Release Date:

December 19, 2014

Synopsis:

From IMDb: “Larry leaves New York City for London on a quest to save the magic before it is gone forever.”

Poster: B / A- / B+ / C+ (9) / B / B- (7) / B

Review: (#1 & #2) The design is very familiar, but has a colorful vibe that seems promising. The second design, like an M.C. Escher painting is one of the most creative ways yet devised to showcase all of the film’s stars while creating a most stunning visual affair.

(#3) The entire cast is here, which combined the background make it feel more epic in scope than it really is. (#4-#12) This initial set of character posters have nice varying backgrounds, but won’t get the viewer very excited. (#13) Like poster #3, this design gives a somewhat epic feel, but lacks the breadth of the prior example.

(#14-#20) This series of character designs are a little more interesting and the puns add a more humorous flavor than the prior designs. (#21) This one is similar to Poster #13 in that it has the same general feel of #3 but doesn’t have nearly the level of detail and the number of characters.

Trailer: D / F

Review: (#1) If you’ve seen the original, then perhaps some of this might be funny. However, it’s just as likely that it will look redundant and stale. Considering the second film in the franchise was a disappointment compared to the the original, they may be hoping for a global market to offset the obvious costs to this unnecessary sequel.

(#2) Labelled as a trailer, this is more of a clip reel narrated by the director and lacking any real semblance of excitement or fascination. Much of his description makes the film sound like a it’s some grand feature destined for legendary status, even though we all know that isn’t close to true.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
