Typical Weinstein Company bullshit here, unfortunately. Their "pick up unique, quality films and hold them indefinitely only to drop them into theaters with little press, ultimately leading to early money-making death" tactics usually apply to great international horror flicks, so this one's a bit of a change, at least.
Killshot, a film that was made two years ago and held captive in their web of cinematic purgatory. Its being plopped into theaters on January 23 (yes, less than two weeks), it seems, and the first trailer is making its debut today, January 12. Talk about buzzer-beating.
I wouldn't even care, truthfully, if it wasn't for the cast at work here: the great Mickey Rourke (whose current rebirth buzz is clearly the reason why Killshot is even seeing this current dumping-ground release); the young and infinitely promising Joseph Gordon-Levitt; Diane Lane, a beautiful cougar if I've ever seen one; and Thomas Jane, a good actor who'll forever be in my cool-side thanks to leading The Mist, aka 2007's Best Movie That Audiences Overlooked Like Close-Minded Douchebags; and Rosario Dawson, the sexiest fangirl around. A top-shelf assemblance of performers here.
Give this trailer a look. I think it'll be a good-to-go sleeper. We shall see (for disclosure's sake, I've yet to see this):
