Robots fascinate us, just think of a movie or book that looks at the nature of robotics and you’ll be able to come up with at least one. The Machine is a film that appears to focus on robots, and one of the main characters is in fact just that. Underneath this though is an interesting look at Artificial Intelligence and the question of when does a machine become classed as a living being?

With the UK and China stuck in a cold war where the race for technological supremacy is the key to gaining advantage two doctors are given the task to build an artificial intelligence capable of being self-aware. Vincent (Stephens) and Ava (Lotz) attempt to create this for the good of humanity,...

The Machine is being hailed as one of 2014's best sci-fi thrillers. Coming to U.K. theaters this March, the story, from director Caradog W. James, takes place in an impoverished world plunged deep into a Cold War with a new enemy. Britain's Ministry of Defense is on the brink of developing a game-changing weapon, as lead scientist Vincent McCarthy (Toby Stephens) provides the answer with his creation, The Machine.

We’ve got just over a week to wait for Danny Boyle’s Trance, and all that we’ve seen so far has our interest piqued for the psychological crime-thriller.

James McAvoy, Vincent Cassel, and Rosario Dawson take the lead here, making up an impressive leading trio. And after catching the first TV spot, MSN have debuted a new featurette, taking us behind the scenes of Boyle’s return behind the camera.

A fine art auctioneer mixed up with a gang joins forces with a hypnotherapist to recover a lost painting. As boundaries between desire, reality and hypnotic suggestion begin to blur the stakes rise faster than anyone could have anticipated.

Starring alongside McAvoy, Cassel, and Dawson will be Tuppence Middleton, Danny Sapani, Lee Nicholas Harris, and Wahab Sheikh.

Boyle is directing from a script co-written by Joe Ahearne (Apparitions) and John Hodge (Trainspotting), partly inspired by Ahearne’s 2001 TV movie of the same name.

Danny Boyle’s Trance is pretty much guaranteed to be awesome, and earns its place and then some amongst our must-see movies of the month.

The psychological crime-thriller stars James McAvoy, Vincent Cassel, and Rosario Dawson as the leading trio, and that’s definitely a cast we’re looking forward to seeing.

The latest red-band trailer debuted last month, giving us a brilliant new look at the film. And now Fox have released the first slightly more work-friendly TV spot ahead of its release in the Us in a few weeks’ time.

Boyle...

Danny Boyle’s Trance has fast become one of our most anticipated films of the spring, with a brilliant leading cast in James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson, and Vincent Cassel.

The first trailer landed earlier in the year, only serving to fuel our anticipation. And now Yahoo Movies have released a new red-band trailer. And as you can imagine, this one’s not suitable viewing for work.

“A fine art auctioneer mixed up with a gang joins forces with a hypnotherapist to recover a lost painting. As boundaries between desire, reality and hypnotic suggestion begin to blur the stakes rise faster than anyone could have anticipated.”

Danny Boyle’s Trance is fast becoming one of the spring’s most anticipated movies. The psychological crime-thriller marks the director’s eagerly-awaited return behind the camera for his first film since 127 Hours, and following his work directing the Opening Ceremony of the Summer Olympics last year.

The first trailer for the film landed earlier in the month. And since then, we’ve seen three teaser posters, with one for each of the leading trio in James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson, and most recently Vincent Cassel.

Now the first quad poster for the film has arrived, giving us another great look at the film. (Albeit with Cassel’s pose on the poster somewhat reminiscent of that of Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Rian Johnson’s Looper.)

Danny Boyle’s return to the big screen this spring with Trance has been building momentum and anticipation nicely in recent weeks.

We saw an excellent first trailer earlier in the month. And that’s since been followed with the first two teaser posters in a new set, with some great new taglines, adding to the intrigue surrounding the film.

Those first teasers gave us a look at James McAvoy and Rosario Dawson, and now Orange have (somewhat colour-appropriately) debuted the third in the set, with Vincent Cassel buried beneath the circles.

Danny Boyle makes his eagerly-anticipated return to the big screen this spring with Trance, following the time off he took to direct the Opening Ceremony of the Summer Olympics last year.

The New Year brought with it a rather brilliant first trailer, giving us a great first full look at the film.

And following it up was the first teaser poster, which launched a new set earlier in the week. Now Yahoo Movies have given us the second in the set, which sees the face of Rosario Dawson buried beneath the circles.

Danny Boyle’s Trance is fast becoming one of the most anticipated films of the spring. Coming off the back of directing the Opening Ceremony of last summer’s Olympics, we can’t wait to see what Boyle brings to the table on his return to the big screen.

We got a handful of great first-look images late last year. And the New Year brought with it the awesome first trailer. And now the first teaser poster has debuted over at Total Film, giving us the first in a new set of three.

Danny Boyle’s Trance is a film we’ve been looking forward to for a long time. The writer-director boarded the project back in May last year, following on from the Oscar-nominated 127 Hours.

Since then, Boyle has been involved with a staged production of Frankenstein, as well as directing the Opening Ceremony to this summer’s Olympics.

But with both now firmly behind him, we have Trance back in centre position. The release date has recently been set for March 2013 here in the UK, and now USA Today have given us the first images from the film.

Limited releases include The Devil's Double, The Guard, Good Neighbours, and the documentary Life in a Day.

Optimum Releasing have been kind enough to pass these three new TV spots our way for their awesome new movie, Attack the Block.

When I got to see Attack the Block at SXSW, people went crazy for it! This isn’t surprising now when you start to look at all the hype for the movie but at the time, the fact people went nuts over it was a big deal. SXSW was the place where people in America were going to see the movie for the first time and I’m sure that there were many people in the audience who were there to gauge reaction.

I captured the moment on video (you can watch it here) when director, Joe Cornish stood on stage alongside Edgar Wright who servers as Executive Producer on Attack the Block as he asked the audience what they thought of it and whether they thought a Us audience would understand the rather English jokes, humour and accents. The entire audience at the Alamo Drafthouse went crazy for it...

Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions (Spwa) announced today that it has acquired U.S. rights to Attack the Block written and directed by Joe Cornish. Screen Gems will distribute the highly regarded film which won the Midnight Feature Audience Award at this year's South By Southwest Film Festival.

When we first offered up the trailer for the Edgar Wright produced, Joe Cornish directed sci-fi thriller Attack the Block, our readers did not respond kindly.

Iconic comedian David Cros tells us all about his upcoming IFC series that finds Todd Margaret destroying London one bad life choice at a time

David Cross has a strange reputation. Some consider him abrasive and too hyper-intelligent for his own good. Even he acknowledges that he can be a supreme dick on the not-so-rare occasion. A man with no patience for the dulling of American, he's really not a bad guy at heart. He's a comedian after all. And very approachable when not being scrutinized about some of his more lofty career choices such as Alvin and the Chipmunks. Sometimes, people have a problem with his attitude simply because he never hides under a fake fa&#231ade. He's just a dude, and that authentic average Joe enthusiasm sometimes throws people for a loop.

Approach David Cross as an admirer and a fan, he's as cordial and polite as any...
