Review: (#1) The colors are poorly used and the background looks derivative while the foreground is sufficient to attract fans of the original.
(#2) Color wise, the design feels a little fresher. Design wise, it’s a simplified and inelegant display of famous faces.
(#3-#5) Unique colors, but an ugly design without much structural detail. (#6) The ugly background color makes for a weak foreground standing out too strongly so that the poor PhotoShop job stands out. (#7) Throwing back to the earlier posters, the colors pop and the action is obvious, but it looks terribly staged.
Trailer Rating: B- / B

Review: (#1) While there aren’t nearly as many laughs in the trailer as one would expect, it eventually settles into a rhythm that reminds one fondly of The Hitman’s Bodyguard. Whether the tone of the trailer translates to the film remains to be seen, but it could at least be engaging.
(#2) There were a few more funny bits in this trailer than the last, which makes it more interesting. It also ramps up the action, which is part of the appeal for fans of the original.
Oscar Prospects:
None.
Trailer #1
