Review: Big Maria by Johnny Shaw
A Mysterious Review of …
Big Maria by Johnny Shaw.
Review summary: The characters in this comic crime caper are vividly drawn and range from the barely tolerable to the almost endearing, the storyline exciting if often rather less than credible. Reading a preview is strongly recommended before committing to a purchase, as the style and tone are set early … and will likely determine whether or not one will enjoy what follows.

Cinemystery: Carrie Remake Release Delayed to October
Fans of Stephen King's Carrie will have to wait a little longer to see the film's remake: Sony has announced that the release date is being moved from this March 15th to October 18th, 2013. In one respect, this makes sense, to position the film as a Halloween-appropriate thriller. In another, well, let's just say it's rarely a positive move to delay a film's release date without a good explanation as to why.
In this reimagining of the classic horror tale, Carrie White (Chloe Grace Moretz), a shy girl outcast by her peers and sheltered by her deeply religious mother (Julianne Moore), unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town after being pushed too far at her senior prom. Based on the best-selling novel by Stephen King (more details below), Carrie is directed by Kimberly Peirce with a screenplay by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa.
New Poster for Crime Thriller Parker
A new poster for the crime thriller Parker has been released by the studio (right; click for larger version). The tagline: "To get away clean, you have to play dirty."
Jason Statham stars as Parker, a professional thief, who lives by a personal code of ethics: Don't steal from people who can't afford it and don't hurt people who don't deserve it. But on his latest heist, his crew double crosses him, steals his stash, and leaves him for dead.
Determined to make sure they regret it, Parker tracks them to Palm Beach, playground of the rich and famous, where the crew is planning their biggest heist ever. Donning the disguise of a rich Texan, Parker takes on an unlikely partner, Leslie (Jennifer Lopez), a savvy insider, who's short on cash, but big on looks, smarts and ambition. Together, they devise a plan to hijack the score, take everyone down and get away clean.
Directed by Taylor Hackford from an adapted screenplay by John J. MacLaughlin, and based on the novel Flashfire by Richard Stark — more details on the book, below — Parker opens in theaters January 25th, 2013.
