Synopse:

David and Amy Sumner (James Marsden and Kate Bosworth), a Hollywood screenwriter and his actress wife, return to her small hometown in the deep South to prepare the family home for sale after her father’s death. Once there, tensions build in their marriage and old conflicts re-emerge with the locals, including Amy’s ex-boyfriend Charlie (Alexander Skarsgård), leading to a violent confrontation.

A new HQ still of Straw Dogs was added to the gallery.

This review was based on a May 27, 2010 test audience screening in Los Angeles and may not reflect what actually hits theaters once the film is released.

Straw Dogs is an extremely intense suspense thriller, The Shining meets Deliverance. While the first half of the film felt a bit slow at times, it was more than made up for in the latter half, keeping you on the edge of your seat until the very end. Overall, the film was well-directed and the performances were strong. The lines remained blurred about who was good and who was bad to the point that you didn’t always know who to root for. There was no clear cut villain on the whole, as no one character was completely and unquestionably likeable.

This post is probably going to be a bit like kicking a beehive. Every time we run an article about the upcoming Thor movie, starring Chris Hemsworth as the Norse god of Marvel comics and legend, there is a flurry of comments reiterating the fan opinion that Alexander Skarsgård should have been the one cast. And, in a small interview, he says he very nearly was, and that he auditioned quite a few times.

I know that they considered me for the part and I got, from what I understand, very close to getting it and that’s amazing because I know how many guys they look at for a part like that. I was very humbled by that. It was a great experience and you know you win some you lose some, of course I wanted to do that but…

Quite a few people also seemed to want him to do it. Commence your griping in the comments below. I’ll stay optimistic for Hemsworth because, really? It’s a summer blockbuster. If it isn’t great, it’ll hardly matter much at all in the long run. Skarsgård might have been great, but until I see footage demonstrating that Hemsworth is not, I’ll reserve judgment.
