Trailers: Fracture

I can't really tell if this is a smart film being masqueraded as a thriller cliché for the purpose of appealing to a mainstream audience or if it truly is a thriller cliché made more appealing by the quality of its cast. All I know is that if Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling get to face off in a court room, I'm totally in. Hopkins is a pro at playing eerie killers and Gosling (hot off his Half Nelson Oscar nod) could not be more perfect for playing a young idealistic lawyer. Sadly, the trailer doesn't really give us too much in the way of dramatic content (mostly just violence and too many spoiled plot twists as per usual). I'm hoping that despite the bad title and the cheesy trailer (Seriously, does the "Fracture" title card need to actually fracture? Must we be that literal?), this could be a surprise treat with interesting performances. The official release date is 4/27/07.
