26+ min ago (477+ words) For the Aussies gathering at a 1999 New Year's Y2K party in the comedic fantasy "One More Shot," this will truly be a night unlike any other " even if they won't remember it. For the shots that Emily Browning's Minnie swigs from a Mexican "Time Traveling Tequila" are indeed magical: Each shot takes her back to the start of the night! She realizes this gives her a bottle's worth of shots " to reset the course of her life. Minnie's odyssey might initially seem silly, a wild if weird kick. But starting over is always challenging and multiple starts can be funny one minute and serious the next. "Obviously it's very fun. But," Browning, 37, noted in a virtual interview, "I was nervous about how we were going to shoot it. Because it takes real skill (for Nicholas Clifford) as a director to juggle…...

Film fans like to lament, "they don't make them like they used to," specifically about the kinds of wry, life-affirming dramedies that director James L. Brooks perfected back in the 1980s and "90s, like "Terms of Endearment," "As Good as It Gets" and "Broadcast News." Films of that tone and character are rarer and rarer these days, so it's worth noting when a new one comes along. But as it turns out with Brooks' latest, the deeply strange "Ella McCay," he doesn't make them like he used to either. "Ella McCay" is a portrait of a lady on fire " from stress. The quirky, twitchy Ella (Emma Mackey, horrifically bewigged) is the youngest lieutenant governor in her state, an…...

2+ hour, 4+ min ago (758+ words) Fackham Hall is as unsubtle and unserious as its title suggests, two qualities essential for any spoof movie to be even halfway good. Following hot on the heels of The Naked Gun and attempting to profit shamelessly from Downton Abbey's popularity, is this comedy genre making a comeback? Perhaps, although Fackham Hall's hits and misses prove that parodying well requires a delicate balance. Its Monty Python inspirations are obvious, as is its five-person writing team, led by brothers Patrick and Jimmy Carr and their "original' idea. Fackham Hall has everything, comedy-wise " silliness, sight gags, slapstick, play on words and shock tactics " but is at its best when it's darkest or most truthful. "But we're the aristocracy, surely laws don't apply to us?' sniffs one character of the murder investigation at the heart of the film. That hits as hard as…...

Writer-director Param Gill's explosive political comedy Bad President - released quietly and without major backing - has transformed into a global word-of-mouth sensation. What makes its rise even more remarkable is the film's complicated history. When it first debuted during the final stretch of Donald Trump's first term, political pushback severely restricted its visibility. The film received limited promotion, reached few viewers, and eventually disappeared from public memory. Then, years later, everything changed. Trump's dramatic return to the presidency triggered a sudden, organic rediscovery of Gill's film. Without fresh marketing or re-release campaigns, Bad President began trending again, reconnecting with audiences who were now ready - perhaps eager - to revisit its satire. What…...

Speaking to Jimmy Kimmel on his titular show Wednesday, the former Late Show with David Letterman host joked about how people have begun to mistake him for 99-year-old Dick Van Dyke.
