Looks interesting. I'm a major fan of Bronson and revenge flicks, so this could be one to watch for. Although something tells me they're going to focus more on emotion and less on Bronson-like asskickery.

Sheesh, you would think that movie characters would have learned how dangerous pedestrian tunnels are by now.
The name "Neil Jordan" does give me more confidence than I would have had from the trailer alone.

I agree with what Alex Billington said about the trailer on that site:
However this new trailer is one of the best trailers I've seen in a long time, even better than the Transformers one or We Own the Night - it's incredibly well put together and just builds up the intensity and explains just enough of the story to get you interested in seeing it. The editing is fantastic and the musical choices are amazing, too. The film itself looks incredible, and Jodie Foster with a short cut looks rather intriguing, too.

Loved the "I want my dog back," line. This has some promise, as we seldom see a movie with a woman vigilante anymore. I also predict that Foster's name attached alone will get this film a big opening from the older crowd of movie goers. They tend to watch anything she does.

That one does look good. Finally a movie Jodie does without having to rescue her kid!
Altho it is hard to take her seriously as a hetero woman with these "love story" themed movies - since it's know she's Gay!
