Rating: None
Commentary: Poster was a placeholder at the time this post was written. 		Rating: B-
Commentary: The trailer definitely builds this as a holiday treat for audiences with an imagination. However, part of me suspects another Night at the Museum that focuses less on philosophical questions and more on entertaining the audience. Entertainment isn’t bad, but the story of Walter Mitty has a lot of potential for deep thought that could easily be subsumed by poor writing. This trailer doesn’t tells us quite which direction it’s going to go, though.

Oscar Chances: There’s chatter that the film could nab some nominations, but outside of the tech categories, I can’t see anything else.
