Underwhelming views for the Horrible Bosses 2 trailer, in which a man says he has to go do #2 and Ani says to do it on her (not making this up! this is what passes for comedy in Ani movies!).
Also, Ani's next movie Life of Crime played in festivals but no distributor wanted it for theatrical release...it will premiere on TV on VOD!
Conversely, Begin Again, which was also independently produced and shown at festivals, was picked up for theatrical distribution! Read the Rolling Stone review:
Quote:
No disease. No teens dying. And yet Begin Again hits the summer sweet spot by breezing in on waves of humor, heartache and ravishing romance. And irresistible music you can't get out of your head.
Knightley, whose small voice is surprisingly soulful, is at her best.
It's rare to find a movie that uses music to define love without sentimentalizing it. But Begin Again, with songs by Glen Hansard and New Radicals frontman Gregg Alexander, is a wonderfully appealing exception. Ruffalo and Knightley perform subtle magic. On a bench, ear buds in and lost in the music, they forge an intimacy you can't pin down. Begin Again is a wisp of a movie. But it can wipe you out.
