Colorful and engaging, but so unbeliveably cliché. The only way the poster could be any more stereotypical is if the Statue of Liberty had been featured in the background.
Could they have mixed a worse soundtrack together? The narrator has little emotive quality to his voice and outside of some interesting locales and a promising story, this trailer just fails to really entice. Even the "Martin Scorsese Presents" mention doesn't make it much more likely.
Likely to be pushed aside by the more visual The Golden Age and understandable confusion between the titles, I'm not certain there will be much Oscar recognition, especially with such an early release.
I have not seen this film.
