A thriller about a pair of CIA agents on the trail of certain Weapons of Mass Destruction and a foreign correspondent following their mission. Inspired by Imperial Life in the Emerald City.
This new cut of the Green Zone trailer is way better than the US trailer. I wonder why they didn’t release this version of the trailer from the start… But now, it kind of reminds of Body of Lies with Leonardo DiCaprio..

Drama is set in 1954, U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) is investigating the disappearance of a murderess who escaped from a hospital for the criminally insane and is presumed to be hiding on the remote Shutter Island.
This Shutter Island movie looks damned fantastic and I’m not surprised: with Leonardo DiCaprio in the cast it couldn’t be otherwise!

Elsa and Clive (Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley), two young rebellious scientists, defy legal and ethical boundaries and forge ahead with a perilous experiment: splicing together human and animal DNA to make a new organism. Named Dren, the creature rapidly develops from a deformed female infant into a gorgeous but perilous winged human-chimera, who forges a bond with both of her creators – only to have that bond turn deadly.
Hard to believe that this small monstrous thing could develop in anything gorgeous later on. But I can really imagine it becoming some perilous predator. I am no Luddite, and I do want scientists to be allowed to pursue R&D in genetic engineering (from stem cells to splicing or whatever may help to increase our knowledge). But on can’t deny that there is need for regulation: don’t want perilous chimera to feed on you or don’t want any new vicious GM virus to infect you, do you? It’s even more compelling to implement a strong regulation and to get ethical awareness in the population because tabletop genetic engineering is for tomorrow

Edge of Darkness centers on a veteran cop (Mel Gibson) whose only grown-up child (Bojana Novakovic) is murdered on the steps of his home. The cop unearths his daughter’s secret life and discovers a world of corporate cover-ups and government collusion. Huston takes on the role of a shady businessman while Roberts will play the role of the daughter’s distraught boyfriend.
Less action than in Taken or in Law Abiding Citizen, but they place more emphasis on the plot in Edge of Darkness. I’d say that Edge of Darkness looks like a solid thriller even if it’s not an exceptional movie.
