Must Watch: Anne Hathaway's Passengers Trailer
August 30, 2008
Source: Reelz Channel
by Alex Billington
I bet you didn't know Anne Hathaway was in a horror movie called Passengers? This horror flick is about a grief counselor assigned to work with a group of plane crash survivors who starts to uncover a horrific mystery when the survivors start to disappear. If I had to find a horror film to be very interested in, this is definitely it. The trailer hooked me in - it's like a viral marketing campaign with a mysterious conclusion that I'm dying to figure out. I don't want to know what it is before I see it (so please don't say), but I think this definitely looks good. It may not be the next great horror classic and it may not turn out to be a huge box office hit, but at least it looks unique and interesting and isn't a remake or an adaptation.
Thanks to our friends at Reelz Channel for debuting this trailer. I've got to admit that it really came out of nowhere. I had heard the title, but I didn't know Anne Hathaway was in a horror flick. Thoughts?
Watch the first trailer for Passengers:
Passengers is directed by Colombian filmmaker Rodrigo García, of Nine Lives and "In Treatment" previously. The script was written by Ronnie Christensen, of a few various made-for-TV films previously. Sony is releasing Passengers in limited theaters starting on October 24th this fall. The poster is featured below.

The narration makes it feel like a lame movie, but I have too much faith in Patrick Wilson. I really want to see this, just for him. And that guy from The Mist!

did ANOTHER trailer give away too much of a plot?

isn't a remake or an adaptation??? Look at this:
LOST + HEROES= PASSENGERS

god, baltazar, exactly what I tought. Like EXACTLY.
The narration does make it seem crappy. And I would'nt call that horror, its definitly a sci-fi suspense flick. And that f—ing trailer just gave away half the movie, I'm sure.

they should've just called it final destination: the lost tapes. who gives a damn about some horror movie getting a limited release on the same day as saw?

Who are you to criticize anybody? No one is forcing you to read his reviews. If you don't like this site don't come here. Let's see you make something better. Otherwise, shut the hell up.

yeah, seems like a ghost movie or something. boring.

I think the story goes a little something like this:
MAN: A plane crashed, we need a hot and young psychiatrist to check out the survivors.
ANNE: *flips hair around* Oh okay.
PATRICK: I'm a handsome man who's conflicted. Sleep with me.
ANNE: *Maybeline-esque pose* Okay.

I don't think Anne Hatheway being beautiful can save this one.
The acting looks very uninspired and forced. I also, have this feeling it will end just like "The Forgotten"

On the trailer: the narrators voice and what he is saying is so corny I had to switch of the sound.
On the film: good actors bound by a stupid plot. Just as it always is in todays american "horror" flicks.
On Anne Hethaway: cant take anything seriously with her as a lead unless it is not a chick flick.
On the film poster: I can almost point out every single photoshop work they did on her face.

#26: agree, the narrators voice was very corny. agree with your second point Thrid point agree with, and finally your fourth point i very much agree with. 
Yea, that poster is very ugly and that itself will turn others down from watching it. Plus i've grown our of Anne Hatheways beauty…shes just an "ok" actress… and omg the trailer was just displeasing to watch.

This will only be more hokey if they use the Iggy Pop song of the same name for the opening credits. It looks like M. Night Shyamalan wiped his ass and this was the smear left on the toilet paper…
El Conquistador on Aug 31, 2008

Really, the poster doesn't even LOOK like Anne. Also, why are they putting this in LIMITED RELEASE? By the looks of this it doesn't seem like an Oscar flick or they are just burying this flop.

I agree with #2 and #3. And I didn't watch the trailer because I had a sneaking suspicion that what #5 said would happen here.
And the I.R.S. had the nerve to say I wasn't good at math. FOOLS!
