  • Film Preview: Goya’s Ghosts (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C Review: If it weren’t for Natalie Portman’s face on this poster, the film wouldn’t be able to sell itself. Javier Bardem is a good actor and his somewhat-malicious glance at Portman tells volumes, but…

  • Film Preview: Becoming Jane (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B Review: Outside of the hint of period clothing, there’s not very much about this poster that warns audiences who don’t like the style that it’s a period romance. The makers are hoping that Anne…

  • Film Preview: The Golden Compass (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B-; B- Review: It wouldn’t entice children to see it if the poster didn’t have a kid and an armored polar bear. As the number of films with winter themes or settings increasing each week,…

  • Film Preview: I Know Who Killed Me (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D Review: If there ever was a point to the design of this poster, it must have been completely lost in the final product. The trailer tells us nothing about roses and while the hidden…

  • Film Preview: David and Layla (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 preview says it’s inspired by a true…

  • Film Preview: The Game Plan (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C- Review: Clutter seems to be the name of the game with comedy posters. Trying to tickle the viewer’s funny bone before getting them stuck in their seats, studios put a little too much into…

  • Film Preview: Joshua (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: The poster looks nice, but it says very little, if anything, about the film’s plot. It might cause people to ask what the movie is, but it’s not going to draw in an…

  • Film Preview: National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B Review: I don’t know why visions of Next are swimming in my head after this, but the poster does bear some resemblance. The poster design is still creative and at once convey’s the films…

  • Film Preview: Day Watch (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: A Review: Stylish. The makers of this film and it predecessor certainly know a thing or two about engaging an audience. The disparate colors of night and day clashing on the film’s poster as they…

  • Film Preview: Are We Done Yet? (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: Pretty typical poster featuring most of the characters of the film in position of support to the lead whose attempts to fix up the house form the basis for the film. Even the…

  • Film Preview: License to Wed (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: Few things can kill a poster more quickly than Robin Williams’ smug mug. He’s a funny comedian, but his films have been increasingly more irritating and this poster just accentuates that. The poster…

  • Film Preview: 1408 (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B+ Review: This is a succinct and interesting poster. Although the faux-painting style of the film’s leads’ images aren’t spectacular and John Cusack’s pose is a little too creepy (for supposedly being the film’s protagonist),…

  • Film Preview: The Namesake (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: The poster is far too vibrant. It assaults the eyes with a lot of warm colors, perhaps not the desired effect about a family relationship drama. There’s also a great deal of clutter…

  • Film Preview: Private Fears in Public Places (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C Review: This poster does what I dislike in many such creations. It features scenes from the film in bars stretched across the design. It then makes the background look like a snowy season in…

  • Film Preview: Balls of Fury (2007)

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+; C+ Review: Any poster that solely uses its title as a poster has to be a sign that they haven’t come up with an official one yet. Since this film doesn’t release until September,…
