Trailer Review - The Lone Ranger




The Lone Ranger
1st Trailer
Watch It Here


Person of Interest: Johnny Depp is Tonto and Helena Bonham Carter is a possible femme fatale. Oh, and Armie Hammer is the titled character, I guess.

Scene Pop: The boardroom massacre.

Briggs Breakdown: Tons of gunfire, a 3D effected silver bullet, a train heist, a 3D effected train, a train sandwich, and many shots of a train and train tracks.

Effective?: Meh. Either looks like Wild, Wild West and/or a complete spoiler of the film's climax.

Check it Out?: Probably not, maybe as the bottom of a drive-in bill. Frankly, as time and business has shown us, movie westerns are not profitable anymore. Coupled this with the fact that this beleaguered and troubled production is drawing comparisons to Disney's last fiasco John Carter, not to mention a minor but growing fatigue with America's love of Johnny Depp, it will be a hard train ride for this film.
