Uptight FBI special agent Sarah Ashburn is paired with testy Boston cop Shannon Mullins in order to take down a ruthless drug lord. The hitch: neither woman has ever had a partner -- or a friend for that matter.

But she also has a spotty history with the Box Office, 2009 was really good to her, the rest is mostly middling.
2011 - Extremely Loud and Incredibly Obnoxious - $31.8m domestic gross
2009 - The Blind Side - $255m
2009 - All About Steve - $33m
2009 - The Proposal - $163m
2007 - Premonition - $47m
2006 - Infamous - $1.2m
2006 - The Lake House - $52m
2005 - Crash - $54.5m
2005 - Miss Congeniality 2 - $48.4m
2004 - Two Weeks Notice - $93m
etc;
Now that I look at it, Hilary Swank makes a lot of unappealing shitty movies. So that's her own damn fault. They're both Producers, they need to try harder.

I do not think that Swank is in high demand so she takes what she can get, unlike Hollywood darlings Kate Hudson, Julia Roberts Sandra Bullock, etc........

Are Kate Hudson and Julia Roberts really in demand anymore? Honestly asking, I can't tell these days.
Edit: Julia Roberts is apparently a yes, she made $10m off Eat Pray Love

Saw a red band trailer for this in front of the new Die Hard flick. There's a surprising amount of F-bombs dropped throughout this flick!

While they were filming this in Boston Sandra Bullock came to a comedy show I host (one of the comics I had on the show is also in the movie) and was incredibly nice. I'm pretty much committed to eventually seeing just about any flick they shoot in Boston just for the novelty value, but I like Paul Fieg as well, so I'm in for this one.

Is this a sequel to Heat in the same way that The Wolverine is a sequel to Wolverine and 28 Days...Later is a sequel to 28 Days?

I got that trailer before Die Hard too, and it was surprisingly hilarious. I'm usually the hardest bastard in the world to make laugh, but the trailer succeeded multiple times. I'll check it out.

Thought the Red Band trailer was better than all of DH5 - I have a friend who works at Fox who saw this a few weeks ago and was raving about how awesome it was.

I think between this, Bridesmaids and Identity Thief,I'm just about tired of Melissa McCarthy's one trick pony show and would be very glad if I never saw her again.

This trailer (clean version) played before Safe Haven and the theater was actually buzzing at the end of it. My wife and I looked at each other and were like WTF is going on?
This wasn't the first time I've seen this trailer (thanks to my Movie Pass card) but this is the first time I saw a reaction like that. Theater was fairly crowded.

Yeah let me guess the audience laughed at:
"Girl you better run"
"The metal car broke his fall"
"What's gonna come POPPIN OUT"
breaking glass "AAAAAAAH"
