Exclusive: Writer-director Nicholas Arioli has wrapped on the New Mexico shoot for his debut feature, absurdist Western comedy The Stalemate, adding six to the cast. Newcomers include Jeremy Bobb (Them), three-time Emmy nominee Anthony Carrigan (Superman), Emmy nominee Paul Sparks (The Better Sister), Critics Choice nom Shea Whigham (American Primeval), Giorgia Whigham (Ted), and two-time Emmy winner Tony Hale (Opus).

Ben Foster, Manny Jacinto, and Fiona Shaw lead the cast, as we were first to tell you late last month. The film follows a robber (Jacinto) and sheriff (Foster) who, out of bullets and far from town, must negotiate their way out of an absurd, unending chase in the Old West.

Producers on The Stalemate include Molly Conners and Amanda Bowers of Phiphen, Andrew Bosworth of Warden Shortbow, and Cari Tuna. Exec producers are Richard J. Berthy, Jane Sinisi, Linda L. Berthy, Wilson Rivas and Alex Spatt of Phiphen, Serkan Piantino,...

As we head into the month of June, Peacock is inviting subscribers to enjoy a heavy dose of high-octane action, as the Jason Statham favorite, The Mechanic, is set for a streaming release. The title will fall in line with numerous other favorites on NBCUniversal’s platform beginning on June 1. This is the perfect opportunity for those who haven’t yet taken the dive into the Statham-led series of films to jump into the action and see what it’s all about. With a 54% critics’ approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s obvious that the movie was a divisive production upon its theatrical arrival in 2011, but given that it eventually received a sequel just a few years later, there’s certainly still plenty to love for the Statham fans out there.

In The Mechanic, Statham stars as Arthur Bishop, a professional hitman known as a “mechanic” who has the uncanny...

In terms of earnings, video games are the most significant source of entertainment worldwide, with millions and millions of fans. Which is a solid reason for Hollywood to think that if they make them into films, they will attract the same kind of audience and even though in the beginning it seemed like that they will never be able to make a good film based on video games but now it seems like they are getting the hang of things. We have compiled a list containing the names of the highest-grossing films based on video games, but just because they are in this and have earned a lot of money, doesn’t mean that all of them are good.

Which Filmmaker Was Initially Set To Direct Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible? ( Photo Credit – Wikimedia )

Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise is geared up for the release of his upcoming film Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. He reprises his role as the daredevil agent Ethan Hunt, and the film is all set to hit the big screens on May 17, 2025, in India and a week later in the US. Before that happens, let us take you to the first Mission: Impossible film, which came out in 1996. An interesting fact about the movie is that the Tom Cruise starrer was initially supposed to be directed by an Oscar-winning filmmaker, and it was not Brian De Palma.

The Oscar-Winner Who Almost Directed Mission: Impossible

The Academy Award-winning filmmaker who was first approached to direct the 1996 film Mission: Impossible was none other than Sydney Pollack. According to an earlier report by Variety, Sydney Pollack was...

Exploring How Leonardo DiCaprio Stayed Away From Superhero Roles! ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Leonardo DiCaprio has never been the type to chase trends or fall into the safety net of franchise films. From the start of his career, he stood apart, not just as another child actor trying to survive in the industry, but as someone with an almost obsessive commitment to understanding cinema. While most kids his age were busy with simpler things, he was digging into performances, studying the work of greats, and already showing the kind of intensity that would become his trademark.

Leonardo DiCaprio: A Career Defined By Taste

DiCaprio’s early roles in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape and The Basketball Diaries were impressive. They were indicators of a career that would only rise. The Oscar winner’s filmography reads like a highlight reel of modern cinema, with names like Martin Scorsese, Christopher Nolan, Steven Spielberg, and...

Hollywood Couple Love Timeline(Photo Credit –Facebook)

Everyone knows Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s history. The romance, the drama, the chaos, and everything in between are out in public like an open book. It’s been years since they have separated, and in December 2024, their divorce was finalized. Now that both of them have moved on in life, with Brad dating Ines de Ramon and Jolie focusing on her kids, let’s look at their relationship timeline for one last time.

Being one of the It couples of Hollywood, Jolie and Pitt met on the sets of Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2003 for the first time. Back at that time, the Hollywood hunk was already married to Jennifer Aniston, and the Eternals actress was a single mother. Their bond very smoothly transitioned into love that blossomed into marriage and ended up in divorce.

