoke the angst on the out-of-puberty fans, after watching The Vampire's Assistant all those adults will have quite a dreamy smile.

The Batman is a 2022 American superhero film based on the DC Comics character Batman. The film is a reboot of the Batman film franchise, directed by Matt Reeves, who wrote the screenplay with Peter Craig. Robert Pattinson stars as Bruce Wayne / Batman. The film also stars Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright, John Turturro, Peter Sarsgaard, Andy Serkis, and Colin Farrell. The film follows Batman, who has been fighting crime in Gotham City for two years, uncovering corruption while pursuing the Riddler, a serial killer who targets Gotham's elite. The film development began after Ben Affleck was cast as Batman in the DC Extended Universe in 2013. But Affleck dropped out and Reeves took over. Filming began in the United Kingdom in January 2020, but was halted by the COVID-19 pandemic and it resumed later in the year and concluded in Chicago in March 2021. The film was a commercial success, grossing over $770 million against a $185–200 million budget, received positive reviews from critics and it's intended to launch a Batman shared universe, with two sequels planned and two spin-off television series in development for HBO Max. In August 2013, Ben Affleck was cast as Bruce Wayne / Batman for multiple films in the DC Extended Universe. He made his debut in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), Suicide Squad (2016) and Justice League (2017). In October 2014, Warner Bros announced plans for a standalone Batman film starring Affleck, he was in negotiations to direct and co-write the screenplay with Geoff Johns by July 2015. But Affleck had reservations about directing the film and announced in January 2017 that he was stepping down as the director but still planned to star and produce. The film was put on hold due to the re-evaluation of Warner Bros approach to superhero films after the release of Batman v Superman. The film highlights that Batman's wealth does not alleviate his suffering and explores the idea that he should be more philanthropic. It also explores grief, trauma and the "horror" of living with post-traumatic stress disorder through Batman's character. The film also shows a different relationship between Batman and the police, with them viewing him as a criminal and a level of oversight they're not used to dealing with. This aspect of the film is considered "timely" given the contemporary American sociopolitical context including increased awareness of police brutality.

In a dark times of medieval China, when small feudal villages were faced the risk of plundering and burning to ashes by any band swindlers, a reckless blacksmith decides to defend his fellow villagers from attacking sons of gun. RZA, who is in charge of The Man with the Iron Fists, just for your interest – is a director, producer, writer and a leading role actor of the movie (like four in one), and of course he plays the Blacksmith, who is leading the villagers to the convincing and final victory of justice. The way he does it is an extraordinary one: he transforms the power of iron weapons, such as swords, spears and shields, in the power of living human body, his body, making him unbeatable. The authorship of this weird idea belongs to RZA (who may doubt?) and there are some rumors the nurtured this idea from 2005 year. Distributed by Universal Pictures, The Man with the Iron Fists despite its meager budget of $20 millions features quite a stellar cast: besides the abovementioned RZA, the movie starring: Russell Crowe, Lucy Liu, Jamie Chung, RZA, Dave Bautista, Pam Grier, Cung Le, Rick Yune, Osric Chau, Zhu Zhu, Chia Hui Liu, Daniel Wu, Celina Jade, Byron Mann, Dennis Chan (it's more likely that you know everyone from this list, may be exempt those who have Chinese surnames).

Irish author Jonathan Swift first published Gulliver's Travels in 1726, and it became an immediate sensation. Since then, Gulliver's Travels never has gone out-of-print, and its twenty-first century sales remain nearly as robust as they were in the sixteenth. Universally acknowledged as a classic of British literature, Swift's wonderwork scathingly satirizes human nature and parodies "travellers' tales." Not surprising, then, Hollywood has attempted to bring Gulliver's story to life on film in every decade since the medium was invented. Typically, the special effects have failed to keep pace with Swift's imagination. In the story's latest reprise, a slightly modernized version, the special effects are up to the challenge, but the question emerges, "Is Jack Black up to it?" Black has disappointed fans with his last couple of ventures, but critics say he looks "at ease" as he goes for "big" laughs in the land of the Lilliputians. The producers and director have built-in a few features to give Black a healthy bounce: Updating the story, they show Gulliver as a contemporary mailroom guy who finally catches a break, winning a travel-writing assignment in the Bermuda Triangle. 3D has gotta help the contrast between big Gulliver and little Lilliputians, and an all-star supporting cast is expected to bring out the best of Black's comic gifts.
