The full english version of Flags of our Fathers has been let loose on the net. And I’ve got to say that I’m…. underwhelmed.
Don’t get me wrong. A trailer is just a trailer. I’m very much looking forward to seeing this new Clint Eastwood film. I think the cast looks solid, and I usually love historical films. As a side note, I’m also looking forward to seeing how Ryan Phillippe can pull this type of role off in this type of film. The guy has turned in some good performances… but this may be his chance to show us something more.
Anyway, the trailer itself is slow, and honestly kinda emotionally cheesy. If I wasn’t already looking forward to Flags of our Fathers… this trailer certainly wouldn’t have motivated me to run out and grab myself some tickets. Just my 2 cents worth.
