That looked cool. I like movies that have that grimey, gritty LA shooting style. It reminds me of Training Day and Harsh Times which isn`t surprising seeing as its Ayer`s project. Common plays a good bad guy too.

I gotta say...looks really good. I agree with Pony about the gritty feel. Anyone who has been to L.A. knows there are parts that feel, well scary. Then again, Camden NJ has been high on the list of crappy cities for years.....GO CAMDEN...lol....It seems like the cast for this is pretty good....I may make a trip to the theatre for this.

It's too bad Hayden Christensen wasn't in the movie too , cause then we'd have two of the greatest actors of our time in it.Hayden and Keanu Reeves ...LMAO.

Wow. Hell of a cast. I'll have to watch the trailer at home, but sounds interesting...

The ACTUAL film aside, the title sucks. Sounds like one of those high school dance flicks, like that mess Julia Stiles was in.

I'm with the rest of you guys. But that aside, why is this news worthy of this site? I've seen several updates on this movie and thought that there was a fantasy/sci-fi angle there somewhere. Nope. Just curious.

Capt...It's news worthy because some of those actors have been in some of the most popular sci-fi movies this last decade or more and because weather you like it or not we here also like more genera's than just Sci-Fi and Fantasy...I come here for news of all kinds within reason, it's obvious I don't come here for love story type movies and such, so yes this is news worthy to me because of some of the actors that are in it... The trailer looks good...

I don't get why this would not be newsworthy just because it does not have a sci-fi or fantasy angle. I've been following this site since it was Coming Attractions by Corona before it was absorbed by Cinescape.com and before then finally absorbed by Mania.com. Coming Attractions did not discriminate or give preferential treatment to just sci-fi/fantasy films and thats the way I preferred it. Stop being nerds and expand your horizons. Get out of your mom's basements and get some sun. I'm not trolling and I know you were just curious but I just don't want the Mania editors to read the comment of it not being newsworthy because it has nothing to do with sci-fi/fantasy and then think that the ONLY movies we all want to hear about are those types and thus tailor the site to only those types of movies.
