Not sure what you mean there. All the places that do the reviews are corporate identities, and part of the machine. I understand you may be upset by the slight negative spin on some of these reviews but I think you may be mixing things up with the last review done by THR, where the reporter got a quote by an exec at an opposing studio that painted Tarzan in a negative light.

War on Everyone is a small film, it poses no threat to the big studio films this year.

I'd love for WoE to get sterling reviews by everyone, but the reality is that just isn't the case. People will still see it, regardless.

I'm not upset that the HR didn't give WoE a sterling review, I just thought, "hmm Hollywood Reporter" when I saw the review, perhaps that's wrong but hey unless I have an intimate knowledge of an organisation, it's what I tend to do, put everyone under the one umbrella.

And an AS fan review

littlebulletsucker:

Okay so I just got back from watching War on Everyone and I loved it. It was incredibly funny and entertaining and Alex was brilliant. He looked amazing, then again he always does. He did such a good job, Michael Peña as well, they both were great. He did look a bit awkward in that dance scene like an adorable lumberjack but I still liked it. War on Everyone is in my opinion one of the best films Alex has done so far.

Thanks for the welcome and all the gifs Zola!! He really had fun in Berlin. I like those new jeans, he looks pretty good. Does anybody know when WOE goes on general release??

^ Hiya djuna As far as I'm aware no cinema release dates have been announced yet, neither have any further distribution rights been added since the announcement below was published by Reprisal Films. Hopefully the USA will be added to this list soon, WoE will be shown at the sxsw film festival in March

http://reprisalfilms.com/war_on_everyone/

Bankside Films is pleased to announce major territory pre-sales to Icon Films in the UK, Icon Film Distribution in Australia/New Zealand and to Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions for Latin America, Benelux, Spain, Portugal, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe and selected international territories.

If you follow the link you will also find links to WoE's other official sites

And yes, Alex does look very good in his new jeans and striped shirt

IMDb has the release date down as March 2016. Not sure how accurate that is.

 

[Zola24]

^ Oh Free, you got me all excited there, but I think imdb is including the prems as release dates! :wondering

 

[djuna1]

Thank you again Zola! I can't wait to see the movie. It's such a different role for Alex. Hopefully it will give him another opportunity to once again prove what a great actor he is.

^ yw I'm looking forward to seeing WoE so much too, more so than Tarzan actually. I'm sure Alex and Michael enjoyed their time together on set, as they obviously got on very well during the press conference, where it was easy to see the admiration and respect they have for each other. I'm also looking forward to seeing Alex allowed to go totally over the top with his acting, in the best Alan Rickman, rip, style. 'And call off Christmas' has to be one of my favourite movie quotes of all time

IMDb has the release date down as March 2016. Not sure how accurate that is.

If a movie is shown at festivals first, that goes as the initial release date. So for the US the release date is March, which is when SXSW is. It still has no US distributor.
It'll be interesting to see if the reviews there are any different from those at Berlin.
Having posted not as many reviews as I read (also partly as there weren't as many reviews as there were last year at Sundance for DOATG, at least it seems that way), they are mixed. Some really, really liked it, but I don't think anyone really hated it either.
I think after the almost overwhelming positive reviews of DOATG we've forgotten that even his indies before that didn't receive overwhelming positive reviews either. This one appears to be more mixed than Disconnect, et al, but his indies aren't for everyone's taste. He picks roles that interest him, and after that, what happens review-wise happens.
I'm still a bit surprised that I've not seen anything yet on a US distribution deal. The reviews were mixed, not bad, and it's not as if even overwhelmingly bad films at festivals haven't gotten distribution deals.

Halfway into the massive Berlin lineup, Variety critics (mostly) impressed so far with quality offerings from Jeff Nichols, Mia Hansen-Love and Andre Techine.

PETER DEBRUGE: I’ve gotta say, Guy, of all the festivals we cover during the year, none inspires me to spend my time indoors quite like the Berlinale, even if the movies are typically every bit as cold, grey and depressing as the weather. While it’s too early to generalize about the massive lineup before us, I’m actually quite keen on my competition viewings so far, most notably Jeff Nichols’ old-school “Midnight Special.” The Warner Bros. release was pushed back from its original November date, and Berlin was the one to benefit.
It’s not exactly an art film (more of a supernatural road movie, really), but it needs all the help it can get exposure-wise, since Michael Shannon isn’t quite the box office draw he deserves to be. That, plus John Michael McDonagh’s wicked funny wrong-cops comedy “War on Everyone,” which premiered in Panorama, remind me of the kind of movies studios famously don’t make anymore — which may as well be the subject of the wildly uneven Coen brothers opening film, “Hail, Caesar!”

Thanks for all the updates/reviews, ladies!

Monday (February 15, 2016) pap pics from the Daily Mail:

Alexa Chung goes make-up free as she holds hands with boyfriend Alexander Skarsgard on a low-key daytime date

They're rarely pictured out and about together but when they are Alexa Chung and boyfriend Alexander Skarsgard make sure to put on a sweet display.

And their latest day date was no exception as they were spotted holding hands after picking up coffee in Los Angeles, California, on Monday.

The British fashion icon unveiled her natural beauty as well as her lithe limbs during the outing as she decided to ditch every inch of make-up and slipped into a mini skirt.

Alexa, 32, showcased her naturally stunning good looks as her face was free from any sort of cosmetic product.

Her complexion was flawless with not a hint of a blemish in sight and it also boasted a healthy glow thanks to afternoons spent in the beating California sunshine.

The former Popworld presenter looked typically effortlessly stylish dressed in black separates which exposed much of her famously slim figure.

Alexa paraded her slim pins in a thigh-skimming suede skirt which was made from black suede, A-line in shape and button-down in style.

She teamed the piece with an equally simple grey vest top which exposed the whole length of her thin arms and a large proportion of her décolletage.

The British Vogue contributing editor tied a thick grey knitted jumper around her shoulders and added a burst of much-needed colour to her get-up with a pair of a red leather pumps.

She clutched the True Blood actor's hand as they sauntered around their local neighbourhood with him playing the perfect gent as he carried her wicker-basket handbag.

The couple - who first sparked romance rumours this time last year - look enarmoued with one another as they relished some quality time together.

It's rumoured the pair have fallen so hard for each other that they're on the brink of becoming engaged, according to Grazia magazine.

A source said: 'Alexa has told friends that [an English stately home] would be her dream wedding location – and now they are saying that they wouldn't be surprised if an engagement was on the way.

'Alexa's relationship with Alex is going great. That's why she was happy for him to meet her family – she would only ever introduce someone she was serious about to them.

[Santress]

^Yup, per ASO they're from February 9, 2016 not the 15th. The DailyFail gets it wrong as usual.
