   Wow, how exactly do you review a film that hasn't been released? Ooooh, I know how...you make a lame attempt at bashing the trailer of all things. Really, try to at least pretend you have some credibility and wait until the movie comes out to turn your nose up.
   
   But, you were right about one thing...it is a remake. Not of Frequency however (which was a great film), but of a japanese film called Ilmare. Now you would have known that had you not been so hell bent on cookie cutting your review by bashing Bullock and Reeves. Don't taint your readers view on a film that hasn't been released yet.
   
   It speaks ill of their intelligence...not to mention highlighting your low IQ.

   Reading is Fundamental.
   
   Pre = prefix that means "before"
   
   So a "preview" would mean this is before the actual review.
   
   Thanks for playing though!

   Nicole,
   You are right that it is a remake of Il Mare. But it is not a Japanese movie. It's a Korean movie.
   
   "Frequency" was a ripoff of another Korean movie called "Ditto" about, you guessed it, communicating through ham radio with time difference.

   Yes, it's a remake. Not of a Japanese movie though. It's a Korean film. :-)

   haha, no, it's not nice that they remade it with Keenu and Sandra. Oh dear Lord help us all.......
   
   that trailer is atrocious.

   Just a note: As I understand it, movie reviewers (at least of the newspaper-reporter variety) get a copy of a film pre-release. True, this review appears to be based on the trailer alone. If Mr. Tyler was a film reviewer for the New York Times or somesuch, he'd have access to that.
   
   As it is, it's his opinion based on the same stuff we unworthies can see. Credit him with that, and move on.
   
   (P.S.: You might look at the little caveat at the bottom of the page here (in italics), especially the last sentence.)

   first of all, he didn't bash the trailer, he said it wasn't bad.
   second, he'll review the movie when it actually comes out...like he always does..for now, we'll just have to stick with the PREview.

   it kinda sounds like he already has it in for the movie. som his review will most likely be biased.

   Personally, i cant say anything like,"the Movie will suck" or like "this movie will be the best ever!!!!" because it hasnt come out yet. I personally love sandra bullock, i think she is a great actress!!!! I hope it gets high marks!!

1. Josh Says:

   And when the movie comes out and you've seen it, you still can't say "the Movie will suck" because that would be the wrong tense to use after having seen the film. It just wouldn't make sense.
   
   So, I guess if you're going to say "the movie will suck", you'd better get it out of your system now while it's still grammatically correct.

   it's a remake of a Korean movie, smart ass

1. Marcio Says:

   Well, i cannot say "the movie will suck" because for what i saw on the trailer, IS ALMOST EXACTLY from the korean version called "Il mare". If you really want to have fun watching this, go get the original. If you like american actors and actresses, still watch the original and imagine these two goofs (being sandra bullock and keanu reeves) in it...but i say the korean actors are far better.
