Preview: Guilt Trip (2012)

Synopsis:

Concerned about his mother's loneliness, a young salesman takes her on a cross-country trip to sell his new product.

• Poster: B

Review:

For a comedy poster, it does what it needs to do: portray the overly concerned mother and the embarrassed son. It doesn't do anything new or spectacular, but it succeeds nonetheless.

• Trailer: B+

Review:

There are some genuinely funny moments in the trailer, but probably too many. Front-loading your trailer with too many laughs may blunt the impact of what remain in the film as they aren't likely to live up to the same comic standard.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
