The Informers has an all-star cast, the cult pedigree of Bret Easton Ellis’ source material and the dubious distinction of being the last film Brad Renfro appeared in before his overdose death last year.

But does the price of admission score you more than multiple minutes of Amber Heard’s nudity?

We are!

Author Bret Easton Ellis has announced he’s working on a sequel to his iconic 80s novel turned cult classic film Less Than Zero. The book, titled Imperial Bedrooms, is expected to be released in May 2010 and Bret says he’d like to see a reunited cast in a second film adaptation.

We should have heeded the warnings!

We were told by NUMEROUS sources that The Informers, adapted by Bret Easton Ellis from his novel and directed by Gregor Jordan (Buffalo Soldiers), was absolutely terrible.

For some twisted, sadistic reason, we thought we need to come to that decision on our own.

We have no one to blame but ourself.

The Informers is about what everything Bret Easton Ellis writes is about: yuppies, drugs, promiscuous sex, disconnection, blah blah blah.

American Psycho, the subversively sexy Christian Bale serial killer cult classic, is heading to Broadway as a musical. How awesome would it be if Christian came back and starred in it? Who else could possibly deliver as Patrick Bateman quite like Bale?

We can see it now: Dancing girls in body bags high-kick while a half-naked, blood-soaked psychopath runs around on stage with a chainsaw singing “I’m going to kill you!”

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
