Christmas Movies 2010 – Guide 2

Tron Legacy
Starring: Joseph Kosinski
Director: Garrett Hedlund, Jeff Bridges, Bruce Boxleitner, Olivia Wilde, Beau Garrett, Michael Sheen

The ’82 Tron was ahead of its time. Now is that time. Sam Flynn (Hedlund), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (Bridges), looks into his father’s disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 20 years. Along with Kevin’s loyal confidant (Wilde), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous. So the movie, of course, looks spectacular. The weak link may be the villain, a ‘youthified’ cgi version of Jeff Bridges – so far it doesn’t look terribly convincing. Maybe that idea’s ahead of its time. Regardless, see it in IMAX, see it in 3D.

Yogi Bear
Starring: Dan Aykroyd (voice), Justin Timberlake (voice), Anna Faris, Tom Cavanagh
Director: Eric Brevig

Thanks to the success of Garfield and Alvin and the Chipmunks, we get this. A live action/cgi Yogi Bear movie. If you’re unfamiliar, Yogi is a non-man-eating bear operating as a thief in Jellystone Park, stealing people’s meals and causing massive property damage. He is assisted by a juvenile bear called Boo-Boo. Park Ranger Smith finds himself having to devote a large part of his working day to stopping the pair when he could have spent that time concentrating on conservation or putting out forest fires. Dan Ackroyd voices Yogi and, in a piece of casting I can’t quite process, Justin Timberlake is Boo Boo.

The Fighter
Starring: Christian Bale, Mark Wahlberg, Amy Adams
Director: David O. Russell

Wahlberg is reunited once again with the director of Three Kings and I Heart Huckabees, but this time he’s getting ultra-serious for this true story of a boxer in the 80s and the bad-influence brother who helps train him. The movie is being lined up as an Oscar contender and it’s about time Bale got some recognition. (P.S. Bale’s hair was deliberately shaved back to look balding for the role. I know I got worried for Batman when I first saw it.)
