Movie 43

AN ALL-STAR CAST FOR A FLOP?

A movie that brings a slew of A-list actors and actresses coming together to make a movie of what could only be a ... mess? The trailer doesn't present much except introduce a reel of crazy lines and surprising cameos. The plot is left to be desired as there seems to be a lack of one. I could only break it down to an array of story lines that "might" eventually come together. Seeing that the film is in a comedic genre, I can't tell if this movie is a parody or a new breed of comedy.

The choice of title doesn't explain much, but it does pique my curiosity. Surprisingly to know that Elizabeth Banks, star of Hunger Games as Effie Trinket, is also one of the ten directors of the film. It is left to wonder if she was one of the "brilliant" minds that thought of putting this movie together.

A few interesting points in the trailer is the use of Gerard Butler (300) as a small leprechaun. Kate Winslet (Titanic) and Halle Berry (Monster's Ball) also makes an appearance, but her role is not explained. It's enough to make me somewhat interested. The film is being released by "Rogue Pictures" on January 25, 2013. Check it the cast list on IMDB.com.
