Owen Wilson is the man in Drillbit Taylor. This movie is coming to Singapore next week. Warning spoilers!

Drillbit Taylor. It is as clunky and humorless as its title.

The best that can be said of it is that at times it feels like a poor man’s Superbad. Co-written by Seth Rogen, who co-wrote and starred in Superbad, Drillbit almost seems like an early incarnation, perhaps a rough draft, of that far more amusing and original comedy.

Its stars even look like younger versions of the high school seniors in Superbad. The chubby, frizzy-haired Ryan (Troy Gentile) is a mini Jonah Hill, the lanky and sweet Wade (Nate Hartley) could be the high school freshman Michael Cera, while the quirky ultra-nerd Emmit (David Dorfman) would no doubt mature into Christopher Mintz-Plasse, aka McLovin.

The much anticipated superhero movie is in Singapore. Will it falters like other Marvel’s franchise movies except for Spiderman ofcourse Well its been awhile since I last saw Downey in a movie so read on… Warning spoilers!

The best actor doesn’t always make for the best superhero movie, but Iron Man leaves no doubt that the right guy got the job. Robert Downey Jr., Hollywood poster boy for journeying to hell and back, brings the perfect mix of swagger and sensitivity to filthy-rich arms mogul-turned-righteous crusader Tony Stark – a character who, not coincidentally, journeys to hell and back.

So yes, the eagerly anticipated summer season kickoff spectacle is a triumph of casting. But it has more in its arsenal than Mr. Downey. It’s swift and witty, with visual and verbal humor that works on a fanboy level (gotta please the loyal customers) and, often enough, for the layman thrill-seeker. It deftly updates the Cold War politics of the classic Marvel comics for the post-9/11 age. The red-and-gold suit is sleek and – let’s just say it – very cool.

A great movie for your child, Nim’s Island is on our screens this week. With loveable characters and wonderful cast. A moving story for the family. Warning spoilers!

Depending on which trailer you watch, you might get the idea that Nim’s Island is a star vehicle for Jodie Foster, Gerard Butler or Abigail Breslin. And even after seeing the movie, that’s a hard question to answer, considering the actors each spend a majority of the movie separated from each other.

Still, the film is owned by Abigail Breslin, who steals the show from both of her elder, more experienced co-stars. And this makes sense because she’s the title character.
