In Bruges - Poster

This movie looks like it is going to be fun. I am actually glad to see Colin Farrell back on the big screen. Yes, he was overexposed a few years back, but the time away will have done him well. He is a good actor. Now, I can only hope that In Bruges is better than Cassandra's Dream. Joining Farrell in the cast are Brendan Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes. I have previously posted the first poster and trailer, but there is a new poster to check out.

Amusement - Photos, Trailer

I have to say that this upcoming horror film looks pretty good. Granted, we have not seen much from it yet, but I like the creepy atmosphere and graphic horror that it would seem to promise. It has a sort of It meets Captivity vibe. I like both of those, so that bodes well for this. Again, it could just as easily go the other route and be flat out terrible. Here are a stills and the teaser trailer:

Taken - Trailer

As familiar as the content feels, this looks like a fun film. It's too bad it does not have a US release date. Its UK release is coming up fast. It stars Liam Neeson, whose daughter is kidnapped, and he has to get her back using his "particular set of skills." What makes this promising, in addition to Neeson in the starring role, is that it is produced and written by Luc Besson who has an interesting vision of film, not the greatest, but definitely more good than not. It is also directed by Pierre Morel who made his directorial debut in 2004 with the very fun District B13. Joining Liam Neeson are Famke Jannsen and Maggie Grace. Here's to hoping it comes stateside:


That's it! I hope you liked it!
