American action-adventure comedy film titled ‘The Lost City’ featuring Sandra Bullock and Brad Pitt in lead roles, is releasing at all four branches of Star Cineplex from today.
The film is directed by Aaron and Adam Nee, both of whom co-wrote the screenplay with Oren Uziel and Dana Fox, from a story conceived by Seth Gordon.
The Lost City had its world premiere at South by Southwest on March 12 and is scheduled to be released in the United States today, by Paramount Pictures.
The film revolves around Loretta Sage, who is a dissatisfied middle-aged author who writes romance-adventure novels, centered around a fictional hero named Dash, who is portrayed by dimwitted cover model Alan Caprison. While on tour with Alan to promote her new book, Loretta is kidnapped by Abigail Fairfax, an eccentric billionaire who believes that the lost city in Loretta’s new book is real and that she knows where it is; Alan, despite having no survival skills, goes off to rescue her.
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 79% of 52 critics’ reviews are positive, with an average rating of 6.3/10. The website’s consensus reads, “The Lost City doesn’t sparkle quite as brightly as some classic treasure-hunting capers, but its stars’ screwball chemistry make this movie well worth romancing.
The film also stars Daniel Radcliffe as Fairfax, Channing Tatum as Alan, Patti Harrison, Oscar Nuñez, Da’Vine Joy Randolph as Beth, Raymond Lee as Officer Gomez, Thomas Forbes-Johnson as Julian, Héctor Aníbal as Rafi, Danny Radhames Vasquez Castillo as Henchman.
