Preview: Midnight Eagle (2007)

• Poster: C+

Review:

There's nothing exceptional about this cookie cutter poster. It uses the same design elements as many others of its genre, the only distinction is in the cooler colors used, which is only marginally appropriate for the film's setting and theme.

• Trailer: B-

Review:

The typical dramatic sense of urgency is evident as this traditional action film unfolds in the trailer. Other than the fact that this looks a great deal like many other American-made movies and that the trailer itself follows the formula, there's nothing extremely interesting about this.

Oscar Prospects:

A Foreign Language Film non-submission should render this film ignored by the Academy. If it's good, it might be a contender for Foreign Language Film from those critics groups that don't require individual country submissions.

Release Date:
