This week, I got some very exciting trailers for you. Let's get to it!
Inside Out
Directed by Peter Doctor and Ronaldo del Carmen
Starring Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Lewis Black and Bill Hader
After a girl moves to a new home, her emotions are plunged into chaos fighting for control of her mind.
FINALLY! After years of sequels and one underwhelming stand-alone movie ("Brave"), PIXAR looks like they're back to their roots! While the majority of their sequels have been decent, they haven't made a truly great original film since 2009's "Up". I'm hoping this gets them back on track. "Inside Out" hits theaters June 19th.
Infinitely Polar Bear
Directed by Maya Forbes
Starring Mark Ruffalo, Zoe Saldana, Imogene Wolodarsky and Ashley Aufderheide
A manic-depressive mess of a father tries to win back his wife by attempting to take full responsibility of their two young, spirited daughters, who don't make the overwhelming task any easier.
This looks extremely tender and heartwarming. It looks to have that warm, independent feel that somehow makes it easier to connect to the film even in just a short trailer. Mark Ruffalo has been getting some great reviews regarding his performance in this and I am looking forward to seeing it. As of now, "Infinitely Polar Bear" does not have a non-festival release date. Perhaps they're holding off to make a push for award season next year.
Adult Beginners
Directed by Ross Katz
Starring Nick Kroll, Rose Byrne, Bobby Cannavale and Joel McHale
A young, narcissistic entrepreneur crashes and burns on the eve of his company's big launch. With his entire life in total disarray, he leaves Manhattan to move in with his estranged, pregnant sister, brother-in-law and 3-year-old nephew in the suburbs - only to become their nanny.
At this point, the only reason I would see this is for Nick Kroll. It doesn't look too interesting to me, but I like the cast enough to give it a shot. We'll see how it goes when it is released on April 24th.
Cut Bank
Directed by Matt Shakman
Starring Liam Hemsworth, Teresa Palmer, Billy Bob Thornton and John Malkovich
A young man's life in unraveled after witnessing a murder that he filmed in his rural town of Cut Bank, Montana.
This definitely looks interesting. It looks like a mix between "No Country for Old Men" and " Fargo". With this star-studded cast, I'm sure it will be worth a look. I'm not sure if this will be amazing. But it will be released online April 5th, so you can check back for a review around that time. I'm sure I'll watch it.
Before I Wake
Directed by Mike Flanagan
Starring Kate Bosworth, Thomas Jane, Jacob Tremblay and Dash Mihok
When a couple takes in a foster child, they think all of their prayers have been met since losing their own son. But things take a turn for the worse when they discover that terrible things sometimes happen when the boy sleeps.
This could go either way. It looks interesting and seems to have a somewhat original premise from other films in the "demon-child" genre. But what worries me is the PG-13 rating. Its rare that a PG-13 horror movie ends up being good. But their are few exceptions. Will this be one? We'll find out when it opens nationwide on May 8th.
Thanks for checking out this weeks trailers. Be sure to come back next week when we'll have more. In the mean time, check out some of my reviews. You might find a movie you have never heard of before.
