On Wednesday April 2 2025, CBS broadcasts Hot Bench!

Rental Breakdown Season 11 Episode 113 Episode Summary

The upcoming episode of “Hot Bench,” titled “Rental Breakdown,” promises to deliver an engaging legal battle between two parties with conflicting claims. This episode will air on CBS, and viewers can expect a deep dive into the complexities of rental agreements and tenant responsibilities.

In this episode, the plaintiff argues that the defendant requested a rental listing and agreed to the associated fees. According to the plaintiff, a contract was signed, which should obligate the defendant to pay the fees. However, the defendant counters this claim, stating that no suitable tenant was found and that no lease was ultimately signed. This disagreement sets the stage for a heated discussion about the validity of the contract and the responsibilities of both parties.

As the judges on “Hot Bench” hear the evidence and witness the testimonies, they will analyze...

Before my screening of "Locked," director David Yarovesky made a surprise appearance to thank the press and the special guests in attendance, as this would be his first time watching the movie with a crowd outside of friends and colleagues. "When I started making this movie, I cannot tell you how many people said 'Oh cool, that's totally a streaming movie,' [...] so it's surreal because when you walk into an AMC and see it up on the screen like this, you don't know that it's a tiny indie movie." And he's right. "Locked" is the type of indie thriller that used to be a movie theater's bread and butter — low-budget/high-return seat-fillers like Kurt Russell's "Breakdown" or the Jeff Bridges and Tommy Lee Jones vehicle, "Blown Away" — that are now immediately dumped onto a streamer and lost to the void of algorithms. It's said often in the wake...

Kurt Russell was born on March 17, 1951, in the Los Angeles suburb of Thousand Oaks. He started acting at the age of 12 on various television programs. In the 1960s he was signed to a 10-year contract with Walt Disney, which led to his appearance in many of the Disney films of the era. According to the late Robert Osborne of TCM (via Wikipedia), he became the studio's top star of the 1970s.

Those Disney appearances did typecast Russell a bit and he would be stuck playing many roles that were somewhat wholesome in nature. He would turn that image around when director John Carpenter (fresh from the surprise blockbuster success of "Halloween") cast him in the lead role of Elvis Presley in a TV movie called "Elvis!" That television film was really the first time Russell was taken seriously as an actor and it earned him an Emmy nomination. Carpenter and...

Vidaamuyarchi Box Office: Massive Failure Compared To Valimai & Thunivu (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Ajith Kumar-led Vidaamuyarchi is on the verge of ending its theatrical run, and from today onwards, it’ll add negligible numbers to its tally. The film was expected to serve Thala a big comeback at the Indian box office, but in reality, it has turned out to be a massive failure. The latest Kollywood action thriller is his biggest flop compared to his post-pandemic releases. Let’s find out how much it earned domestically in three weeks!

Vidaamuyarchi completes three weeks in theatres

Thala Ajith’s latest outing completed its third week yesterday. The journey has been disappointing as after a good start, it witnessed a decline, and there was no recovery. It kickstarted its domestic journey by earning 27 crores. Afterward, the film kept falling and accumulated 73.75 crores in the 8-day extended opening week. It dropped by...

Vidaamuyarchi, starring Ajith Kumar, Trisha Krishnan, and Arjun Sarja in key roles, is all set for a disastrous conclusion. Released amid high hopes and expectations, the biggie has failed to earn big numbers, and at the Indian box office, it couldn’t even enter the 100-crore club. The film has come below the 10 lakh mark in the day-to-day collection, hinting at its last week in theatres. Keep reading for a detailed report of 20 days!

Drops below 10 lakh

On the third Monday, day 19, the Kollywood action thriller dropped below the 10 lakh mark for the first time. On Monday, it earned 7 lakh in India, followed by yesterday’s 5 lakh. One factor that resulted in such a decline during the third week was the sensational run of Pradeep Ranganathan’s Dragon. Since Dragon is likely to dominate during the second week,...

A remake that took two years to make couldn’t entertain its audience fully for more than two hours and managed to stay on the right lane only for half its runtime. “Vidaamuyarchi” (meaning: Perseverance) is a Tamil road action film starring Ajith Kumar as Arjun, Trisha Krishnan as Kayal, Arjun Sarja as Rakshith, Regina Cassandra as Deepika, and a mix of some Indian and Azerbaijani actors. Directed by Magizh Thirumeni, the film attempts to deliver a gripping action thriller but ends up diluting its core by focusing on unnecessary emotional baggage.

