Release Date: TBA, 2012
Thoughts: For me, the jury is still out on Simon Pegg. I’ve enjoyed him when he takes on a sidekick role (Star Trek, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol) but have been less impressed when he is front and center. This looks to be a surreal and silly movie…more like a Being John Malkovich and Terry Gilliam sort of vibe to it. Universal Studios seems to be pretty gung-ho about Pegg and this movie so we shall see how they choose to market and release this.
