MaryAnn’s quick take… Gina Carano roams a mild yet tedious postapocalyptic wasteland as a bounty hunter, and either you are here for this lady badass of our feminazi dreams, or you are not. I’m “biast” (pro): I’m desperate for stories about women
I’m “biast” (con): nothing
(what is this about? see my critic’s minifesto) women’s participation in this film
(learn more about this)
It’s a confused kind of postapocalyptic hellscape in Scorched Earth. The earth doesn’t look very scorched, for one, “fifty years after the Cloudfall.” which takes us to, apparently, the early 22nd century. The air and water are poisoned, but everything seems pretty nice otherwise up here in the mountains of what used to be Montana. There’s a sort of neo Wild West vibe: it’s a little bit Firefly, actually. Billions of people are dead, which is terrible,...

Prince George, reporting for duty! On Friday, the nearly 3-year-old prince joined his parents for the first time during one of their official royal engagements in the United Kingdom. Prince William and Princess Kate surprised visitors at the Royal International Air Tattoo at Raf (Royal Air Force) Fairford by bringing along their airplane-loving son. George, who wore noise-blocking ear protectors, pointed at planes in the sky, waved to visitors and seemed especially fascinated by the tail rotor of a helicopter. "I imagine his father has told him about helicopters, so he knew what that was called and kept saying, 'tail rotor.

Sean Bean is set to star in the post-apocalyptic action thriller "Scorched Earth" says Deadline.
Set after an environmental collapse caused billions to die, mankind has finally re-established a rudimentary society with a new set of laws for the ravaged wastelands.
Bean plays bounty hunter named Atticus Gage who is very similar to the criminals he hunts. He is soon presented with the bounty of a lifetime, and goes off in search of the most wanted criminal in these badlands.
"24" and "Hawaii Five-0" executive producer Brad Turner will direct from a screenplay by Bobby Mort and Kevin Leeson. Leeson and Jamie Goehring will produce.

It’s long been a running gag that Sean Bean tends to end up dead in films. At this point, he’s essentially the live action equivalent of Kenny from South Park. We don’t think he’s doing himself any favours by signing up to post-apocalyptic action pic Scorched Earth, but at least he will be starring in it, which ups his survival chances considerably.Bobby Mort and Kevin Leeson have penned the screenplay, which finds Earth a ravaged wasteland after a massive environmental disaster does a number on both the world and the population, with billions left dead. Bean is on to play Atticus Gage, a bounty hunter hired to track down the world’s most wanted criminal for a hefty fee.Brad Turner, who has worked as a director on shows such as Prison Break, 24, and Homeland, is making his first big screen effort since 1987’s Goofballs.

To dispense with the funny-but-absurdly-obvious joke right off the bat: Maybe he’ll actually live to the end of this one!
So. Today, THR have let us know that Sean Bean, for what feels like his only onscreen role in years, will star in Scorched Earth, a post-apocalyptic thriller — the sort of subgenre which is almost naturally revealed by the title itself — for Brad Turner. The latter will be directing (what might be) his only theatrical feature since 1987′s Goofballs, working from a screenplay be Kevin Leeson and Bobby Mort wherein an environmental catastrophe leaves billions dead and Earth in ruins. Living amidst all this is Bean‘s character, “Atticus Gage, a bounty hunter, who receives the bounty of a lifetime to track the world’s most wanted criminal in these devastated badlands.”
Well, yes, I’d like to see him doing that in a film. Not the strongest or most comprehensive reaction,...

There’s a lot going on in Mongolian Death Worm, the underachieving Syfy original movie directed by Steven R. Monroe. Is it the story of a self-described "scoundrel" hunting for treasure? Or is it the tale of a dedicated doctor trying to save a village from pestilence? Or is it the account of oil exploration run amok that is also a metaphor for the way humanity is looting the resources of Mother Earth to deadly consequence? One could say it's all those things, and maybe that's why Mongolian Death Worm fails to entertain as well as it might. Or maybe it's just because the filmmakers never deliver any more than is absolutely necessary. Yeah, that's probably it.
