It's not just a Robbery. It's Payback. Universal has debuted a second new trailer via Apple for the ensemble comedy Tower Heist, directed by everyone's favorite filmmaker, Brett Ratner. At least it has a good cast: Ben Stiller, Matthew Broderick and next year's Oscar host Eddie Murphy leading the way, with Téa Leoni, Casey Affleck, Michael Peña, Alan Alda and even Gabourey Sidibe. This trailer follows up the original trailer debut, though this time they show a lot more in a shorter package, including revealing a few key plot elements. It actually doesn't look bad until Eddie Murphy shows up, but maybe that's just me.
