By Matt Holmes /

We are ever closing in on the September 12th U.S. release date for the next Coens Brothers movie, Burn After Reading - a dark comedy that sees George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich and Tilda Swinton star. The movie is playing next week at the Toronto International Film Festival and Obsessed With Film hopes to have someone down there covering the event, this is top of our list of must see movies. And I have to say, I've really been digging the posters for this movie. Just gorgeous...

Meanwhile the reviews for the movie have been coming in from advanced press screenings. Variety called it "silly", The Hollywood Reporter were so-so calling it a slow burner, The Guardian hated it, mixed reviews are everywhere right now. No Country For Old Men finished on a 94% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes but as soon as we saw this trailer, we always knew this one wasn't going to be for everyone. I like the look of it, but I can see why some wouldn't...

Look for our review next Weekend!
