With Iron Man coming out tomorrow, there’s a good chance the unknown comedy Son of Rambow gets overlooked by movie-goers.

But it sounds like film critics think this would be a mistake on your part. Here’s what they have to say about the flick…

- Full of quirk, slapstick and dry British humor, Son of Rambow is a delight, but too often forgets to stay true to its heart… — E! Online

- The team who made The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy display plenty of whirligig energy, if not much control or lightness of touch… — Entertainment Weekly

- Son of Rambow evokes the rush of discovery that turns budding cinephiles into lifers — that delight in finding a film that seems to express or coalesce some inchoate yearning, including a yen to share… — Village Voice

- This is a joyous film. It’s about making friends, making movies and having a great time; a movie for anybody and everybody, especially those with a love of the ’80s… — IGN Movies

Star Trek director J.J. Abrams recently spoke to The Associated Press about what we can expect when the franchise is relaunched on May 8, 2009.

Here’s an excerpt from the interview:

“It was an opportunity to take what I think has been a maligned world — to sound crass, a franchise — and treat it in a way that made it something that I wanted to see.

“To take the characters, the thoughtfulness, the personalities, the sense of adventure, the idea of humanity working together, the sense of social commentary and innovation, all that stuff. To take it and apply it in a way that felt genuinely thrilling.”

October 24.

Teenagers around the globe already have this date circled, as it marks the premiere of High School Musical 3: Senior Year, the first in this Disney franchise to be released in theaters.

To amp up the excitement for Zac Efron and company, here’s that film’s poster:

With Iron Man coming out tomorrow, we’ve added 14 new quotes to our main Iron Man page. Go ahead and browse our complete collection of Iron Man quotes right now, checking out the following sample first:

Tony Stark: [reading the newspaper] Iron Man? That’s kinda catchy.

Virginia ‘Pepper’ Potts: What’s going on here?
Tony Stark: Let’s face it, this is not the worst thing you’ve ever caught me doing.

Virginia ‘Pepper’ Potts: I thought you were finished making weapons?
Tony Stark: This is a flight stabilizer and it’s perfectly harmless.

Tony Stark: I should be dead already… It must be for a reason… I just finally know… what I have to do…

Tony Stark: They say the best weapon is one you never have to fire. I prefer the weapon you only need to fire once. That’s how dad did it, that’s how America does it, and it’s worked out pretty well so far.

Is Made of Honor as tiresome as its plot suggests? Or as cheesy as its title suggests?

You can tell what our opinion of this Patrick Dempsey movie just from those opening sentences. But do critics around the country agree? Let’s find out…

- How do I loathe the soul-crushingly predictable Made of Honor? Let me count the ways… — Slant Magazine

- A strong opening, bursting with wit and vigour, gives way to a predictable, patronising and immensely lazy second half. Could have been so much more… — Empire Magazine

- An amusing, smartly cast romantic comedy told from a guy’s perspective… — The Hollywood Reporter

- Director Paul Weiland and the three (!) screenwriters it took to boil down thousands of bad movies into 101 minutes haven’t provided this one with a single original thought… — Village Voice

Opening the same weekend as Iron Man, Son of Rambow is unlikely to be crowned champion at the box office.

Still, the quirky comedy is receiving positive reviews from critics and may be worth a viewing. Here’s the trailer for it:

This would be a surprise bit of casting:

Jonah Hill is in early negotiations to costar opposite Shia LaBeouf in Transformers 2, according to a report in Entertainment Weekly.

Hill (Superbad, Forgetting Sarah Marshall) would provide the comic relief as a sidekick to Shia’s Sam Witwicky, likely portraying Sam’s college roommate. The sequel is set to begin shooting this summer.

For those that think the repairing of Tom Cruise’s public image is an impossible mission, they should consider the following rumor making the Internet rounds:

Cruise is set to be in another Mission: Impossible film, according to celebrity gossip maven Perez Hilton.

The actor - who is totally in love with Katie Holmes, in case you haven’t heard, is reportedly reconnecting with Viacom CEO Sumner Redstone for the film.

“Tom will make M:I 4 once Paramount greenlights the script. There will most definitely be another Mission: Impossible,” said a source.

Would you go see Mission: Impossible 4?

Great news, movie fans!

Ian McKellen will reprise the role of the Gandalf in the upcoming movies based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit.

Beloved filmmaker Guillermo del Toro is set to direct two films based on this book.

“Yes, it’s true,” McKellen said. “I spoke to Guillermo in the very room that Peter Jackson offered me the part and he confirmed that I would be reprising the role. Obviously, it’s not a part that you turn down, I loved playing Gandalf.”

The actor added:

“But as to how it’s going to work over two films and what’s going to happen on screen, well Guillermo has not got down to working out the major details yet - I can tell you it’s going to be amazing though.”
