Trailers Week 32: 15/02/15

Aloha

Veteran writer/director Cameron Crowe teams up with Bradley Cooper with a film where a Air Force legend has had a breakdown and is trying to put his life back together. Also starring Emma Stone, Bill Murray, Rachel McAdams, John Krasinski, Alec Baldwin and Danny McBride.

The Man From U.N.C.L.E.

Guy Ritchie is helming this adaptation of the classic 1960s TV show starring Robert Vaughn and David McCallum. In it, CIA agent Napoleon Solo must team up with Soviet spy Illya Kuryakin to save the day. It looks like a lot of fun. Starring Henry Cavill, Armie Hammer, Alicia Vikander and Hugh Grant.

Last Knights

Not quite sure what's going on here. I think Clive Owen is playing the last surviving knight from an order of particularly badass nights and is going up against an evil empire. Maybe? Also starring that age old seer Morgan Freeman.

Trainwreck

This rom-com may sound formulaic; girl who has grown up telling herself not to be monogamous all of a sudden falls in love, but when you see who's involved, your hopes will be as high as mine. Directed by Judd Apatow and written by hilarious comedian Amy Schumer, it stars Schumer, Bill Hader, Brie Larson and Colin Quinn.

Jauja

A father and daughter travel from Denmark to a strange desert, where the daughter is abducted. Shot in the style of a 1960's western, this movie from Lisandro Alonso looks stunning. Starring Viggo Mortensen.

Straight Outta Compton

This biopic about pioneering rap crew N.W.A. is produced by Dr. Dre and Ice Cube themselves, so it should be alright. Follows the rise and fall of Compton in the late 80s-early 90s. Starring O'Shea Jackson Jr, Corey Hawkins, Jason Mitchell and Paul Giamatti.

Regression

Emma Watson gets haunted in this spooky film from Spanish director Alejandro Amenábar. Also starring Ethan Hawke and David Thewlis.

Hitman: Agent 47

A reboot of the Hitman franchise (would you call one movie a franchise?). It looks like they still can't grasp that the focus of the games are stealth, so therefore the movies should be to. Starring Rupert Friend and Zachary Quinto. I still think Timothy Olyphant has the better voice for 47.

Hot Pursuit

Reese Witherspoon and Sofia Vergara star in this movie about an ambitious cop and the states witness she is trying to protect so that she can testify against a cartel lieutenant. I think Jim Gaffigan's character needs his own movie.
