Questions prompted by this trailer for an upcoming movie:
1) When did Russell Crowe morph into John Larroquette?
2) Sometimes DiCaprio seems to be doing some kind of accent ("How the hell you expect me to run an operation when you runnin' a sahd operation?"), sometimes not. Is this a character choice, or really bad acting?
3) Speaking of bad acting, whose accent is Crowe channeling--Foghorn Leghorn's or Pacino's in Scent Of A Woman?
4) From what you see here, do you have any idea what this movie is about?
5) If I told you it was about the CIA tracking down an Islamic terrorist, would you roll your eyes and sigh, "Just what we need, a glossy, star-driven take on a topical subject. I'm sure it will be really incisive," making sure to deploy air quotes as you sneer the word "incisive"?
6) Since Ridley Scott has directed roughly a thousand movies since Blade Runner, none of them very good, how does he keep getting work?
7) What would anybody expect the director of G.I. Jane and Hannibal to bring to their topical thriller?
8) Why does the very existence of this movie make me so angry?
