Trailer: A Monster Calls

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAheNjylHjM&feature=youtu.be

A visually spectacular drama from acclaimed director Juan Antonio Bayona (“The Impossible”), based on the award-winning fantasy novel. 12-year-old Conor (Lewis MacDougall) attempts to deal with his mother’s (Felicity Jones) illness and the bullying of his classmates by escaping into a fantastical world of monsters and fairy tales that explore courage, loss, and faith. Also featuring Liam Neeson who will star in performance-capture and voiceover as the nocturnally visiting monster of the title, and Sigourney Weaver as the maternal grandmother.

I hadn’t realized I was going through Liam Neeson withdrawal until this trailer. It’s only a voice over but man alive is he intimidating. This trailer seems wondrous however it hasn’t gotten my interest. Maybe it reminds me too much of the spectacular looking Spielberg flick nearing release. Maybe it’s because I want a Liam Neeson movie. Maybe it’s just not a great trailer but something certainly failed here.
