Trailer

Release Date: October 10th, 2008 (wide)

Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Russell Crowe, Carice van Houten, Vince Colosimo, Clara Khoury 

Directed by: Ridley Scott

Premise: A CIA operative, Roger Ferris, uncovers a lead on a major terrorist leader suspected to be operating out of Jordan. When Ferris devises a plan to infiltrate his network, he must first win the backing of cunning CIA veteran Ed Hoffman and the collegial, but perhaps suspect, head of Jordanian intelligence.

Russel Crowe could have a good role here. If the film makes his role as comedic as the trailer indicates then it could be another avenue for him. I worry about DiCaprio because his performance here looks exactly like his one in The Departed. I thought he was limited as an actor, but I didn't think this limited.

I forgot everything about this movie as soon as the trailer ended. It's amazing how talking on a phone just isn't as exciting as it used to be. Damnit.
My assholeness knows no bounds.

The theater I was in for Dark Knight screwed up and played this trailer twice before the movie. It looked just as uninteresting the second time.

Don't even bother plunking down the money, you're going to hate it. The difference is that this time everyone here will feel it's mediocrity too. Sorry if that sounded a bit hostile but you've kinda gotten people a bit on edge ever since your tear down of TWBB and The Dark Knight.

Yeah, I agree with Stefen. I saw this trailer at Tropic Thunder, and I actually forgot that it existed until I saw this thread. That was yesterday.

I hate everything about this movie.

Am I being mistaken for Stefen now? It's good company to be in, but what the hell?

It's funny how Leo went from narrowly avoiding being typecast by Titanic to have a comeback with Marty only to become typecast as guy in boring cop thriller crap.

And we'd be better off, if you ask me.
