Cinema Voyage - Michael Pearson

This blog is PRIMARILY about movies. Some dvd and some that are still in the theater. Also, links are provided on some movies if you decide you want to purchase it. Also, I write and read quite a bit. So, you may, from time to time see a book review here from an up-and-coming author or an interview with one. If you have a book that you have written, please don't hesitate to contact me if you want an unbiased opinion. I would be happy to read and review what you've written. We should value our creative people more.

Brothers Bloom

May 15th 2009 02:33

Rachel Weisz, Adrien Brody and Mark Ruffalo are an interesting mix for a crime comedy and for this reason, Brothers Bloom looks like it will be a lot of fun.

The world's greatest con men, the Brothers Bloom, have made a living from swindling millionaires with complex scenarios. Stephen (Ruffalo) and Bloom (Brody), and their sidekick Bang-Bang (Rinko Kikuchi) team up for one last job, conning an eccentric heiress (Weisz) by taking her on a tour of the world and relieving her of $2.5 million. Complications arise for Bloom and the team when he finds himeself falling for the beautiful heiress.

Directed by relative newcomer to the movie scene Rian Johnson, it is great to see that his screenplay has attracted some big names for the film. His previous film, the independent teen film Brick (2005) was shot in 19 days for just under $500,000. So I would hasten to guess that his budget for his follow up film is slightly more than his original full length feature.
