Everyone enjoys a brief opening paragraph, so why don't we spend it listing all the things that "Dark Places," from director Gilles Paquet-Brenner ("Sarah's Key"), gets right. Its cast is undoubtedly committed, particularly a convincingly grimy Charlize Theron, and an enjoyably off-the-leash Chloe Grace Moretz, though it feels like they signed on to different films, and continued under that misapprehension all the way through shooting. Christina Hendricks is decent in a frumpy role that is sold from under her by the film's last-act twists.

Kids, dreams do come true. Among the movies we listed in the 20 Films We Hope To See At The 2015 Cannes Film Festival was George Miller's hugely anticipated "Mad Max: Fury Road." Now, our team on the Croisette knows which movie they'll be lining up for on the second day of the fest. Organizers have announced that the Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron, and Nicholas Hoult starring film will screen Out Of Competition on May 14th, one day before it opens worldwide.

A24 and DirecTV announced Friday that they have acquired all U.S.

After making a big splash at Comic-Con, delivering new posters (clickHere and a new a new trailer (clickHere) which set fandom on fire, Warner Bros. has released three more new photos from Mad Max: Fury Road. The first finds Mad Max (Tom Hardy) in slightly better days, when he could wander the apocalyptic landscape with his gun in hand. The second photo gives us a look at the muzzled Max as he breaks free from Nux's (Nicholas Hoult) chains, taking the mutant hostage.

A batch of new images have arrived online from Mad Max: Fury Road, starring Tom Hardy looking all heroic as the titular badass. As well as giving us another look at Hardy in action, the new images also introduce Nicholas Hoult's character Nux, a shaven-headed, white-faced horror who looks barely recognisable from good old Hank McCoy. There's also a glimpse of Charlize Theron's steely Furiosa, as well as a great shot of some of the assembled desert vehicles tearing across the sandy landscape.
