- Title: Tower Heist
- IMDB: link
I’m a fan of heist flicks, but I’m not quite sure what to make from this first trailer of Brett Ratner‘s latest which stars Ben Stiller, Matthew Broderick, Michael Peña, Gabourey Sidibe and Casey Affleck as hotel employees who are defrauded out of their pensions by a billionaire (Alan Alda) now under house arrest in their hotel. Eddie Murphy co-stars as the thief they hire to help them get their money back. The trailer doesn’t fill me with a whole lot of confidence, but I did enjoy Ratner’s other attempt at a heist flick so I’m willing to give this one a shot. Tower Heist opens in theaters on November 4th.
The Spirit #16
- Title: The Spirit #16
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: David Hine
- Artist: Jean Paul Leon
DC Comics may be going through a turbulent period right now but that’s not stopping them from continuing to put out some pretty good work. I’ve been a fan of this latest version of The Spirit by David Hine, but I’ve got to say this issue just blew me away. It’s one of the best comics I’ve read all year.
The first half of the issue is presented entirely from Commissioner Dolan‘s perspective as he prepares to arrest The Spirit for a grizzly series of mob killings all of which lead back to the hero. The second-half of the comic involves The Spirit relating his investigation to bring the real killer to justice. For a comic that’s almost all flashbacks it’s a mighty fine read.
I’m also thrilled with the art by Jean Paul Leon who manages to spice up the pages with great artwork including quite a few panels Will Eisner would be proud of by working the title of the comic, and hero, seamlessly into every single page. Must-read.
