Takers Movie Trailer (Like Heat With Paul Walker, Chris Brown, And T.I.)
This is what happens when the Ed Hardies of the world demand a contemporary, made-for-BET version ofHeatthat stars lawless idiots likeChris Brown,T.I., and…Hayden Christensenthugged out in a $300 fedoraandbowtie. Elegantly entitled to the chagrin ofBryan Mills,Takers, the film opens early next year. To add further insult to injury (and Michael Scott’s DVD collection),The Wire’sIdris Elbaappears to be playing the De Niro mastermind in this $20 million bank robber thriller, hence no room on the poster for co-starMatt Dillon,taking on Pacino detective duties. Take the time to see the brilliance for yourself below and thenSpinja-it-out with Chris Brown defenders in the comments…
Bulletproof Plot Synopsis:Takerscenters on a notorious group of criminals who continue to baffle police by pulling off perfectly executed bank robberies. They are in and out like clockwork, leaving no evidence behind and laying low in between heists. But when they attempt to pull off one last job with more money at stake than ever before, the crew may find their plans interrupted by a hardened detective (Matt Dillon) who is hell-bent on solving the case.
“We’re in trouble here. The street blew up!” It’s pretty telling when the most anticipatory thing about a trailer is the possibility that Paul Scheer, Rob Huebel, and Aziz Ansari will declare their mutual anticipation on Tumblr.Takersis directed byJohn Luessenhop, who made his debut, and gained his sole director’s credit, withLockdownstarringMaster Pand a character named Alize, presumably in homage to the red passionliquor of the streetz. Judging by the flashy stylistic sheen and love of real-talk dialogue, the guy probably watches Hype Williams’sBellyas he’s directing. Luessenhop also co-wrote the script with three other guys, all of whom are said to light cigars with dead presidents and are next in line for an acid Jacuzzi scare.
