Review: The color tones in this design work incredibly well together. If only the design itself were less banal.

Trailer Rating: C+ / C+

Review: (#1) A conventional romantic trailer that makes its hook obvious early on and never tries to capitalize on it.

(#2) This second trailer doesn’t make the film look any more compelling, though the hook revealed in the first trailer is gone, which adds a certain level of suspense to the drama. That said, it still looks terribly rote.

Oscar Prospects:

You can’t discount a Denzel Washington film from competition, especially with someone like Michael B. Jordan. That said, Washington hasn’t had a lot of Oscar success for his own films.
