Q: Is this movie worth the price of admission?
A: Go! Both the good guys and the bad guys are so many steps ahead of each other, that you get to a point where you're not sure if the good guys are bad or the bad guys are good.
Q: Will this movie make me laugh?
A: There's not a lot of room for humor when you're trying to keep the tension high.
Q: Will this movie make me cry?
A: Not really, but things sure can get awkward when your mom is in prison. And sometimes, it's really hard not to take it out on her.
Q: Will this movie be up for any awards?
A: Paul Haggis, Russell Crowe, and a November 19th release date... probably.
Q: How is the Acting?
A: I love Elizabeth Banks, especially in comedies, but as hard as she tries in some of her difficult dramatic moments, you never forget that she's acting opposite Russell Crowe, and she's just not on his level.
Q: How is the Directing?
A: It starts out dull and boring, much like the lives of the protagonists, and it ratchets up as the suspense builds.
Q: How is the story/script?
A: Paul Haggis is an Academy Award winning screenwriter, and yet there's something about this French remake of Pour Elle that feels like it's simply a translation of the original screenplay. Though, to be clear, that's not an insult to the original film... Which, to be even more clear, I didn't see.
Q: Where can I see the trailer?
A: http://www.moviefone.com/movie/the-next-three-days/1441492/trailers
