Due to TREMENDOUS public demand, 2:00 am show of F1: The Movie in Eros IMAX Mumbai; 100+ shows of Jurassic World: Rebirth added on Saturday

-
The first quarter of the year hasn’t been great for Hollywood but since May, its films have been excelling at the ticket window. Last week’s F1: The Movie is rock-steady at the box office despite screen-sharing issues and competition from new releases. There’s an insane demand to watch the film in IMAX due to which its shows ran with excellent occupancy even on the weekdays in the 33 IMAX centres of India. Looking at this response, the management of Eros IMAX in Mumbai have decided to play a post-midnight show. On Saturday and Sunday this week, a 2:05 am show of F1: The Movie was played in the South Mumbai standalone IMAX theatre. As per sources, the show was also played at the same time in the previous weekend. Despite the unearthly hour, the bookings have been great. When Bollywood Hungama had a look at the occupancy of the 2:05 am show of July 5 at 11:00 pm on July 5, more than 50% of the show was full and seats were filling fast. On the other hand, Jurassic World: Rebirth, which ...

He is better known as a debonaire habitué of sun-splashed Californian beauty spots and glamorous New York nightclubs, but a flurry of screenings and special events this month will focus attention on a sometimes overlooked aspect of Cary Grant’s life – his very modest roots in Bristol, England.

A preview of a biopic of Grant called Archie – with Jason Isaacs taking on the tough task of playing one of the most famous of all film stars – is being screened in Bristol ahead of its showing on ITVX, and a new guided walk through Grant’s former haunts in the West Country city is being launched.

The Portable Door review – Harry Potter-ish YA fantasy carried by hardworking cast

-
Jeffrey Walker’s adaptation of the young-adult fantasy novel retains its edge thanks to its performances, but gets stuck on the whole door thing Adapted from Tom Holt’s 2003 young-adult fantasy novel, this is a passable attempt at kickstarting a new Harry Potter-style franchise set in a fusty-quirky institution, dosed up with extra Gilliamesque grotesquery. Co-produced by the Jim Henson Company, the production design is poky and intense, and the cast – with Christoph Waltz and Sam Neill larking it up – give it their all. But amid all this clutter, it sometimes has trouble moving its story forward. The Portable Door has a nice conceit: the venerable London corporation of JW Wells & Co is responsible for engineering all the daily incidents of coincidence and serendipity that happen in urban life. Not that wet-behind-the-ears intern Paul Carpenter (Patrick Gibson), desperate for any gig, knows the company’s raison d’etre when he signs up. He appears to have no discernible talents wh...
