If you’re the type wondering what director Shawn Levy (THE INTERNSHIP, REAL STEAL) has been up to, feel free to placate those fears as the trailer for his latest, THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU, is here! The story finds a family coming together for a funeral and attempting to reconnect. In these situations, an ensemble cast will make or break your movie, but we’re lucky to have the likes of Jason Bateman and Tina Fey headlining.
Twenty points if you can NOT think about Adam Driver being in STAR WARS EPISODE VII:
Despite having a similar plot to films like ELIZABETHTOWN and GARDEN STATE, I’m still willing to give this flick a shot. The cast is pretty great, although it’s director Shawn Levy‘s work that I’m iffy about. While I found DATE NIGHT to be an enjoyable affair, THE NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM doesn’t do anything for me. In this case, I think the R-rating is a selling point to separate this from his previous work.
THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU, starring Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Jane Fonda, Adam Driver, Rose Byrne, Timothy Olyphant, Abigail Spencer, Corey Stoll, and Dax Shepard, will be released on September 12, 2014.
