03.25.2013 | By Mariana Dussan |

Today in the twenty-first century the topic of homosexuality is still a hard pill to swallow for many, but imagine the same topic during the 80s under an oppressive government â€“ unthinkable.

Renate Costa, a young woman from Paraguay, attempts to search for the answers to questions about her uncle Rodolfo that have lingered in her mind for years, questions that lead her to unearth an unspoken and violent history of her country while under the regime of President Alfredo Stroessner.Â Read More

Check out the new "Iron Man 3" poster!

03.25.2013 | By Mariana Dussan |

What Latino doesn’t like a good superheroe movie!? So get ready for it … “Iron Man 3!” Now that you have stopped running around your house screaming from joy – we know, we are just as excited – here is a look at the poster which promotes the film’s IMAX release this May 3rd.

Although I do like the poster, I have to admit it’s a bit overwhelming. There is iron man flying in the background and iron man holding Gwyneth Paltrow in the foreground, there are also helicopters, Iron Man’s Coastal mansion on fire, sky, sea, Guy Pearce, Don Cheadly and Ben Kingsley. Definitely a bit too much, but I am glad to say they did leave some surprises for inside the theater, according to Deadline, the poster doesn’t preview any of the new characters. Read More

‘Oz The Great And Powerful’ Biggest Hit Of 2013!

03.18.2013 | By Karen Posada |

In its second week ‘Oz the Great and Powerful’ stays on top and becomes the biggest hit of 2013 with $42.2 million dollars and a total of $145 million dollars. The James Franco vehicle has proven to have more of a success domestically than internationally, showing Americans hold ‘The Wizard of Oz’ closer to their hearts.

Halle Berry’s ‘The Call’ opened at number two with $17.1 million dollars, which took everyone by surprise. This is one of Berry’s top three best debuts, that’s not saying much, but it’s not a bad number for Sony. Read More

Sofia Vergara to star with Jason Statham in "Heat"

03.13.2013 | By Mariana Dussan |

After Jason Statham worked with Latina Jennifer Lopez in “Parker” earlier this year, Statham will now work with another Latina, perhaps the biggest Latina of the moment in Sofia Vergara. There is no doubt that, slowly but surely, Sofia Vergara is taking over Hollywood. The Colombian model, TV hosts, comedian and actress will star in Robert Roriguez’s sequel to Machete – Machete Kills and is now in negotiations to play the female lead in the remake of the 1986 “Heat.”

The story revolves around Nick Escalante, played by Jason Statham, a compulsive gambler in Las Vegas that takes hired body guard positions in the streets in order to support his addiction. After his prostitute friend (Sofia Vergara) is brutally attacked by a merciless member of the mob, Escalante heads out for revenge. Read More

‘Oz the Great and Powerful’ best opening of 2013!

03.11.2013 | By Karen Posada |

‘Oz the Great and Powerful’ is not only number one with $80.3 million dollars, but it is also 2013’s highest opening, which are great news for the Disney film. There were many things pushing this movie forward, the fact that it’s derived from a classic, it has a well known hot cast and a respected director. Even if the film was a hit and miss with critics, audiences really seem to have enjoyed a trip back down the yellow brick road.

Last week’s number one ‘Jack the Giant Slayer’ plummeted to number two with $10 million dollars. This film on the other hand has been a disappointment in numbers not even reaching its production costs. Despite being a family film, it was no competition for ‘Oz’. Read More
