This film stars Third Rock from the Sun's Joseph Gordon-Levitt, as high school gumshoe Brendan Frye, set at about the same time most Paracinema's readers were going to keggers.This movie much like Coen Brothers feature films has a very unique and quick paced dialogue. The thugs and gangsters of most crime fiction are replaced with high school thugs and weirdos, informants are bookworms, the femme-fatales are replaced with cheerleaders and ex-girlfriends. Much like old Film Noirs the camera work is top ...

G.I. Joe's Cobra Commander Will Be More Menacing and Twisted
FirstShowing.net — ... provided some enticing new details on what we can expect for the character that Joseph Gordon-Levitt will be playing. "As we see it, he's a very twisted character. As the backstory evolves, you discover why his personality [is like that]." The key to character lies in his past and we'll be seeing all of it. That Cobra Commander you might remember from the TV show might not exactly be the one we'll see on screen. ...

Joseph Gordon Levitt Says No to 'Akira'
Cinematical — One of my very first posts on Cinematical was on Leonardo DiCaprio's Akira remake -- and my inbox was flooded for days with cries of protest and racism. Hopefully, all of those readers will be pleased at the news that at least one Anglo-American is no longer associated with the production. Joseph Gordon-Levitt was caught by MTV at the Toronto Film Festival, where he blew off any and all suggestion that he was ever cast in the film. "That just goes to show what you can believe about what people write about movies. I love the ...

So far, the reception for Chatwin has been frosty at best. ...

"500 Days of Summer" – Teaser Trailer
Film Gecko — I can’t think of two people more suited for an offbeat romantic comedy than Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

I'm tempted to call it the perfect "romantic" comedy for guys -- but I guarantee that the ladies will love this movie too. Oh, and that Joseph Gordon-Levitt guy ... drop-dead pitch-perfect performance. It's a Cusack-ian role that JGL nails on every possible level. ...

Movie Review - 'Killshot'
Get The Big Picture — ... Killshot fails to the degree that it does because one character, Richie, a small-time crook played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, is so manic and unbelievable that everything else around him is poisoned. Gordon-Levitt is as much to blame as anyone else for not seeing how artificial this criminal really is, especially when he's played against a man of few words like Blackbird, the Native American hitman portrayed by Rourke. ...

Get The Big Picture — I had a chance to check out the new romantic dramedy 500 Days of Summer at the Phoenix Film Festival last week. You won't get a full review until this summer, but I loved it. It's up there with my favorite movies of the year so far. 500 Days stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel as Summer. Now does the title make a little more sense? The film is really well-written in a genre where that isn't always the case, and ...

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is the latest to join the cast and is taking on the role that would've been played by James Franco before he left due to a scheduling conflict.
