For those hotly anticipating the newest offering from Neil Marshall, director of epic and nifty, blood hued cinema such as “Doomsday” and “Descent”, you will be thrilled to learn that “Centurion” has an official release date for at least you folks living in The United Kingdom.
“Centurion” looks gritty, realistic and smashing. It stars Michael Fassbender (Inglourious Basterds) and Dominic West (The Wire) in a story best described by this synopsis:
A splinter group of Roman soldiers fight for their lives behind enemy lines after their legion is decimated in a devastating guerrilla attack.
“Centurion” is going to hit theatres April 23rd. It looks like the North American release won’t be until the summer at least. Thanks QuietEarth for the heads up.
About the Author: endymion
Endy is a slightly mangy and gristly citizen of the Great White North. He loves movies big time. How big? In Canada, back in the old days in the ice city where he lived, there would just be one theatre that would be allowed to show any given movie. Some of these theatres were not the giganto-plex or mall theatres that we know and love today. No no, these were the kind of theatres where you had to wait Outside to see a movie. When a big moving picture would open in these single theatres, beaver pelt sporting fellas like Endy would have to wait outside in line for hours while fighting off the human hankering giant Polar Bear or packs of Endy knawing timber wolves. Endy is a dedicated movie watcher.
Otherwise, Endy loves him a good Moose jerky, football teams with manly names like the Steelers or Vikings and the thawing embrace of his fine German woman. All these things are good. But you know what is best.
