Beware the too-hip-to-be-square movie trailer. Too often it masks a film without a soul or sense of purpose. The Vegas drama “21,” out on DVD Tuesday July 22, is a classic example.
The film itself also loses its way with an avalanche of slow-motion sequences. Even the trailer can’t help itself. It’s got a sampler slo-mo to whet your appetite. Leave the slo-mo bits to Tarantino and a few other directorial experts.
And that’s a shame, since “21″ is based on a pretty cool true story. My Washington Times review explores just went wrong with the promising drama.
