Transformers: Age of Extinction movie trailer

September 4, 2014 by Yein Jee

Official teaser trailer for American scifi action movie Transformers: Age of Extinction. It’s the fourth instalment of the live-action Transformers film series. In cinema this summer.

Age of Extinction is directed by Michael Bay, who’s also in charged of all the predecessors. This sequel features an all new human cast though, which includes Mark Wahlberg, Stanley Tucci, Kelsey Grammer, Nicola Peltz, Jack Reynor, Sophia Myles, Li Bingbing, Titus Welliver and T.J. Miller.

Not sure about the plot but this doesn’t look like the Transformers universe I’m familiar with from my younger days. I understand a film franchise has to continue evolving but it’s not always a good thing to change too much. Going to watch this regardless, hope it’s worth a trip to the cinema.

Contraband movie trailer

October 30, 2011 by Yein Jee

Trailer for American crime action movie Contraband, starring Mark Wahlberg, Kate Beckinsale, Ben Foster, Giovanni Ribisi, Caleb Landry Jones, and J.K. Simmons. In cinemas January 2012.

Contraband is a remake of a 2008 Icelandic film Reykjavík-Rotterdam starring Baltasar Kormákur. The actor took the role of the director instead for the Hollywood production.

The world of smuggling

Official intro… “Set in New Orleans, the film explores the cutthroat underground world of international smuggling – full of desperate criminals and corrupt officials, high-stakes and big payoffs – where loyalty rarely exists and death is one wrong turn away.”

In short, Wahlberg stars as an ex-smuggler who lives a peaceful life with his wife and kids, but has to go back into the business one more time to save his family. Despite branded as a “remake” the plot seems quite different from the original hit. The trailer seems decent though.
