almostwittySo, at long last, the trailer for the Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan movie, “The Foreigner” (directed by the man who made Goldeneye and Casino Royale) has been unveiled.
As a YouTube commentator wagged, it’s like an Asian Taken!
From the trailer, it looks pretty cool with at least one classic Jackie Chan move remixed, but a couple of things strike me:
– The film is famous for having blown up a London bus on a Sunday afternoon in Lambeth Bridge, alarming a lot of people nearby who didn’t realise it was a film stunt. Given all the effort they went into filming that stunt, it’s surprising it’s not in the trailer. Instead, it’s a more generic urban bombing that appears in the trailer. Maybe they decided to drop that sequence?
– This is probably just me, but I’m just not ready to see Pierce Brosnan playing the bad admin guy.
What do you think?
