Here's my review for Bryan Singer's Jack the Giant Slayer starring Nicholas Hoult, EwanMcGregor, Ian McShane and Eleanor Tomlinson. The film is locally distrubuted by Warner Bros. Pictures Philippines and is now showing in all cinemas.
Yet again we are treated to another 'modern retelling' of classic fairy tales using big name stars, over-the-top VFX and quirk dialogue. We've already seen this in "Snow White and the Huntsman", "Hansel and Gretel Witch Hunters" and a host of other similar stuff. This movie however plays with the mythology and does so admittedly unlike the other two which really tried it's very best to do serious stuff.
Nicholas Hoult is promoting his “zombie romance” film called “Warm Bodies” and the star was asked about all of his other projects.
In an interview posted by Collider on Jan. 22, the “X-Men: First Class” star discusses his zombie role and the back story before moving to his next film “Jack the Giant Slayer,” which the actor says he’s seen a few bits.
”I’ve seen a few clips from it. It looks pretty impressive,” Hoult says before adding that the Giants have unique personalities and their ‘world” is “pretty spectacular.”
“Jack” is one of several “big budget films” for Hoult who then comments on “Mad Max: Fury Road” which wrapped for Hoult, director George Miller and his character Nux.
”It was fantastic. I mean, crazy. (seen nothing like it) the landscape, the vehicles, the stunts. George Miller is a fantastic director. I think it’s going to be a really cool film.”
