From IMDb: “Down on his luck and facing financial hardship, Gerry teams up with younger charismatic poker player, Curtis, in an attempt to change his luck. The two set off on a road trip through the South with visions of winning back what’s been lost.”
Poster Rating: C+
Review: It looks like a standard-issue poster design for a big budget Hollywood comedy starring Ryan Reynolds, not the independent dramedy starring Ryan Reynolds that it is.
Trailer Rating: C+
Review: There’s a brief moment in the trailer where the audience can reasonably believe that Ryan Reynolds’ character is merely Ben Mendelsohn’s addictive subconscious manifest. However, the rest of the trailer goes to great lengths to make the film seem like a gambling buddy road trip picture, which is far less interesting an idea.
Oscar Prospects:
None.
Trailer #1
