Man, this one's been a long time coming... I recall getting excited when I first read about Kyle Killen's script, which topped the Black List's Top 10 Unproduced Scripts in Hollywood in 2008, but I think my initial enthusiasm has dampened somewhat to a meh? since Mel's career-killing raging psycho tirades earlier this year, and from watching this trailer. I think I was hoping for something more twisted and darker, but the trailer seems to sell the film as generic family-friendly/redemption fare - although something about the whole project does smell of "unintentionally funny misfire", with the added bonus of the Mel-scandal trainwreck factor.
