I was very impressed...


...by the trailer to The Soloist, playing before Burn After Reading. I was expecting the movie, based on the description alone, to be ridiculously sentimental, saccharine mush, but it doesn't look that way from the trailer (though the mention of Julliard and homeless together still puts me into a panic over shitty-ass August Rush). I should have known: RDJ don't do crap, right?

Milk also looks great. If it's as good as the trailer implies it is, hopefully it has all the success of Brokeback Mountain...

Finally, The Brothers Bloom looks like a riot. Or rather, Rachel Weisz does in it. Another Best Supporting Actress Oscar? Unlikely, but we'll see.


And, of course, here are the trailers:

Milk:


The Soloist:


The Brothers Bloom:

(New Jersey jokes are always funny.)
