Directed by Ruben Fleischer; Tom Hardy, Jenny Slate, Michelle Williams and Riz Ahmed are the stars of the latest, Venomtrailer, an action/sci-fi/horror movie about a complex, badass lethal protector.
Thanks to all the acting talent, editing and special effects, this trailer is a thing of beauty. One that probably brought a tear or two to the eyes of many a film lover.
I can’t wait to experience all that appears to be different compared to other Marvel films.
The first trailer for Dunkirk, the new movie directed by the rightly celebrated writer/director, Christopher Nolan has landed.
Teaser trailer
Trailer 1
Generally speaking, war movies aren’t my favourite genre of film but I’ll probably try anything once if Nolan is at the helm. This teaser trailer is great for the first look. A look that left my heart threatening to exit my chest by the end. Trailer one reminds me of what makes great trailers.
The stars of the movie include recent Nolan regulars Cillian Murphy and Tom Hardy. Then there’s Mark Rylance and Harry Styles. What a gift it must be for one’s first movie to be directed by someone at the level of Nolan. If I were in the position of Mr. Styles, I don’t think I could ever get over such a thing, regardless of how small my part might be.
Dunkirk Release Dates: July 19th, 2017 (FR); July 21st, 2017 (US & UK); July 27th, 2017 (GER)…
While telling the story of two of Britain’s most notorious criminals, the Kray twins, I can confirm that thanks to the combination of all the characters, dialogue, music and cinematography of 1960s London, Legend did an adequate job keeping me engaged.
Besides Tom Hardy who is, shocker-not shocker, just brilliant in his task of portraying both Reginald (Reggie) and Ronald (Ronnie) Kray, another big draw for me was the delightful Britishness of the humour in Legend.
Prior to this movie, my main experience of London’s East End gangster/criminal world was Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels (1998). The pace and rhythm of that movie is one of the best things about it. In comparison to Legend, granted, the period in time is quite different, but I did find myself wanting for things to move along a tad quicker.
Each time the two brothers were on screen simultaneously, those were the most engaging moments, and not just because I was curious to see how well director Brian Helgeland handled the reality of Tom Hardy essentially ‘talking to himself.’
Ronnie and Reggie’s sibling bond and the dynamics of their relationship are the most interesting aspects of this story. We get to experience and witness this bond in Helgeland’s movie, but I’d have loved for more of the film to be dedicated to the story of the brothers, perhaps as young boys/ men. I wanted a clearer picture of what it took to create the reality that became their lives. Without a look back, the story felt incomplete.
In my fantasy of this movie, I’d say, either split the story of the Kray twins into two films, or forget about the relationship between Reggie and Francis, It’s boring – and instead focus on the most important love affair instead, the one between the two brothers. After all, it is the thing that ultimately decided their fate.
I don’t think that Legend is a bad film. It just simply left me wanting, more than I would have liked. Still, if you’re curious, watch it for the Tom Hardy excellence.
