Trailer
Rating: C+
Commentary: When did Luigi of Super Mario Bros. fame make a movie? This ridiculous design might be a slight amusement, but it’s a poor sales tool. 		Rating: C- / C
Commentary: I find it hard to believe that a design like this will be very appealing to filmgoers. There’s nothing particularly exciting, just an embarrassing series of humorless scenes that are supposedly clever. / Cleverness isn’t improved in the second trailer, but the film also doesn’t look entirely wasted. Paul Rudd will be fun to watch, but mostly this looks like a vainglorious attempt by the filmmaker to disarm a serious subject with tepid humor.

Oscar Chances: In spite of its festival wins, the Academy hasn’t ever shown favoritism towards this kind of movie.
