I've just seen some good trailers. The Tourist starring Johnny Depp. Good use of Muse-Motp. The Losers starring Idris Elba. This dvd I am selling on 22/09. UNKNOWN starring Liam Neeson, Dianne Kruger, January Jones, Aiden Quinn, Bruno Ganz, Frank Langella. StudioCanal/Dark Castle 2011. I do feel Liam might wind up getting typecast. He has had a variety of roles. He is in Amongst The Tombstones in cinemas now. You should see Non-Stop, Dark Man, The Lego Movie to name a few. Fans of Taken will love this. It's described as 'Bourne meets Hitchcock'. Cert 15 5055201814227 plenty of special features. I saw the trailer a few weeks back. Dr Martin Harris has flown in with his wife. They're on their way to a biotechnology summit in Berlin. Similar Bourne trilogy, The Forgotten, Total Recall, The Net, The 6th Day. A suitcase had been left behind at the airport. Some problems at check-in at the hotel. The taxi driver is pretty as is the wife. On the way back to the airport there is a car crash. He awakes in hospital. Having been in a coma and suffering some memory loss. He must piece together what happened and why. It's an action thriller. Sometimes I feel trailers, blurbs and reviews give too much away. There are twists, violence, deceit, betrayal. His wife doesn't recognise him. He needs to prove that he is who he says he is. Others see him as a mad man. There are a group of assassins that want to keep him out of the way. There is the comedy The Double that I'll see. Gina is an immigrant. Working as a taxi driver and barmaid. A good cast of actors. I like the old east german spy that's helping Martin. They would've got permission to film the stunt scenes on the streets of Berlin. Very apt having Blue Monday on the soundtrack. Lots of clues. Martin carries a book with him. I'm rooting for the guy. I think you ought to see this. January Jones (Liz) was in X-Men First Class. Dianne Kruger (Gina) was in The Host. Bruno Ganz was in Downfall. See wikipedia/imdb for more films and full cast, crew names. http://amazon.co.uk LAKEVIEW TERRACE Samuel L Jackson, Patrick Wilson, Kerry Washington, Jay Hernandez, Ron Glass, Justin Chambers, Regine Nehy, Jaishon Fisher, Robert Pine, Keith Loneker, Caleeb Pinkett. Directed by Neil Labute, Screen Gems 2008 Cert 18 5035822505087. I'm selling this on Amazon tomorrow. Region 2 & 5. Bonus are deleted scenes and featurettes. Languages in English, Czech, Hungarian, Polish, Turkish. Subtitled in various languages. A drama thriller looking at racial tensions, prejudice, neighbourhood, communities. Set in California. A black LA police officer lives in this area with his young son and teenage daughter. He is a strict father. A religious man. A newlywed couple have only just moved in. Chris (white) and Lisa (black). Abel the cop likes to keep a watchful eye on his neighbours. He clearly doesn't approve of their interracial relationship. A talented cast of actors. Lakeview is a suburb. Scenes also shot in downtown LA. Good scene at the arrest of the local drug dealer. The soundtrack is pretty good. Priscilia and Marcus are the kid's names. See the ads, trailers and reviews. The Purge, The Last House On The Left, The Burbs, 187, The Ledge, Pulp Fiction, Scandal, Friday, Boyz In The Hood, Dangerous Minds, Crash, Do The Right Thing, Bamboozled, Training Day, A Time To Kill, Die Hard With A Vengence, House Party, Hard Candy, Insidious, The Last King Of Scotland. For some reason I assume Kerry was in a Saw film. Good dialogue, especially from Able. Some nice strippers in a scene. Interesting scenery. Special features are infact a making of segment, commentary, deleted scenes and trailers.