While looking back at their first meeting,...

All About Netflix’s Hidden Gem With A 100% Rotten Tomatoes Score!(Photo Credit –Netflix)

Leave No Trace has quietly resurfaced, now streaming across Netflix in multiple regions and appearing on other platforms. Even though it’s not a noisy blockbuster, the film has earned something louder than hype: unanimous praise.

Rotten Tomatoes, the watchful critic barometer, rarely hands out perfect scores, but here’s where this quiet, haunting story stands out. It’s one of the most-reviewed films to hold a pristine 100% rating, and that doesn’t happen often.

Leave No Trace: Life In The Margins

The film follows a father, Will, and his teenage daughter, Tom, tucked away from society in the dense woods on the outskirts of Portland, Oregon. Their life is quiet, self-sustaining, and seemingly untouched by the chaos beyond the trees, but the stillness cracks after a single misstep forces them into contact with a world they’ve long avoided.

Written and directed by Jason Buxton, “Sharp Corner” (2024) is a slow-burn thriller that shows Ben Foster as a man going through a midlife crisis. Based on Russell Wangersky’s short story, the film presents a rather familiar narrative since we have seen plenty of projects about a man breaking bad in some shape or form. What strikes out the most in Buxton’s film is Foster’s elaborate performance, which makes you sense his slightest emotion to the point you can almost feel his dread crawling down your skin. While it is empathetic, it is also self-aware. So, it becomes an acute portrait of this self-pitying man as it occasionally veers into darkly comedic territory.

Spoilers Ahead

Sharp Corner (2024) Plot Summary & Movie Synopsis:

“Sharp Corner” follows a married man getting increasingly paranoid by the constant accidents on the corner in front of his new home, which gets him farther and farther from his family.

While the halls of the multiplex are filled with the sounds of battling superheroes and video game icons and even some 1930s bloodsuckers, here comes a film that “identifies” as a thriller, though it’s really an insightful character study set during a family crisis. Plus, it’s a compelling showcase for one of our most gifted actors, who often brings “more to the plate’ in many recent action flicks. Oh, and he’s paired with an actress who’s best known for her work in a long-running TV sitcom. But she’s not eliciting laughs here as a young mother dealing with the slowly eroding sanity of her spouse, triggered by the purchase of their dream house that borders a road’s very dangerous Sharp Corner.

In the story’s opening moments, the McCall family, Papa Josh (Ben Foster), Mama Rachel (Cobie Smulders), and their adorable “moppet”, seven-year-old Max...

To watch “Sharp Corner” feels akin to witnessing a car crash in slow motion. There’s a bleak inevitability to the proceedings and a cruel voyeuristic streak to how we’re called to not look away.

The comparison is apt, of course, considering how central car accidents are to the tale of an even-keeled suburbanite who becomes needlessly obsessed with stopping (or at the very least helping) the inordinate number of crashes that happen at the treacherous corner street right in front of his new home. Led by an against-type performance from Ben Foster, writer-director Jason Buxton’s languidly paced psychological thriller about domesticity and masculinity may be handsomely mounted but ultimately strikes an all too hollow tone to land its kicker of a final shot.

The promise of a new house is the chance to make a home. That’s what Josh and Rachel (Foster and Cobie Smulders) hope...

Ben Foster is a man with mangling and mutilation on his mind in a new Collider-exclusive clip of the new thriller Sharp Corner. Cobie Smulders also stars in this adaptation of a Russell Wangersky short story, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last fall. The film, which was shot in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, is set to be released later this year.

In the clip, Foster (Hell or High Water) plays Josh McCall, a man who lives near the sharp corner of the title. It's spelled doom for a number of motorists, and as the clip demonstrates, that hasn't been good for Josh's mental health. He and his wife, Rachel, have some dinner guests over, but Josh can't stop himself from talking about Kyle, a young man who recently perished on the corner. He describes, in gruesome detail, how the car's passenger survived, but the driver was...

