In a Hitchcock-like state of affairs, Paul Bettany is an Interpol agent hunting down a master criminal who he's mistaken for Johnny Depp in The Tourist. The reason he believes Depp's character, Frank, an American math teacher on vacation in Italy, is Alexander Pearce, a man wanted in fourteen countries, is because Angelina Jolie has chosen him as a companion on a train -- and her series of manipulations are designed to confuse those following her about who Frank really is. Bettany reveals some of the hidden reasons behind the hunt, and what he has next in store.

Given the political climate, it’s a wonder that “Creation” was greenlit. It is after all the story of how Charles Darwin came to write “On The Origin of the Species,” which, alongside Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, marks one of mankinds’ greatest leaps forward in understanding who we are and where we came from.
Sadly, there are still a sizable number of often loud people who believe the earth was created in seven days, that humans walked with dinosaurs, and the fact that we descended from apes is just poppycock. There is at least one state where creationism -- that’s you Kansas -- must be taught as a legitimate theory along side evolution.
(Presumably, even fundamentalists now concede that Galileo was correct: the earth revolves around the sun; not vice versa.)
But beyond that it received a go-ahead, it is surprising that a film so imaginatively produced, so well written, so excellently acted, didn’t do better. Or perhaps these two situations are related. Can you do well even if you don’t play in Kansas?Given the political climate, it’s a wonder that “Creation” was... more

If you weren't convinced you had to see this remake of The Prophecy Legion, then maybe this Angel-on-Angel fight between Paul Bettany ("Michael") and Kevin Durand ("Gabriel") in a shitty diner will do nothing to change your mind.
Except prove that Angels are secretly bulletproof. And to never bring a machine gun to a mace fight.
But my headline doesn't lie folks:

With advocates of Creationism a formidable force to this day, consider the plight of Charles Darwin, whose “On the Origin of Species” in 1859 established him -- according to one character in the film “Creation” -- as the man who killed God. While his landmark book on the theories of evolution and natural selection are now taken as gospel -- so to speak -- Darwin’s personal affairs and private dilemmas are less widely known.
Director Jon Amiel’s feature is a handsome and finely nuanced examination of the British scientist’s struggle to formulate his greatest work, while still honoring his deeply devout wife and confronting his grief over the death of his beloved eldest daughter.With advocates of Creationism a formidable force to this day, consider the plight of... more

Just in case you thought writing On the Origin of Species was a walk in the park for Charles Darwin, think again. According to the new movie Creation, it turns out that the renowned naturalist encountered more than a few stumbling blocks in the course of drafting the book that would establish the concept of evolution. Not only was he wracked with chronic illness, he was also concerned with how his work would fly in the face of religious doctrine and consumed with guilt over the death of his daughter Anne.
Imagine now if, on top of all of that, Darwin had regularly ducked into a movie theater and gotten a gander at the collection of hitherto-unknown life forms featured in movies. The ones that seem to defy several, if not all, the aspects of his theories. At best, their revelations would've thrown a monkey wrench into the writing process. At worst, they might've compelled the man to forsake his work in favor of a lifetime collecting decorative thimbles.
Fortunately for all our sakes, Darwin remained blissfully unaware of these rarefied beasts. But that doesn't mean we can't take a good look at 'em and see what havoc they might have wreaked in established science in "10 Creatures that Would Have Stumped Darwin:"
