Reggy's Snakes on a Plane Review:
Hi guys, I've posted a Dutch review of Snakes on a Plane for my readers from the Low Lands, I couldn't find the time
to write an English version. For those who can read Dutch, click on the pic to check out my review! For those who aren't
familiar with our weird-sounding language or simply don't want to waste time reading my stupid reviews, here's a short version:
Snakes on a Plane is a big budget B-Film, sometimes hard to watch but in the end pretty entertaining. 2.5 stars. I'll be back with a new update this weekend.

Newsflash:
Hi guys, here's another quick rundown of the latest movie news!:
Fast and the Furious director Rob Cohen will helm the prison thriller Scared Straight. The film centers on a governor's teenage son who is sent to prison as part of a crime-prevention program, but of course, things are going terribly wrong. "It's going to be a sophisticated, state-of-the-art prison, which of course will be its weakness," comments Cohen.
Jake Gyllenhaal will join Reese Witherspoon in the CIA thriller Rendition. Tsotsi's Gavin Hood will direct.
Colin Hanks and Selma Blair will star opposite Antonio Banderas and Meg Ryan in the indie film Homeland Security. The romantic comedy revolves around a young federal agent who finds himself spying on his mother and her new lover.

Mads Mikkelsen talks Casino Royale:
Mads Mikkelsen, who plays the new Bond villain in Casino Royale, talked about the 007 flick! Here's
what he had to say:
"...I think the villain is different and I think Bond is different. I think that everyone and the whole film is slightly different. It's still 'Bond.' It's still the badie, but it's 2006 now and it's more gritty, it's more realistic with less gadgets. There are still gadgets in there don't worry, but my villain isn't taking over the world. He's not a mad scientist. He's in it for the money and I think that's something that a lot of people can identify with. Having said that the whole film is different for 2006. Everything is thrown there.
Most of the preparation that I did for it was focusing on the poker game itself because a lot of the story is taking place at this casino. So we were rehearsing that over and over again, just the way to handle the cards, handle chips and make the scenes dramatic. So that was the major preparation."
