	Individual Commentary:
	Wesley Lovell (WL): A Cold War spy thriller that could be fun to watch. Peter J. Patrick (PP): Looks to be a well-made spy film set around the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. Thomas LaTourette (TL): I was really looking forward to this cold war thriller, but the early reviews have me tempering that enthusiasm.

	Individual Commentary:
	Wesley Lovell (WL): I am not really sure what to make of this, but it looks mildly interesting. Peter J. Patrick (PP): Comic suspense film might have merit but appears to be more chaotic than it needs to be. Thomas LaTourette (TL): There might be some humor in the film, but it is sorely lacking in the trailer which is not a good thing for a movie that bills itself a “Killer comedy.”

	Individual Commentary:
	Wesley Lovell (WL): This looks like a dull, plodding mess of a film. Peter J. Patrick (PP): Low energy comedy doesn’t look particularly interesting. Thomas LaTourette (TL): This is a comedy drama where someone reconnects with his old haunts and friends. It’s been done many times and probably much better.

	Individual Commentary:
	Wesley Lovell (WL): Forgettable trailer and premise. I’m just not sure whether I would want to see it or not. Peter J. Patrick (PP): Overwrought horror film looks too intense for my tastes. Thomas LaTourette (TL): I am not certain if it is trying to be a horror film or a psychological thriller, but it does not seem to work in either genre.