Arjun, the protagonist, was a charming man in his early days but has grown bitter over time. Kayal, once drawn to his presence and personality in their youth, was deeply in love with him. That was twelve years ago. Now, the once-happy couple is struggling with their marriage, on the verge of separation. Before the divorce, an unexpected...

March 17, 1951 was a great day in history, because that’s the day Kurt Vogel Russell entered the world. And while he would go on to become one of the biggest icons of the eighties and nineties, many folks don’t know that Russell started as a child star for The Walt Disney Company, even acting opposite his future life partner Goldie Hawn in The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band (1968) – although they wouldn’t get together until Russell ended up in another movie starring Goldie Hawn, Swing Shift (1984). From the sixties into the seventies, he starred in Disney flicks like The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes (1969), but as the studio’s movies started to flop and Russell got older, a change of pace was needed. Arguably, Russell’s career took off when he began working with director John Carpenter, with the first movie being 1979’s TV movie Elvis, but what...

Vidaamuyarchi Ott Release Update (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Vidaamuyarchi marks Ajith Kumar’s 62nd film, though it wasn’t originally planned as such. Initially, a project with director Vignesh Shivan was supposed to be his 62nd film, but after it didn’t materialize, Vidaamuyarchi was developed with a new script. The film was officially announced in May 2023.

A big-budget venture, Vidaamuyarchi was primarily shot in Azerbaijan, with some portions filmed in Thailand. The story is inspired by the 1997 Hollywood film Breakdown.

Now, Vidaamuyarchi is set for its Ott release. Scroll down for full details, including the Ott release date, cast and crew, box office performance, and more.

Vidaamuyarchi, starring Ajith Kumar, Trisha Krishnan, and Arjun Sarja, is a colossal disappointment. Within a couple of weeks, it has almost given up on its theatrical run. Yesterday, on the third Friday, the biggie crashed badly and earned less than 10 lakh. This very much clears that it will stay in theatres for just an ongoing week and won’t add much value to the overall collection at the Indian box office.

Jennifer Love Hewitt Hollywood Interview (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Jennifer Love Hewitt is peeling back the curtain on Hollywood’s dark past, revealing the disturbing way she was sexualized as a teenager in the spotlight.

At just the tender age of 18, Hewitt rose to prominence after starring in the 1997 hit slasher film ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ and its sequel, ‘I Still Know What You Did Last Summer,’ but the attention she received was far from glamorous.

Instead of focusing on her talent, the media became obsessed with her looks, often reducing her to a “sex symbol” before she even understood what that meant.

Ajith Kumar’s new action thriller, Vidaamuyarchi, has made a notable comeback at the box office on its third day. As reported by Sacnilk, the film raked in around ₹14.62 crore on Saturday, which is a 42.63% increase compared to its Friday earnings.

It’s important to mention that Vidaamuyarchi is up against tough competition from Naga Chaitanya’s romantic film, Thandel, which has been doing quite well. Nevertheless, Vidaamuyarchi has managed to maintain its position and show a promising upward trajectory.

Vidaamuyarchi Movie Review (Photo Credit – Instagram)

What’s Good: Ajith’s performance, along with the rest of the star cast, is top-notch, action sequences and the background score elevate the essence, riveting plotline, no meandering sub-plots, and cinematography ticks the right boxes.

What’s Bad: The plot becomes predictable in the second half, and the climax could have been more engaging, further development of the characters of the main antagonists.

Loo Break: This one keeps you too hooked till the end, so we suggest the interval for that.

Watch or Not?: Thala Ajith’s fans, along with all the action enthusiasts, will definitely like this stylized, no-nonsense actioner.

Adapted from the 1997 American film Breakdown, superstar Thala Ajith’s actioner is more than just a crime drama.

The animated series Transformers Prime served as a fantastic reinvention of the franchise with its new, mature and yet faithful storytelling, complex characters, and fantastic action sequences. Set in a universe where the Autobots and Decepticons battle for the fate of Earth and Cybertron, the show masterfully blended personal stakes with the familiar large-scale warfare between Robots in Disguise. Its stunning animation and well-animated choreography brought each fight to life, showcasing the raw Cybertronian power and tactical brilliance of its iconic characters. These battles often carried emotional weight, with characters facing personal dilemmas or making sacrifices that built up for the bulk of the series' runtime.

From intense one-on-one duels to massive confrontations involving exciting alliances and underlying enemies, Transformers Prime delivered some of the most memorable fights in the entire franchise’s history.

