Toronto, Ontario: The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) comes to DMG/AMTI Studios. The main cast of 'The Judge,' Robert Downey Jr. ('Iron Man,' 2008), Robert Duvall ('Get Low,' 2010), Billy Bob Thornton ('Mr. Woodcock,' 2007), Dax Shepard ('Veronica Mars,' 2014), Vera Farminga ('The Departed,' 2006) & Vincent D'Onofrio ( 'Men In Black,' 2007) sat down at DMG/AMTI Studios to film a promotional roundtabe dicussion for their new movie "The Judge." Included on set with the A-list cast was Director Josh Oreck (Matrix Revisted, 2001; V For Vendetta, 2006) & D.O.P Bill Hope (The Matrix, 1999; Spiderman 2, 2004).
"Gavels are slammed, tempers are lost and bowels are evacuated with great force in David Dobkin's "The Judge," an engrossing, unwieldy hurricane of a movie that plays like a small-town courtroom thriller by the way of a testosterone-fueled remake of "August: Osage County." Some elements ring truer than others in this ambitious blend of dysfunctional-family melodrama and legal procedural, but all of them are just about held together by the ferocious onscreen chemistry between two Roberts (Duvall and Downey Jr.), playing an overbearing father and a black-sheep son who find their already tense relationship literally put on trial. Refreshing as it is to see Downey step out of the Iron Man suit for a spell, the jury's still out on whether an impressive talent roster can draw enough grown-up eyeballs to this overlong, resolutely old-fashioned male weepie, set for release Oct. 10 by Warner Bros."
