The movie trailer of Grown Ups, the upcoming comedy movie directed by Dennid Dugan and starring Adam Sandler, has been released. Here it is:

GROWN UPS
Plot:
“Five friends and former teammates reunite years later to honor the passing of their childhood basketball coach. With their wives and kids in tow, they spend the Fourth of July holiday weekend together at the lake house where they celebrated their championship years earlier. Picking up where they left off, they discover why growing older doesn’t mean growing up.”

Falling from the rope was not very smart… And even if I feel sorry for him, I can’t keep myself from laughing!

The movie Grown Ups is starring Chris Rock, Kevin James, David Spade, Rob Schneider, Salma Hayek, Steve Buscemi, Maria Bello, Gary Busey and David Spade. It will be released on June 25, 2010.

Director Oren Peli, who brought us Paranormal Activity, is working on Area 51, an upcoming sci-fi horror movie that should take the best things that made Paranormal Activity a success and transpose them into the mysterious military base…

Plot:
“A group of teenagers stumble upon an area in the Nevada desert known for hosting an alien encounter.”

Two UFO nerds would manage to get inside Area 51 thanks to an insider and they would then get spooked (to death?) by a close encounter of the fourth kind (yep a real alien would somehow torment them)!

Like in Paranormal Activity, Area 51 is starring relatively unknown actors: Reid Warner, Darrin Bragg and Ben Rovner. And the whole thing would be filmed like a documentary. So another low budget movie that could potentially be a new blockbuster. We’ll keep the movie Area 51 on our watch list! The film should be released in 2010.

IGN had the chance to talk with Jordan Mechner the creator of Prince of Persia who also wrote the script of the movie:

Prince of Persia Jordan Mechner

I can’t imagine how happy Jordan Mechner must be! It all started with a small platform game in the 1980’s:

and it’s now adapted into a blockbuster movie: what a success story!

The American is an upcoming thriller movie directed by Anton Corbijn and starring George Clooney, Thekla Reuten, Bruce Altman and Violante Placido. Here below a first look at George Clooney in the American movie:

(Click on the picture to enlarge it.)

THE AMERICAN

Plot:
“Jack (George Clooney) is an artful assassin with a lengthy track record, constantly on the move and always watching his back. When an assignment goes wrong and a lover ends up dead, he vows that the next job will be his last.
This final obligation takes him to a picturesque town nestled amongst lush Italian hills, its historical piazzas bursting with life. But to Jack, every location is a trap and every person a potential threat. Still, he surprises himself, enjoying confessional conversations over Armagnac with an insightful priest and slipping into an affair with a local beauty. But by letting his guard down, Jack may be tempting fate.
A dangerous shadow-dweller shows every sign of closing in, and the mysterious woman who has hired him may not be all that she seems. As an increasingly wary Jack contemplates life, love and death in Italy, the film escalates into a climactic showdown through the cobbled maze of age-old alleyways. This sexy, suspenseful and intricate story blends intrigue and passionate romance within a searing morality tale to finally reveal the heart of this deeply private man.”

I guess George Clooney isn’t a psychic soldier after all (see Men Who Stare at Goats)… He can’t really kill neither goats nor people just by staring at them, he still needs a gun to get the job done!

The American movie will be released in 2010.

Steve Carell and Tina Fey are teaming up in Date Night, an upcoming comedy movie directed by Shawn Levy. Here’s the official movie trailer of Date Night:

DATE NIGHT

These are the Fosters, this is their life…
And this is the night they’ll never forget!

One night can change your life!

Plot:
“Claire and Phil Foster are a suburban couple slogging through their daily lives and marriage. Even their ‘date nights’ of dinner and a movie have become routine. To reignite the marital spark, they visit a trendy Manhattan bistro, where a case of mistaken identity hurtles them through the city at breakneck speeds, into non-stop adventure. Remembering what made them so special together, Phil and Claire take on a couple of corrupt cops, a top-level mobster and a crazed cabbie as their date becomes a night they’ll never forget.”

The movie Date Night looks a funny and thrilling adventure through New York by night! Besides Tina Fey looks sweet: Steve Carell always manages to star in movies with beautiful actresses!

The movie trailer of Extraordinary Measures, an upcoming drama movie starring Harrison Ford and Brendan Fraser, has been released:

EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES

Inspired by a true story

They had everything to lose, so they risked it all.

Don’t hope for a miracle: make one!

Plot:
“John Crowley (Brendan Fraser) has finally begun to taste success in corporate America. Supported by his wife Aileen (Keri Russell) and their three children, John is on the fast track. But just as his career is taking off, Crowley’s two youngest children, Megan and Patrick, are diagnosed with a fatal disease. Crowley who does not want to give up decides then to team up with a brilliant, but unappreciated and unconventional scientist, Dr. Robert Stonehill (Harrison Ford). Together they form a bio-tech company focused on developing a life-saving drug. One driven to prove himself and his theories, the other by a chance to save his children, this unlikely alliance eventually develops into mutual respect as they battle the medical and business establishments in a fight against the system – and time.
The fate of John’s children is at stake.”

I’d say that Extraordinary Measures is like the movie Taken: it’s about a father who’s ready to anything to save his children, just that the enemy here is a nasty genetic disorder. I think Extraordinary Measures will be a quite interesting movie. And if lucky, it will make more people aware that we need to fund research to fight against those genetic disorders!
