Foxcatcher Movie Review

Stars:
Channing Tatum
Mark Ruffalo
Steve Carell


Foxcatcher is based on true events that took place during the late 1980s. Olympic wrestlers/brothers, Dave and Mark Schultz, are recruited by eccentric millionaire John Du Pont to form the next official U.S.A Olympic wrestling team.

However, it quickly becomes clear that Du Pont is less interested in the sport of wrestling and more interested in impressing his aging mother. Thus, he allows his insecurities to get the best of him and takes out his frustrations on Mark and Dave.

All three actors give powerful performances throughout each scene. All of which leads up to a very dramatic conclusion.

On a scale of 1 tamale to 10 tamales I give Foxcatcher a solid 8.5 tamales.

Channing Tatum Ready to Be Gambit (X-Men)


Channing Tatum has confirmed via an AMA on Reddit that he will be taking on the role of X-Men character Gambit.

The Gambit solo film is set to be released on October 7, 2016. It will be directed by Rupert Wyatt (Rise of the Planet of the Apes).

"We finally found someone that I really do believe wants to make Gambit." Tatum said of Wyatt.

With a screenplay by Josh Zetumer  (RoboCop), Gambit will be produced by Tatum and his creative partner Reid Carolin.

Gambit will NOT appear in X-Men: Apocalypse, opening May 27, 2016.

What do you think? Do you think Channing Tatum can play a convincing enough Gambit?

I think he's got a 50/50 chance of pulling it off. We shall wait and see.
