It's called ROCK OF AGES and based on the Broadway play of the same name. Of course now Cruise is being attached to a remake of THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN. But not anytime soon.

Hey, doesn't "reboot" actually mean to kick someone in the balls again? Because if it does, then yeah, I'd like them to reboot VAN HELSING.

we need to get away from the universal action/horror when the universal monsters are used.

Tom might not be necessarily bad. He was all right as Lestat, although not what I think anyone was picturing in the role. Anne Rice liked him, after all. But if the movie itself is all right, I don't think Tom will the one to sink it.Today I saw pict...

There is always the possibility that if the monsters are done properly that the movie may be good in spite of Tom Cruise.

I always thought VAN HELSING was an interesting idea (even a very good one), but poorly executed through bad writing- especially the "jokes" and hammy acting. Too bad. THIS movie looks to be a superturd that may make us long for the days of Sommer.

Boy, I remember just sitting in the theater and FUMING while I watched that artistic catastrophy of a so-called picture. Sadly there are some scattered moments that are good, leaving us to imagine the things that might have been. This is a...

VAN HELSING is one of the worst films I've ever seen, so it can only be an improvement. My biggest concern over this is not that a good VAN HELSING film couldn't be made, but comes from Tom Cruise in the title role; incredible mi...

Hugh is so much a better actor than Tom ever was. So one assumes its about old Tom fans still believing he has Boxoffice clout. Either that or its another Scientology try at saving a career.
