Every so often, a film comes along without much of a “heads up” through a trailer or really even festival buzz, and absolutely punches you square in the gut. Maybe it is an exciting new filmmaker making his or her debut, or there is a revelatory lead performance from an actor you’re not well versed in. And sometimes it’s both, and so very much more.
That is the case with the new political thriller The Long Night of Francisco Sanctis. The directing debut of co-directors Andrea Testa and Francisco Marquez, the film sends the viewer back to 1977 in Argentina, where the country is under oppressive junta rule. Taking a decidedly intimate approach to engrossing the viewer in this brutal regime and its effects on the larger country, the film focuses entirely on one man, the titular Sanctis. A simple, unassuming man going about his life with wife Angelica (Laura Paredes) and two children,...

Nickelodeon has given a 13-episode order to superhero family comedy pilot The Thundermans. As part of the pickup, the network has recast one of the two leads, with Jack Griffo replacing Tyler Peterson who played the part in the pilot. Created by Jed Spingarn, the show is about The Thundermans, a typical suburban family that happens to have astounding superpowers. At the center of the action are the 14-year-old Thunderman twins (Griffo, Kira Kosarin), who share the same bathroom, the same school, and the same annoying little siblings. Their only difference? The sister is a super student with a super sunny disposition who super looks forward to being a superhero someday, and her twin brother is a super villain. Rosa Blasi and Chris Tallman play the parents; Diego Velazquez and Addison Riecke also co-star. This marks the third pilot from Nickelodeon’s most recent batch of pilots to get a series order,...

The PureMovies.co.uk review of Tom Vaughan's Extraordinary Measures (starring Brendan Fraser, Harrison Ford, Keri Russell, Meredith Droeger and Diego Velazquez). Something of a personally-driven project for co-producer Harrison Ford after he read the Pulitzer Prize-winning book upon which this true-ish movie is based, Extraordinary Measures is about the quest to find a cure for the fatal neurological disorder Pompe Disease. Pharmaceuticals executive John Crowley (played here by Brendan Fraser) is flying high in his career, but his and his wife’s lives are turned upside down by the fact that his two younger children are afflicted by this rare genetic disorder, which normally results in death before the age of ten...

Extraordinary Measures is a 4-h movie. It is about Hope, Health, Happiness and Helping. It is one of those feel good movies that make you appreciate what a few good people can accomplish when their hearts are in the right place. The fact it is based on a true story adds to the enjoyment of the film as you don't have to waste time scoffing at the unreality of it all. The story focuses on John and Aileen Crowley (Brendan Fraser and Keri Russell) who are the parents of three children. The oldest is perfectly healthy but the younger two are afflicted with Pome's Disease, a neuromuscular ailment that is usually fatal within the first eight years of life. Megan (Meredith Droeger) is the middle child and Patrick (Diego Velazquez) is the youngest. Megan is eight years old at the...

Chicago – A very subdued and scientific Harrison Ford recently spoke with HollywoodChicago.com and two other Chicago film critics on the subject of his new true-story film “Extraordinary Measures”. Ford stars in the film and served as its executive producer since inception.
At one point in our interview, the 67-year-old Chicago native calmly uttered a minor expletive and then reminded us that we have the choice about whether or not to print it. While the interview style of some actors can fall into the more eccentric bucket, the Ford experience on this day was decidedly professional, conservative and relatively serious.

By Susan Granger - If this reminds you of a TV-disease-of-the-week tearjerker, that's because it's the first theatrical release from CBS Films, a division of the broadcast network that seems to be testing whether audiences will pay for cable-caliber melodramas at the box-office.
John Crowley (Brendan Fraser) is a pharmaceutical executive at Bristol-Myers Squibb. He and his wife Aileen (Keri Russell), have three children. Their oldest son (Sam M. Hall) is fine, but their two younger children, eight year-old Megan (Meredith Droeger), and six year-old Patrick (Diego Velazquez), suffer from a rare, genetic form of muscular dystrophy called Pompe's disease. They live on respirators and in wheelchairs. Medicine offers no treatment and no cure."Extraordinary Measures" (CBS Films)

Whenever you have a movie that's based on a true story and is about the brave battle against some horrible disease, a large portion of the audience will be inspired and moved, no matter how brutally awful the movie is. And stepping up to critique the art of a bad movie inevitably sounds a little like critiquing the real-life heroes. This is never the case. I wouldn't take back the deeds of the real-life John Crowley for anything. But I imagine that his real-life battles amounted to not much more than a series of phone calls, meetings and conversations, none of which make for a very interesting movie. So for the new Extraordinary Measures, screenwriter Robert Nelson Jacobs and director Tom Vaughan (What Happens in Vegas) throw in a whole bunch of fictionalized arguments, chases and grand gestures to make it play more like a movie.
