SlashFilm - Fri, 2017-02-10 11:00

Interview: ‘John Wick: Chapter Two’ Director Chad Stahelski Discusses the Man, the Myth, the Legend John Wick: Chapter 2 isn’t a sequel that delivers more of the same. There are familiarities, but it’s more like the same engine in a slightly bigger, more stylish, and more aggressive car.

These ‘Gods of Egypt’ Clips Are Absolutely Bonkers and Maybe Kind of Great?

SlashFilm - Thu, 2016-02-25 08:30

Gods of Egypt has looked like a disaster since those goofy character posters arrived so long ago and most of the trailers have looked downright bad. However, I’m starting to think that this isn’t an ordinary disaster. Oh, no.

SlashFilm - Sat, 2016-02-06 11:00

There’s a good chance it just might work. Watch the Gods of Egypt Super Bowl spot after the jump. By no means does this movie look like it’s going to blow everyone away.