You’d have a difficult task trying to find a film released in 2025 more overtly Canadian than “Sharp Corner.” If the opening credits citing producing parties like Telefilm Canada and Crave don’t make it immediately obvious, then director Jason Buxton ensures that the first images we see after the fact do, as a car rolls down a road paved across a densely boreal patch of land, a relentlessly chipper song about sunshine or whatever blasting over the soundtrack.

True to form, the least Canadian thing about “Sharp Corner” is likely what proves to be most recognizable about it, and subsequently the main reason why many will likely queue in: the at-once friendly and quietly sinister mug of one Ben Foster. Indeed, Foster’s name has become one most recognized for its lack of recognition, as the consistent American character actor has remained a fixture of audience “Most Underrated Actors...

Long Day’s Journey into Night unfolds within a single April day in 1912, as the Tyrone family convenes in their Connecticut seaside retreat. Morning light filters through lace curtains (ghostly in its delicacy), hinting at both renewal and decay. Jonathan Kent adapts Eugene O’Neill’s Pulitzer Prize–winning drama with minimal fanfare: David Lindsay-Abaire’s screenplay preserves the play’s structural integrity while allowing microexpressions to carry seismic emotional weight.

Cinematographer Mark Wolf frames each encounter with a stillness that feels almost surgical, positioning Mary (Jessica Lange), James (Ed Harris), Jamie (Ben Foster) and Edmund (Colin Morgan) in tableaux where silent glances speak volumes. Ilan Eshkeri’s sparse score—or absence thereof—amplifies ambient creaks and a distant foghorn, rendering the house a character itself.

Lange’s Mary drifts between lucid charm and opioid-tinted disorientation, while Harris’s James masks paternal regret beneath a veneer of theatrical pride. Foster’s...

The Orange is the New Black star’s gross monthly income was reported to be $22,205.50 in 2024. Meanwhile, Ben‘s gross monthly income was reported to be $70,509.92, according to settlement documents obtained by In Touch.

Based off of these numbers, Ben was ordered to pay Laura $5,500 a month in child support. They have also agreed to share joint legal custody of their two children.

Laura and Ben got married in 2018, and filed for divorce in 2024. Last month, Ben filed an amended divorce petition in which he accused Laura of “inappropriate marital conduct.” Laura responded to the claims by accusing Ben of “cruel and inhuman treatment or conduct” and being guilty of “habitual drunkenness.”

It is, at last, all over between Laura Prepon and Ben Foster.

The actor filed for divorce from the actress back on September 9, 2024 after six years of marriage.

But this legal process can move slowly at times and it took several months for the union to officially be dissolved.

According to In Touch Weekly, marital dissolution agreement was executed by the former spouses on April 14.

Based on this document, the parties were granted a divorce due to “irreconcilable differences” and they both agreed to enforce the prenuptial agreement they signed prior to walking down the aisle.

Hence why things between Prepon and Foster have not been especially acrimonious.

The aforementioned tabloid, however, can confirm that...

Audience favorite character actor Ben Foster has a bunch of intriguing upcoming projects, like a film adaptation of “Long Day’s Journey Into Night” and the action film “Motor City.” And Foster also co-stars alongside Sydney Sweeney in the still-untitled upcoming biopic about female professional boxer Christy Martin, which should hit theaters later this year.

"I was there when took his last breath..." Chilling. Vertical has unveiled the trailer for Sharp Corner, a thriller made by Canadian filmmaker Jason Buxton. This first premiered at the 2024 TIFF last year, and it also played at the most recent Rome, Glasgow, and San Francisco Film Festivals. A dedicated family man named Josh becomes obsessed with saving the lives of the car accident victims on the sharp corner in front of his house – an obsession that could cost him everything. A troubled man begins to spiral, consumed by the fatal car crashes caused by the sharp corner in front of his house. As his sick obsession takes hold, he places his wife and son in jeopardy, threatening to permanently break the family apart. Sharp Corner stars Ben Foster, Cobie Smulders, Gavin Drea, & William Kosovic. This obviously should remind anyone of Cronenberg's Crash film, but without the sexual intrigue, thoguh...

In 1996, David Cronenberg introduced audiences to Crash, a psychological drama about a car crash victim who finds himself turned on by car accidents and becomes involved in a sub-culture of like-minded souls. It’s a terrifying premise, and today, filmmaker Jason Buxton gives us another car accident-obsessed individual in the trailer and poster for Sharp Corner, an upcoming thriller starring Ben Foster and Cobie Smulders.

