An unfortunate title for a film that isn’t going to reach many people.

Emperor

Plot Summary: World War II is over. General MacArthur is tasked with determining the complicity of the Japanese emperor in the bombing of Pearl Harbor while trying to avoid a revolution of the people.
Release Date: March 8, 2013

Poster

Trailer
Rating: B
Commentary: A simple, somewhat elegant design. I can’t really say that much about this poster doesn’t work, but it is unlikely to serve as a perfect sellingn tool for the film. 		Rating: C
Commentary: Short on action, long on conversation, it’s the type of movie that appeals to a very narrow demographic. Matthew Fox looks out of his depth and Tommy Lee Jones doesn’t have enough to do.
Preview Link: CLICK HERE for link to the trailer, more posters (if available) and other commentary not featured here.
Oscar Chances: Even if the film didn’t get a qualifying run last year, the Oscars won’t remember Jones by the year’s end, so I doubt this film will result in much interest from the Academy.
