Vince Vaughn Goes On a Business Trip in First Trailer for 'Unfinished Business'


Good for Vince Vaughn that he'll get a chance to show what will presumably be a much darker side on HBO's True Detective next year, but he knows where his bread is buttered. That would be comedies just like Unfinished Business (formerly Business Trip), which put him back as the everyman in a film that looks like Planes, Traines, and Automobiles meets Old School.

Rejoining his Delivery Man director Ken Scott, with Dave Franco, Nick Frost, James Marsden, Sienna Miller, and Tom Wilkinson co-starring, Unfinished Business has Vaughn as a businessman who goes on a European trip to secure a major deal. Of course it goes sideways and soon he's going toe-to-toe with his old boss. This looks like standard course stuff for Vaughn, but the tone of this NSFW trailer shows there may be some dramatic edges. A few, but clearly not too many.

Unfinished Business opens March 6th 2015.

New Trailer for 'The Grand Seduction' Starring Taylor Kitsch and Brendan Gleeson


If you're one of our DC readers and you haven't been attending the DC International Film Festival, aka FilmFest DC, well then shame on you. The event opened last week with the Canadian comedy, The Grand Seduction, a remake of the 2003 film Seducing Doctor Lewis, which if you've seen it looks an awful lot like Doc Hollywood. With next month's release date rapidly approaching, a new trailer has been released to help drum up a little buzz.

Starring Taylor Kitsch and Brendan Gleeson, it centers on a hot shot doctor passing through a small coastal community full of quirky characters. To help fulfill a lucrative contract, the townsfolk and the mayor must pull out all of the stops to get him to fall in love with their town so he'll stick around. Don McKellar (The Red Violin) is directing this one, with a script by Michael Dowse (Take Me Home Tonight) and Ken Scott (Delivery Man), the latter having written the original.

This looks like a straight-up crowd pleaser and could be a smart comedic turn for Kitsch. The Grand Seduction opens May 30th.
