Poster Rating: D / C / C+

Review: (#1) A horrid white background, bold white lettering and our actors in silhouette. The whole affair isn’t well designed for audience engagement.
(#2) Two bad boys coming up. The blend of colors in the background add some depth, but the focal figures of the poster aren’t interesting. (#3) An action shot, but the whole design feels staid, formulaic, and unexciting.
Trailer Rating: C+ / C

Review: (#1) Fans of the original films may be intrigued to see this, but there’s little of those prior films that would warrant a sequel so far after and the trailer doesn’t do that well selling it all.
(#2) We’ve finally gotten information about the plot and there’s still not enough to make the film look interesting. Fans of the original might be suckered into watching it, but I suspect they’ll reject this attempt at resurrecting nostalgia just like most other attempts in the last couple of years.
Oscar Prospects:
None.
