Talk about a long wait.
Today sees the release of the first trailer for Paul Greengrass' next film, "Green Zone", and I must say, it's about damn time. The film stars Matt Damon, and was bumped out of 2009 earlier this year, and pushed to a March 12, 2010 release date. Along with the bump, early response at special test screenings has been underwhelming.
However, it IS still Greengrass and Matt Damon, and while I try to avoid Iraq War thrillers, recently with The Hurt Locker and The Messengers, I have come to grow fond of these as the quality as exponentially grown. Being one of my most anticipated films of '09, this is definitely one of my top 10 most anticipated for '10, and this trailer only aids that. It features Greengrass' patented shaky cam, and while it sickens many, I'm one of his fans, and really, this style of film making is done best by Greengrass. Not many people get the benefit of the doubt like Mr. Greengrass. So, while I don't think the trailer is brilliant, it does at least show a bit of the film, which up to this point, we have seen nothing from. What do YOU think?
On March 12, 2010, Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass ("The Bourne Supremacy," "The Bourne Ultimatum," "United 93") re-team for the electrifying thriller Green Zone. In the film, Damon stars as Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller, a rogue U.S. Army officer who must hunt through covert and faulty intelligence hidden on foreign soil before war escalates in an unstable region.
Go see something good!