Jason Buxton directs and writes Sharp Corner. It follows Josh McCall(Ben Foster), a troubled man increasingly consumed by the fatal car crashes in front of his house. As Josh’s obsession takes hold, he begins to spiral, placing his wife, Rachel Davis-McCall (Cobie Smulders), and son, Max (William Kosovic), in jeopardy and setting in motion a series of events that threaten to break the family apart permanently.

Mountainhead, written and directed by the Succession creator in his directorial debut, will premiere on May 31 at 8 p.m. Et/Pt and will available to stream on Max. May 31 is, of course, the annual Emmy deadline.

Ben Foster, who was nominated for an Emmy for The Survivor a few years back, is headed back to the big screen with an upcoming action thriller that has finally secured a release date. After getting rave reviews last year during a brief festival run, King Ivory has set its sights on a 2025 release date window.

Variety reports that King Ivory, led by Hell or High Water star Ben Foster as well as Melissa Leo, has finally found theatrical distribution in the United States after premiering at the 2024 Venice Film Festival. King Ivory was directed by John Swab (Candy Land), based on his own screenplay. The movie tackles the fentanyl crisis "based on extensive research with law enforcement, gangs, inmates, migrants, and addicts." Check out the synopsis below:

Not to be confused with the 2017 folk horror of the same name, The Ritual started life as a Pacino-Ben Foster project in 2023 (Foster has since been replaced by the never-knowingly un-entertaining Dan Stevens), and its synopsis reads like a checklist of classic exorcism movie goodness.

Amid their tumultuous divorce, estranged couple Ben Foster and Laura Prepon have made allegations against one another for “cruel and inhumane treatment.”

On March 18, six months following their separation, Foster amended a divorce petition to accuse Prepon of “inappropriate marital conduct.” Foster had initially cited “irreconcilable differences” as the grounds for his and Foster’s divorce, but his amended petition alleges that he endured “cruel and inhuman treatment” from Foster, which rendered living with her “unsafe and improper.”

Prepon, one of the stars of Orange Is The New Black, responded the next day with the same accusation against Foster, adding he was “guilty of habitual drunkenness,” and asked for evidence of such inhuman treatment.

One of Frank Grillo’s more recent projects that perhaps didn’t get the theatrical release it deserved has found success on a new streamer. Grillo stars opposite Andy Garcia and Josh Hutcherson in Long Gone Heroes, the crime thriller following a special forces soldier who has given up everything but now must return to the field to track down his niece. The film recently began streaming on Paramount+ and has wasted no time becoming a major streaming hit, sitting at #2 at the time of writing, behind only Gladiator 2. Long Gone Heroes did not report any box office earnings, nor has it earned enough scores on Rotten Tomatoes to be rendered a review, but it's still wowing audiences on Paramount+ as one of the streamer’s most popular movies.

Shia Labeouf was promising in all forms before fumbling so hard that he is basically a pariah now. The actor (and screenwriter) had proved his talents in various films and was also gearing up to be a proper box office draw before his public troubles with the law and several controversies essentially ruined his career.

The Megapolis star has been known to cause controversies and his reactions to them have been equally intense. Actor Alec Baldwin recalled his experience working with the actor on a theatre production of Orphans. Baldwin mentioned that the two clashed over their processes, eventually leading to Labeouf exiting the project.

The U.K.’s National Theatre Live has unveiled cinema release plans for “Inter Alia,” starring Rosamund Pike as a London Crown Court Judge navigating professional demands and family life.

The production, which runs at the National Theatre’s Lyttelton theatre from July 10 to Sept. 13, marks a high-profile reunion of writer Suzie Miller and director Justin Martin following their breakout hit “Prima Facie,” starring Jodie Comer.

Pike, the Oscar-nominated star of “Gone Girl” and recently seen in “Saltburn,” portrays Jessica Parks, described as “a smart, compassionate, true maverick” who balances her judicial career with being “a karaoke fiend, a loving wife and a supportive parent.” The narrative centers on how an unexpected event threatens her carefully calibrated life.

Jamie Glover (“Waterloo Road”) and Jasper Talbot (“Redlands”) join Pike in her National Theatre debut.

