Beware the too-hip-to-be-square movie trailer. they usually mask a film without a soul or sense of purpose. The new-to-DVD Vegas drama “21″ is a classic example. The trailer makes it seem trendy, hip and exhilarating. It’s all three, but only over a few early sequences.
My Washington Times review upon its theatrical release explored just went wrong with the promising drama. Some say “21’s” Jim Sturgess is a star on the rise. I just can’t see it, at least not yet.

Toto! The new site is hip. However did you get George Clooney and Patricia Arquette to sit for photographs for you? Niiiice…

Thanks … everyone thinks its Patricia Arquette, but it’s Frances McDormand. And you know I’m pretty well connected in Hollywood, so the photo shoot was a breeze, har har.
