And the cycle of theatrical release date shuffling continues… with the Russell Crowe thriller, UNHINGED, detaching itself from its July 10th slot and dropping down to July 31st. The film joins Christopher Nolan's TENET, Disney's MULAN, and BILL & TED FACE THE MUSIC on the island of misfit movie release dates. This is getting crazy. It feels like we are reporting the same thing every two weeks regarding when our beloved Summer tentpole movies are coming out. Don't be surprised if two weeks from now, we're reporting the same thing again!
UNHINGED is a timely psychological thriller that explores the fragile balance of a society pushed to the edge, taking something we've all experienced- road rage – to an unpredictable and terrifying conclusion. Rachel (Caren Pistorius) is running late to work when she has an altercation at a traffic light with a stranger (Crowe) whose life has left him feeling powerless and invisible. Soon, Rachel finds herself and everyone she loves the target of a man who decides to make one last mark upon the world by teaching her a series of deadly lessons. What follows is a dangerous game of cat and mouse that proves you never know just how close you are to someone who is about to become unhinged.
So, it's basically JOY RIDE meets SAW. I can dig that! Crowe rarely disappoints and it'll be cool seeing him take a turn as the bad guy. So when the flick hits theaters in five years, I'll be there! Just kidding about the years… I hope!