“Inter Alia” will broadcast live to cinemas around the U.K. on Sept. 4 and will expand to global cinema screens beginning Sept.

Since the Golden Age of Hollywood, Westerns have delivered audiences some of the most powerful performances and best-written stories of cinema, from John Wayne in The Searchers to Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven. In 1993, Tombstone shook up the genre by bringing a star-studded, action-heavy story to the West, quickly winning over a new generation of viewers to the Western and revitalizing the film industry's interest in it.

Since the success of Tombstone, the Western genre has proven to be incredibly versatile, and studios have been more open to experimenting with the Old West than ever before. Films like Horizon: An American Saga, 3:10 To Yuma, and True Grit represent some of the most ambitious, best-written, and entertaining Westerns of all time. However, in the age of blockbuster superhero cinema, it's never been easier for great Westerns to go overlooked by mainstream audiences -- and these films prove it.

Ben Foster and Laura Prepon are in the middle of a messy divorce and they both have allegations about the other in newly-filed court documents.

The former couple split last year after six years of marriage and Ben filed for divorce in November 2024, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.

Now, Ben has filed an amended divorce petition in which he accuses Laura of “inappropriate marital conduct.”

In the court documents, which were obtained by In Touch, Ben says the “irreconcilable differences” have made him and Laura “unable to live together successfully as husband and wife.”

Oscar-winning actors, Hollywood royalty, film auteurs – everyone wants a piece of that signature Taylor Sheridan action that will turn them into an instant classic.

However, the actor who shot to fame by starring in Amazon Prime Video's action series Reacher has come out to say that War Machine will be Netflix's "biggest movie ever." Talk about confidence.

Ritchson was featured in Wired's web series "Autocomplete Interview," where he answered the internet's most-searched questions about him. One of the most frequent questions is "What new movie is Alan Ritchson in?," and the actor used the opportunity to talk about his upcoming feature film War Machine:

"Got like nine coming out, dude, it's crazy. War Machine for Netflix. I think, and you heard it here first, probably gonna be the,...

The Dublin Film Festival came to an end at the weekend after one of its most varied programs yet. Guests visiting the event included deep-dive documentary-maker Alexandre O. Philippe, attending with his Texas Chain Saw Massacre meditation Chain Reactions; director Jason Buxton, there with his acclaimed Ben Foster-starring thriller Sharp Corner, soon to be released by Vertical; Albert Serra, supporting his surprise San Sebastian winner Afternoons of Solitude; Palestinian director Elia Suleiman, honored by a curated retrospective; and British ’60s pop-culture icon Twiggy, subject of Sadie Frost’s film of the same name. From closer to home, director Lorcan Finnegan and writer Thomas Martin brought their cult Cannes hit The Surfer, and the UK’s Polly Steele came with Four Letters of Love starring Helena Bonham Carter and Pierce Brosnan.

Under the always assured stewardship of artistic Gráinne Humphreys, the festival took a big swing by opening with The Return,...

Ranking any performer's filmography comes with the need for at least some clarification, and that's especially true when it comes to action stars. Are they being ranked on the performance, the amazing action they deliver, or on the quality of the film as a whole? Are all films eligible or just the ones where the performer has a lead role? Does more action automatically land a film higher on the list? Does the person doing the ranking have impeccable taste when it comes to action cinema?

Below you'll find a ranking of Jason Statham movies, and here are the answers to those questions above. The films are ranked on their overall value as action films. We're focusing on Statham's lead roles -- otherwise "Spy" would dominate the top spot (and "The Way of the Dragon" would have made our ranked list of the best Chuck Norris films) -- whether as...

Jonathan Kent’s feature film adaptation of Long Day’s Journey Into Night begins, as the famous Eugene O’Neill play usually does, at breakfast. James Tyrone (Ed Harris) and his wife Mary (Jessica Lange) are enjoying some idle morning chitchat in their seaside Connecticut home, discussing trivial things like the foghorn that blared all through the previous night. They’re soon joined by their two sons, Jamie (Ben Foster) and Edmund (Colin Morgan), who quickly liven up the conversation by throwing a few gentle jibes at their father. “The joke is always at the old man’s expense,” James complains, perhaps only half-seriously.

The entirety of the film takes place at the Tyrone house, following these four characters over the course of a single day. At breakfast they seem the picture of a happy family, yet the camera keeps finding little signs that something isn’t right. Often it will...

