From everything I’ve heard about the movie, I’ve been expecting at best a slightly elevated TV movie. But who knows? Could be a fine little film.

One problem, though, and it’s a problem I have with nearly all contemporary movies. Computer color-correction is annoying, and makes everything look unreal (in a bad sense) and, what’s worse, the same.

The production value in the trailer looks pretty good.

It does look especially pronounced in the trailer. My guess is that it's a bi-product of the heavy green screen use. You can tell that the lack of budget, didn't allow for many sets to be built, so they compensate with computer generated backgrounds and buildings and whatnot.

The trailer actually looks a little better than I personally anticipated. I've heard from several people who saw the some extended cuts at CPAC yesterday that it was a bit of a mess, at least from the clips that were shown.

Elevated MOW at best, is right. Trailer looks horrible... No Stars... This will pass quickly. Unfortunately...

Another problem: no A-list actors. In fact, some of the actprs have that “soft-core porn” look to them.
