Review: (#1) A simplistic design with the single interesting element being the dark figure within the title, which isn’t that interesting. (#2) The silhouette from the first design is back and bigger than ever, which is not a benefit. (#3) One of the more interesting scenes from the trailer, this fascinating water sculpture adds mystery, but feels entirely out of place in this context.
(#4) A milquetoast, two-panel poster design. No. Just no. (#5) There are some stylistic elements that work modestly well here, but overall the poster doesn’t seem to have a grasp on its audience’s attention.
Trailer Rating: C

Review: Has the well of stories of the post-Holocaust revenge plotting finally run dry? This trailer suggests that the writer and director are grasping at straws even if they are employing two fine actors.
Oscar Prospects:
None.
Trailer #1