Jennifer Love Hewitt discussed the wildly inappropriate comments some men would say to her after she appeared as a teenager in the classic horror film, I Know What You Did Last Summer. A loose adaptation of the late author Lois Duncan’s 1973 young adult novel of the same name, Hewitt portrayed Julie James in the 1997 film and its follow-up, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998). The actress spoke about dealing with those troubling sexual comments while appearing on Mayim Bialik's Breakdown podcast. Hewitt said:

"In my 30s, I sort of went back and looked at that time again, and I was like, 'Oh my god!' There were grown men talking to me at 16 about my breasts openly on a talk show — and people were laughing about it [...] Like, I really didn’t take that part of it in, but in hindsight, it was very strange to...

Jennifer Love Hewitt was the latest guest on Mayim Bialik’s “Breakdown” podcast (via US Weekly) and recalled how it wasn’t until she was in her thirties that she registered just how much the media sexualized her as a teenager. The actor got her breakthrough on titles “Party of Five” and “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” both of which were released to much fanfare when Hewitt was 16 to 18 years old.

“In my thirties, I went back and looked at that time again and I was like, ‘Oh my God’,” Hewitt said. “There were grown men talking to me at 16 about my breasts just openly on a talk show, and people were laughing about it. I don’t even remember that. I really didn’t take that part in, but in hindsight it was really strange I think to become a sex symbol sort of for people before...

In the late 90s, the ultimate “It girl” was Jennifer Love Hewitt. The actress started young in movies like Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit and House Arrest. She would then breakthrough with her role as Sarah in the successful Fox drama series Party of Five. That show led to movies like I Know What You Did Last Summer and Can’t Hardly Wait. She became a 90s sex symbol as she donned the cover of magazines, crossed over into the music business as a singer and became the spokesperson for Neutrogena skin care.

US Weekly reports that Hewitt recently appeared on the Breakdown podcast with fellow 90s child star, Mayim Bialik. The Party of Five star looked back at her time as a sex symbol and recalled,

In my 30s, I sort of went back and looked at that time again and I was like, ‘Oh my God.’ There...

Reading Time: 5 minutes

Jennifer Love Hewitt rose to fame in the late ’90s. That can be a bit of a mixed bag.

Though this has led to a lengthy career for the current 9-1-1 star, there were perhaps even more drawbacks to being a young, famous actress a quarter of a century ago than there are now.

Simply put, a lot of men are creeps towards teen girls. Back then, gross comments on her body were very normalized in the culture.

Hewitt is now a mom herself, and she’s had time to process how appalling the sexualization really was.

Jennifer Love Hewitt is looking back on some “mind blowing” comments she received after her star-making turn in I Know What You Did Last Summer.

Hewitt was 16 when she filmed the 1997 slasher hit, but the project’s success did not prepare her for the reactions she received from adults while promoting the movie.

The 45-year-old appeared on Mayim Bialik’s podcast Mayim Bialik’s Breakdown this week, where she discussed her experience.

“When I Know What You Did Last Summer came out, everybody said, ‘Oh, I know what your breasts did last summer,'” she recalled. “There were grown men talking to me at 16 about my breasts openly on a talk show — and people were laughing about it. It was a culture that was fully accepted. But when you sit and look at where we are now versus then, it is really mind blowing.”

Hewitt said she had actually forgotten...

Mayim Bialik is no longer affiliated with Jeopardy!, but would the former host be interested in hosting a different game show?

The Big Bang Theory actress addressed the question during a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

During her chat with the publication, the 49-year-old opened up about the prospect of hosting a different game show other than the popular weeknight quiz competition, Jeopardy!

When asked whether she’d consider such a gig, Mayim shared, “The time that I had on Jeopardy! was so sacred and so special, and I have such tremendous respect for our writers — obviously, my support of the writers’ strike showed that.”

“So, for me, that was a really special opportunity to be part of such an iconic show and such an iconic piece of game show history,” she added. “I feel very satisfied with my time there and miss it a lot. I loved being there.

Kurt Russell sure has an illustrious career.

Ask the man himself, though, and there's a trio of Kurt Russell gems that he thinks were massively overlooked.

The big three were selected during an interview with FilmInk when the actor was promoting "The Hateful Eight." After the eight-year gap between his then-fresh new collaboration with Quentin Tarantino, the duo's first pairing was just starting to get some love, as well.

After Thunivu, Ajith Kumar will be back in theaters with Vidaamuyarchi. The trailer for the action thriller has been launched, and it presents the superstar with a suave look. Matching his phenomenal on-screen presence is the ever-beautiful Trisha Krishnan.

