Preview: 180º South (2010)

Synopsis:

Adventurer Jeff Johnson explores the Patagonia region where his personal heroes took an epic journey in 1968.

• Poster: D+; B+

Review:

If the documentary is looking at a single region, why is this a global design. The colors are bland and the image feels pointless.

From the eco-destructed title to the gorgeous back drop, this poster is certainly something to look at and possibly even display on a wall, but it's also not the kind of poster that tells people effectively what the film is about without them having seen the trailer first.

• Trailer: C

Review:

Part nature documentary, part social commentary, the trailer just doesn't make this look like an exciting adventure.

Oscar Prospects:

None.

Release Date:

• May 21, 2010
