Up until now, most of us know Cobie Smulders as Robin Scherbatsky from "How I Met Your Mother," where she plays the sarcastic Canadian. She certainly takes a different turn in "The Avengers" as Maria Hill, the hard-as-nails former director of S.H.I.E.L.D. Smulders is as far...

Taking on the role of Bruce Banner/The Hulk is a risky venture, especially since past Hulks have crashed and burned on the big screen (not in a good way). In Joss Whedon's "The Avengers," however, Mark Ruffalo nearly takes over the film as Banner....

It was getting to the point where I was just plain sick of superhero movies.

Not the genre itself, but more the quality of these "blockbuster" superhero movies. They all had the same overacting, mind-numbing special effects, and A-listers at the helm, often miscast. (See: Edward Norton in The Incredible...

If you drive about four hours north of Toronto to the city of North Bay, Ontario, you can come across the coolest movie set ever. You may scoff, but we're talking about a Cold War-era NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) facility, in essence a nuclear fallout vault,...

With her otherworldly, ethereal look, Lily Cole ("The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus") is the perfect casting choice for Ernessa, the vampiric ghostly character in Mary Harron's "The Moth Diaries," which hits theaters in limited release this week. Cole's modelling experience also helps, as Ernessa...

Almost everybody swears.

I say "almost" only because I know a handful of older folks who replace swear words with classics like "Fiddlesticks!" or "Consarn it!" But when I turned a certain age, even my sweet mother started swearing in front of me, and when your mother swears, that makes...

By now, there is an infinite number of The Hunger Games reviews making the rounds. Many of them seek to find something (anything!) to sully the massive beast of a franchise that's literally taking over everything -- billboards, TV ad space, the internet, our brains.

Surely something so...

"The Hunger Games" may have already had its official premieres in the United States and the United Kingdom, but on Monday evening it's Canada's turn. Stars Josh Hutcherson (Peeta), Liam Hemsworth (Gale) and Canadian-born Alexander Ludwig (Cato) will all make their way...

So much has been written about Jennifer Lawrence and her sex appeal in 'The Hunger Games,' when really, we should be focusing on what the core audience of the franchise will be paying attention to: the male eye candy.

It turns out the two male leads,

On the heels of Kate Winslet's varied reactions to the re-release of "Titanic" in 3D (in one instance she said it was "weird" but "amazing" and in another she wanted to "turn it off," accompanied by many curse words), co-star

Thanks to the fine folks at Autoblog Canada and Moviehole, we have a photo of the car from the new production of "Mad Max: Fury Road."

Called the Gigahorse, it's said to be the "hero car" in "Mad Max: Fury Road." According to Autoblog...

We haven't seen Edward Furlong in a while -- not since the glory days of "Terminator 2," "American History X," and, to a lesser extent, "Detroit Rock City." Then, after that, he had bit parts here and there for several years, and then it seemed like...

I offer up an apology in advance to all of those people out there who love to see Taylor Kitsch without his shirt on. While I admit that, yes, he is a perfect physical specimen, he's not a model. He's an actor, and a good one at that....

Ewan McGregor in a romantic comedy? You're probably thinking: Well, this could end badly. The movie's title, "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen," probably doesn't quell your skepticism.

But the truth of the matter is "Salmon Fishing" is actually a delight, and leads McGregor and co-star Emily...

Amr Waked is used to being offered stereotypical Arabic roles, and he's had to turn down countless jobs because he didn't feel they portrayed the culture properly. Waked jumped at the chance, though, to play Sheikh Muhammed in "Salmon Fishing In The Yemen." The Sheikh is...

Nothing pays tribute to Canada -- or to the Canadian sport of hockey -- like a good ol' hockey movie.

'Goon,' which stars Canadian kids Jay Baruchel and Alison Pill (they're actually engaged to be married), is the perfect testament to the sport. Directed...

As amazing as it would be to see Begbie, Renton and Sick Boy continue their drug-induced "Trainspotting" adventures, Scottish leading man Ewan McGregor has unofficially nixed it -- he's never even seen a script for the hypothetical movie.

While doing press for the upcoming

It's incredibly difficult to jump from portraying a character so ingrained in society -- like Daniel Radcliffe's Harry Potter -- to a lesser-known character in a non-franchise movie. How does an actor shed that persona when he moves on to more artsy, less mainstream roles?

Daniel Radcliffe stars...

Muggles the world over were upset and dismayed by the lack of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2" Best Picture Oscar nomination this year, but it seems the film's star, Daniel Radcliffe, isn't that disappointed.

In Toronto promoting "The Woman...

Canadian films aren't all snow and hockey, though sometimes it feels that way.

In fact, you could say that Canada is undergoing a sort of cinematic Renaissance -- we're trying to break out of this mould, this image cast in ice, and emerge as one of the loudest, most righteous...
