Review: (#1) A warm, tropical design that captures a lot of the feeling of the film without being particularly exciting. (#2) This looks like a brochure one might find advertising a retirement community. It’s on par with the visual style of the first poster, but not better. (#3-#5) These character posters, although styled slightly differently than prior efforts, carry the theme through perfectly, helping create the impression that the designers cared about the subject, but not enough to make something genuinely spectacular.
Trailer Rating: C

Review: While many films starring older actors have tended to look the same, vain attempts to capture a particular audience with gentle humor and familiar faces. Yet, this trailer comes off a bit better, making the story about rivalry rather than romance, which adds a certain spark to the material even if it still looks faintly milquetoast.
Oscar Prospects:
None.
