L eonardo Wilhelm DiCaprios parents hung a painting above his crib in the grotty 1970s East Hollywood neighborhood of Los Angeles when he was a baby. The painting wasnt an action shot of Peter Rabbit or Curious George. No, it was a reproduction of Dutch painter Hieronymus Boschs three-paneled Garden of Earthly Delights, a dystopian visual description of Eden being found and lost. It is one of DiCaprios earliest memories. You literally see Adam and Eve being given paradise, says DiCaprio, his blue eyes peering above sunglasses ina Miami Beach restaurant that has somehow worked SoHo into its name. Underneath the table he fidgets his feet in and out of canvas loafers. He drifts away for a moment. DiCaprio just finished shooting an interview for a -climate-change film hes making. (Original working title: Are We Fucked? ) Hes already been to India flood plains and the Antarctica polar cap, and now hes not far from Miami playgrounds where he once reputedly left a nightclub with every woman ...

Hard to watch, impossible to forget. Thats Beasts of No Nation, a grueling war story set in an unnamed African country.Idris Elba gives a powerhouse performance as the commandant, the warlord of a rebel army that trains children as soldiers. His new recruit is Agu (Ghanaian discovery Abraham Attah), a boy who saw his family slaughtered. His army indoctrination includes heroin (brown-brown), sexual abuse and killing with a machete. In adapting the novel by Nigerian-American author Uzodinma Iweala, writer-director Cary Joji Fukunaga ( True Detective , Season One) is unsparing in treating this timely, terrifying subject. Elba ( The Wire, Luther ) gives the commandant a lethal swagger and inklings of a buried conscience that make his brutality even scarier. The Oscar for Best Supporting Actor should have his name on it. But its the remarkable Attah, whose young face reflects a hellish journey, that makes this fierce movie a blazing, indelible achievement.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is set for release on June 22nd, 2018.

Oh, what a movie The Kitchen could have been. It seems impossible to screw up a crime thriller starring Melissa McCarthy, Tiffany Haddish and Elisabeth Moss as mob wives who turn the tables on the men who done them wrong. On paper, its a great idea to have Andrea Berloff, the Oscar-nominated co-writer of Straight Outta Compton, make her feature directing debut with this adaptation of DC Vertigo comic book series by writer Ollie Masters and artist Ming Doyle. Though the time is 1978 and the place is New Yorks Hells Kitchen then a garbage-strewn wasteland the cast of McCarthy and Haddish leads us to expect comic mayhem. But except for a stray smile or two, the laughs never come. The Kitchen is deadly serious and worse, deadly dull, even when it tries to act tough by laying on the violence and a heaping side of gore. Kathy Brennan (McCarthy), Ruby OCarroll (Haddish) and Claire Walsh (Moss) are left at mercy of the Irish mob when their husbands are sentenced to three years in the pen....

Portraying someone as iconic as Elton John on the big screen is a very difficult task, which is why everyone from Tom Hardy to Justin Timberlake was initially considered for the role in the upcoming biopic Rocketman until producers settled on Taron Egerton. It was a brilliant idea to have Taron play Elton, says Rocketman director Dexter Fletcher. Taron has a very innate, likable, vulnerable quality that not a lot of leading men easily find. For Taron, the challenge was finding the real person underneath the legend. Hes a very unusual character and he has a lot of contradictions, says Egerton. Hes both at once incredibly vulnerable and incredibly intimidating Theres a spark in him and you feel it when you meet him. Theres something and its not something you can define. Check out this video where Egerton and Fletcher discuss the creation of Rocketman along with scenes from the movie. Rocketman is in theaters May 31st.
