  • Film Preview: Dan in Real Life (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: From a marketing standpoint, a depressed Steve Carell can still sell the film, but the poster belies the comedic content of the trailer. This poster suggests an uproarious production. The trailer gives the…

  • Film Preview: The Comebacks (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C+ Review: If anything, this poster will bring in guys who have fantasies about girls in football uniforms. The Coach-style lettering is fiting for the style, but this poster doesn’t give the audience enough information…

  • Film Preview: Drillbit Taylor (2008)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C-; D- Review: Better than the first, placeholder poster, this one is not that much better. Relying on Owen Wilson to sell the film is one thing and putting him into a goofy “martial arts”…

  • Film Preview: Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C Review: Jason Lee looks nothing like the original David Seville, yet his face is plastered on the poster larger than the chipmunks themselves. And what’s with that look. You think he’s possibly frustrated, but…

  • Film Preview: Right at Your Door (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C Review: It’s at once both intriguing and not. The Hollywood sign in the background is a bit more obvious than the reflection in the gas mask. However, the overall look doesn’t depart much from…

  • Film Preview: Hannah Takes the Stairs (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: – Review: There was no poster immediately available for my review.

  • Film Preview: Resurrecting the Champ (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C- Review: Rocky? Is that you? Apart from the style of dozens of other boxing dramas, this poster’s assault of yellow and orange is irrating. It does, however, distract from the poster’s lack of creativity.…

  • Film Preview: Ladron Que Roba a Ladron (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C- Review: What’s black and white and red all over? There are many possible answers to that old joke but this poster certainly doesn’t adequately answer it. There’s nothing very intersting about it and the…

  • Film Preview: The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B Review: It’s quite interesting how posters are conveying the same impression of trailers lately. This poster does a good job of invoking the darkness of the film, while forcing you to question if it’s…

  • Film Preview: Underground (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: – Review: There was no poster immediately available for my review. Should one become available in the future, this section will be updated. Trailer Rating: C+ Review: The title says it all. This film looks…

  • Film Preview: We Own the Night (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: The black-and-white makes this seem like a throwback to the cop dramas of the 70s. Joaquin Phoenix’s expression works, Mark Wahlberg’s does not. It’s almost as if he’s staring off at something that…

  • Film Preview: Deep Water (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B Review: The overall design of this poster is quite impressive. Although it’s merely an image from the film, it captures the essence of the film’s subject. The colors are pleasing and the image is…

  • Film Preview: Sleuth (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: – Review: There was no poster immediately available for my review. Should one become available in the future, this section will be updated. Trailer Rating: C- Review: The first thought that crossed my mind was…

  • Film Preview: Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears a Who (2008)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: There is nothing interesting about this poster. Simplistic background color and varied-size characters along with a title is horribly uninteresting. Trailer Rating: B-; C Review: Could this be anymore obvious? This is the…

  • Film Preview: Manda Bala (Send a Bullet) (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: The most interesting part about the poster isn’t the lizard nor is it the bullet that fits with the title, but the colors. On a white background, the lettering is all yellow and…
