Welcome to "Cinema Herald". My aim is to bring movie reviews to a somewhat different level. I don't know about you guys but I'm sick and tired of Critics who dissect a movie to bits. Who cares about all that deep stuff, sometimes you just want to know if you'll be entertained or not. Is it worth me spending $10? Now don't get me wrong, sometimes when we watch a movie, it does require us to put on our thinking caps and I'll do that from time to time depending on the film I review but for the most part, I just want to know if I'm going to have a laugh or a cry or even crap my pants - in other words, will it take my mind off the fact that I'm broke and my rent is due for a few hours? Movies are a public service...they are to help us escape for a few hours and forget that we're overworked and under paid.

Coming Soon: Going The Distance - Drew Barrymore (Trailer)

May 21st 2010 10:14
U.S. Release: August 27, 2010
Director: Nanette Burstein
Starring: Drew Barrymore, Justin Long

Justin Long and Drew Barrymore
Here's the official trailer for New Line Cinema's "Going The Distance". A look at the trials and tribulations of a long-distance relationship with Justin Long and Drew Barrymore.

Erin and Garrett are good together--even when they're apart. When aspiring journalist Erin moves to San Francisco to finish her last year of school, boyfriend Garrett, an assistant music scout, stays in Manhattan to pursue his ambitions and wait on that promotion he's been promised. With a webcam connection and frequent flier miles, the two gamely navigate the pitfalls and miscommunications of their bi-coastal romance, dodging bad advice from friends and some predatory singles who won't take "taken" for an answer. But when it seems their wait is almost over, Erin scores her dream job in California just as Garrett's career heats up in New York. The big breaks they've been hoping for could break them up for good--unless their love can truly go the distance.

This movie is a big debut for both the writer and director and was hailed as one of the most realistic scripts dealing with long-distance relationships.

Going the Distance is directed by up-and-coming filmmaker Nanette Burstein, who previously directed the hit documentaries On the Ropes, The Kid Stays in the Picture and American Teen.

The screenplay was written by first-time screenwriter Geoff LaTulippe and was included on the industry Black List a few years ago.

I love romantic comedies as long as they are not the overly cheesy variety - this one looks like a keeper - I just hope the best parts are not all in the trailer.

Drew Barrymore has established herself as quite the power-house actress of her generation who also has heavy duty producer credits under her production company Flower Films. I'm beginning to really admire her work. I never thought much of Justin Long until I saw him in He's Just Not That Into You. However his odd good-looks are turning heads in romantic leads, or perhaps it's the voice.

Looks like I'll have to drag my husband out for this "chick-flick", especially since we started out with a long distance relationship. We'll have to compare notes.
