Trailer: Traitor

May 15th, 2008
Written By: Jonathan B.

This is a trailer I’ve been looking forward to for a while now. Traitor caught my interest when I heard it would be starring three of my favorites: Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, and Jeff Daniels. I became even more intrigued when I read that the idea for the movie came from the mind of usual-comedian Steve Martin. By the looks of the trailer, it should be a solid thriller.

The trailer focuses pretty heavily on Cheadle’s character, but I’m holding out hope that Pearce shares equal screen time. It also emphasizes the action, like it’s another Bourne movie, but I have a feeling this isn’t going to be quite as action-packed as the trailer makes it seem. The movie hits cinemas on August 29, 2008, so we’ll find out then.

What do you think?

  1. Sort of looks like Syriana/Munich. Which isn’t a bad thing. The cast is badass. While you’re holding out for Pearce, here’s hoping Daniels gets a lot of screen time as well.

  2. Not quite sure. Doesn’t really impress me much but as Andrew said…that’s some kick-ass cast…

  3. Looked pretty solid. Did Steve Martin write this?

  4. @swarez - according to IMDb, it’s based on his initial idea!
