The Contractor (Chris Pine, Ben Foster, Kiefer Sutherland)

You watch that trailer, you don’t need to watch the movie.

Yeah pretty much. And it was pretty obvious partway in how it was going to go. I’m sure Pine and Foster’s characters end up at odds: Pine is the Boy Scout and Foster just wants the money. It still might be good but it looks awfully formulaic.

[Parliament 14413]

I have hopes.  Many great movies have simple plots.

I thought Kiefer had been cancelled for being a dickhead 24/7

I first thought it was a bold move to make the Muslim with the viruses a bad guy.  Then they corrected course.

Most underrated actor in Hollywood: Ben Foster or Jake Gyllenhalllall?

Foster.

[Guest Lobo]

A movie about a man who makes words smaller by combining them or apostrophizing them?  

I guess the sky comma scene should be good, but otherwise...sounds like a 'meh' plot.

Never saw that but he was also good in the Navy Seal movie.

[Guest Lobo]

Yeah, he was incredible in that.  He played the subtle notes of Matt Axelson's "badassness" and bravery in quite brilliant fashion.  All business, all bravery, all badass...but never loud and in-your-face about it.  And had depth and emotional vulnerability to him.  

He is also eerily powerful in "3:10 to Yuma" as Ben Wade's lieutenant.  What he lacks in Crowe's character's charisma and vision, he makes up for with a very ominous skillset and comfort with true horror.
