BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Watch the Trailer for Fury

The trailer for Brad Pitt's WWII tank movie has arrived.
Writer/director David Ayer has had it rough as of late. The creator of the highly-acclaimed End of Watch struck out big time with Arnold Schwarzenegger's Sabotage, but now the Oscar-winner is back with a look at the final year of WWII. He goes back in time for the goes back in time with the upcoming historical thriller Fury. The trailer, which can be viewed below, offers up a 300-esque showdown involving an American tank against hundreds of German soldiers.



In the trailer, we can see Ayer's trademark gritty style, but it's his writing that fans are most hopeful to witness. The story tells of Norman Ellison (Logan Lerman), who served under Sergeant Wardaddy’s (Brad Pitt) tank crew, as the team fights through the final bloddy days of the war. There seems to be a strong Band of Brothers theme occurring here as well. Ayer is no stranger to WWII films - he wrote U-571, which strayed away from facts in order to stack the odds against its protagonists. a popular theme for moviegoers.

With a release date set right in the heart of Oscar season, Sony Pictures is playing to the heartstrings of moviegoers and film critics, hoping Ayers's tale results in a nomination. Unfortunately, with said failures including Sabotage and Street Kings, we'll have to see if critics can be more forgiving to Ayer, who also wrote Fast and the Furious and Training Day.

The film also reminds us Saving Private Ryan, both in tone and scope, which also matches the few-vs.many plot behind the trailer. The cast includes several notworthy names including Michael Peña, Jon Bernthal, and a mustached Shia LaBeouf. Based on what we've seen so far, Fury is in a good position to steal some buzz heading into Oscar season.

Fury opens on November 14th, 2014.

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim
