• Poster: C-

Review:

It's an atrocious poster. It's lacking in depth, humor and intelligence.

• Trailer: C

Review:

How do you describe a film like this? It looks so pointless. It looks so pedestrian. It looks so popular-in-the-making. No matter how good or bad this trailer is (and it's decidedly bad), it will still draw an audience.

Oscar Prospects:

Visual Effects are a distant possibility, but my guess is the film will just be frozen out.

Release Date:
