The Pirates Of Somalia is based on the true story of rookie journalist Jay Bahadur’s time with Somali pirates. Bahadur spent time with the pirates for the purpose of providing the first close-up look into who they are, the way they live and the forces that drive them. Directed by Bryan Buckley; Evan Peters, Al Pacino and Barkhad Abdi star..

This could be interesting. Though, at the same time this trailer could have done a better job of selling the movie. I’m not in love with the way it ends. On a separate note, it’s good to see Abdi of Captain Philips (2013) playing a non-pirate role, as far as I can tell.

Melanie Griffith and Russell Posner also star.

The Pirates Of Somalia Release Dates: December 8th, 2017 (US)…

In Good Time Robert Pattinson plays a bank robber whose brother ends up in jail after  a botched bank robbery. What follows is a twisted odyssey through New York City’s underworld in an increasingly desperate and dangerous attempt to get his brother out. Directed by Ben and Joshua Safdie; Barkhad Abdi (from Captain Philips -2013), Jennifer Jason Leigh and Lucas Elliot Eberl also star…

I find the first 17 seconds of this trailer awkward but everything that follows is good and intriguing. It looks as though Good Time could be an important role for Pattinson. May it be as good as this tailer suggests. That way I’ll maybe, at last have a favourite Robert Pattinson movie.

Good Time Release Dates: August 11th, 2017 (US)…
