[imdb the brothers bloom]The Brothers Bloom trailer does not dilly-dally around the point.  It hurtles the audience into the plot just as the actual film would.  It shows that the trailer author knows exactly what audience the film wants to attract, and how to attract them.  The way the characters are presented mimic the “Heist” film style.  The sequence of events have the action and questions constantly escalating to the point where the audience is on the edge of its seats waiting to know what comes next.

The writer/director, Rian Johnson, has only two other credits to his name, one of which is a dark, brilliant film called Brick, which completely emobodies the film-noir style.  Although The Brothers Bloom has a strikingly different tone, it seems as though Johnson does have a grasp on how to revamp a tired genre.

I do hope this trailer is a good sampling of the humor.  The preview has excellent comedic rhythm that gives me butterflies when I watch it.  It doesn’t help that I’m madly in love with Rachel Weisz, who looks absolutely huggable!  I succumbed to a thrill of excited giggles after I saw this trailer, and I do hope that the film will be just as awesome.