The trailer starts with a relationship discord between Ajith and Trisha, with some heavy dialogue and marriages and relationships. But it very soon transitions into an action thriller with stylized and well-choreographed high-octane action scenes.

The action scenes in the trailer of Vidaamuyarchi, with Ajith locking horns with Arjun Sarja, are top-notch and promise a banger at the box office if all the cards are dealt intelligently.

Ahead of the opening of Gerard Butler's Den of Thieves 2: Pantera this coming weekend, another one of his films is currently climbing the streaming charts. Last Seen Alive, which was a massive box office and critical bomb in 2022, is at number two in the Max international streaming charts. This despite a truly horrendous score on Rotten Tomatoes.

The film has a respectable cast with Butler, Jaimie Alexander (Thor), Russell Hornsby (The Hate U Give), and Ethan Embry (Sweet Home Alabama), and was directed by Brian Goodman, mostly known for his acting. Last Seen Alive follows Will (Butler) as he searches for his soon-to-be ex-wife, Lisa (Alexander), who goes missing while at a gas station. As is typical with these types of films, Will finds himself up against the small town's criminal element, while also on the run from the authorities.

It debuted on Oct. 1, 2022 on Netflix, and became...

Director Lokesh Kanagaraj is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after filmmakers in Indian cinema. After working with stars like Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, and Thalapathy Vijay, he may soon collaborate with Ajith Kumar.

In a recent video shared by Manobala Vijayabalan on social media, the director, Lokesh Kanagaraj, discusses the possibility of working with Ak. In his response, the director says, “Like everyone else, I also want to work with Ak, sir, and hopefully, it will happen soon.”

The director had earlier expressed his hopes of making a movie with Ajith Kumar. With the actor yet to announce his future projects after Good Bad Ugly, it seems likely that Lokesh might team up with him soon.

Tamil superstar Ajith has been in the news following an update regarding his upcoming Tamil-language flick Vidaamuyarchi. Magizh Thirumeni is helming the movie, which also stars Trisha Krishnan, Arjun Sarja, and Regina Cassandra.

Recently, Thirumeni spoke to a leading news outlet regarding the film. He recounted when Ajith told him that he wanted to do something that would push them out of their comfort zones.

Adding further to the comment, the director also mentioned that he did not want to present something illogical. The audience is brilliant, and their intelligence should not be taken for granted by presenting illogical sequences.

Daily Box Office Breakdown Of Ajay Devgn-Led Singham Again (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Singham Again, starring Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Arjun Kapoor in key roles, was a potential blockbuster but failed to make it big at the Indian box office. The decision to indulge in a big clash proved to be brutal, and the average content restricted it from displaying strong legs. As a result, the magnum opus wrapped up its theatrical run much below the expected collection. Let’s take a look at its daily breakdown!

The magnum opus was the fifth film in the Cop Universe and the third installment in the Singham franchise. It marked the reunion of Ajay and director Rohit Shetty after seven years, as they last worked together in 2017’s Golmaal Again. As Ajay and Rohit’s combination is known for delivering back-to-back box office winners over the years, expectations from this biggie were sky-high.

A 1997 Stephen King short story based on an Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode directed by the horror filmmaker is being adapted into a feature film. King has often pulled from various media in crafting his scariest, most memorable stories, often citing horror novelist H.P. Lovecraft as one of his most influential inspirations. King's best stories reflect what influences him, focusing on dark stories that are both realistic and supernatural. However, he's also pulled inspiration from other sources across the horror genre, with Hitchcock's influence palpable in the many dark stories across the writer's decades-long career.

Now, Deadline reports King's 1997 short story "Autopsy Room Four" is getting a feature film adaptation from writer and director Ranjeet S. Marwa and producer Jon Levin. Appearing in the short story collection Everything's Eventual, the story follows a man who wakes up to discover he's been trapped in an autopsy room. The story pulls inspiration...

A new feature film inspired by the works of prolific horror author Stephen King is on the way. Deadline reports today that King’s short story Autopsy Room Four is getting adapted by British director Ranjeet S. Marwa and veteran Hollywood exec Jon Levin (In the Tall Grass).

King himself has given the greenlight on the project, which will be written and directed by Marwa.

Autopsy Room Four will “delve into the mind of a man who, after a life-threatening accident, wakes up to find himself trapped in an autopsy room. As he confronts his own mortality, the story navigates themes of fear, survival, and the unknown.”

The short story itself was initially published in King’s Six Stories in 1997 and appeared in the anthology Robert Bloch’s Psychos later that year. In 2002, it was collected in King’s collection Everything’s Eventual.

Notably, this isn’t the first time the short story was adapated.