Of all the characters Jessica Lange has played throughout her illustrious career, it’s Mary Tyrone, the restless, morphine-addicted mother of Eugene O’Neill’s play Long Day’s Journey Into Night, that has been her favorite.

“She’s the character that has touched me more deeply than any role that I’ve ever played,” says Lange. “You never get to the bottom of Mary Tyrone and I’ve played her hundreds of times on stage in London and New York. She’s written with such beauty and love and truth and intensity that you never complete her. I could keep on playing her for the rest of my life.”

After Lange completed her run on the 2016 Broadway revival of the play with prolific British theatre director Jonathan Kent, which won her a Tony Award, the pair were keen to immortalize the epic story as a feature film.

“It happened very organically,...

Romance and war seem like strange bedfellows, but cinema has shown time and time again that the pair naturally work together. The inherent violent and grim nature of war can serve as the perfect storytelling counterpoint to the joys of love. Moreover, war is incredibly dangerous, and this creates an ever-present risk to lovers and often creates a plot obstacle for them to overcome.

Predictably, not all wartime romances end with a 'happily ever after,' but bittersweet tales of a passionate love well lived can be heartwarming in their own right. On the other hand, when the audience encounters one of those few miraculous couples who manage to defy the odds, it's incredibly uplifting. No matter the region or the battle being fought, films have proven that love blossoms despite all odds.

The American Horror Story universe has been replete with chilling performances by some of the most talented actors in Hollywood. Among them is the remarkable Jessica Lange, who joined Ryan Murphy's AHS during its first season as Constance Langdon, a woman who lived next door to the subtitular Murder House. She then starred as Sister Jude in Asylum, Fiona Goode in Coven, and Elsa Mars in Freak Show. She reprised the role of Constance Langdon for 2018's Apocalypse, which marked her last time appearing in the horror anthology. Murphy's been teasing getting some of the show's most beloved stars back for its upcoming thirteenth season, but we can now count Lange out.

At the Glasgow Film Festival premiere of her latest movie, Long Day's Journey Into Night, Lange firmly dismissed the possibility of a return to AHS.

"Oh Christ, no. I mean, I haven't done it for more than 10 years,...

Writer-director Cat Davies is working on her next short film, Rubbers, and there’s a crowdfunding campaign to support it.

Cat Davies and James Moran, after collaborating on Connie, are teaming up for another short film. The pair are busy working on Rubbers, about a neurodivergent woman, played by Rosie Holt, who loves stationery – in particular the erasers of the story’s title. In fact, Davies and Moran already shot the piece, but there’s still plenty to do and they could use a bit of help.

We’d love to be able to say that making short films in the UK is a piece of cake, but unfortunately, it’s still quite a challenge, especially on the financial side of things. Davies and Moran have therefore set up a crowdfunding campaign to help with the expenses of post-production and distribution.

Rubbers has been filmed in regular 2D but also...

When it first aired in 2000, "Six Feet Under" was unknowingly part of the dawn of a golden age of television. Alongside early-aughts HBO hits like "The Wire" and "The Sopranos," the tragicomedy told the story of a family-run funeral home trying to make sense of life and death in the wake of the sudden loss of their father.

A revival has reportedly been in the works for some time, despite the fact that it would seemingly be in conflict with what is arguably the greatest series finale of a TV show ever. Still, the mere idea of a return to these loveable, complicated, and tragic characters makes us wonder what happened to the cast of "Six Feet Under?"

James Mangold directed films across genres including rom-coms, dramas, and biopics. He also helmed 2007's 3:10 to Yuma, one of cinema's best Western remakes.

James Mangold's 3:10 to Yuma joins Hulu's streaming library on Mar. 1. This 2007 Western is an impressive remake of the 1957 film, one of cinema's genre-defining classics. With an impressive ensemble led by Russell Crowe, Christian Bale, Peter Fonda, and Ben Foster, 3:10 to Yuma is a darker, grittier version of the original, which had a hopeful, triumphant ending. In contrast, James Mangold's remake is character-driven with its complex villain and tragic protagonist. The film was a modest success upon release, and it has since earned a cult following; Western fans consider it a worthy remake, acclaimed by critics and the general audiences.
