Trailer Bulletin: The Insane "Smokin' Aces"
by Scott Weinberg | August 18, 2006
Discuss Article
Last week I was all set to share the all-new and seriously energetic trailer for Joe Carnahan's "Smokin' Aces," but the official site went bye-bye before I could spread the word. Fortunately the guys over at FirstShowing.net know where it can be found...

Click here for the scoop from the FS.net gang.

Synopsis: "An FBI agent (Ryan Reynolds) hunts for a Las Vegas stand up comedian (Jeremy Piven) who has decided to squeal on the mob but, before he heads off for protective custody, decides to go to the casinos at Lake Tahoe for one last good time, drawing a crowd of assassins (including Ben Affleck and Alicia Keys)."

Carnahan's previous films include "Blood, Guts, Bullets and Octane" and "Narc."

Also on board are for "Smokin' Aces" are Ray Liotta, Andy Garcia, Peter Berg, and Jason Bateman. Too bad the flick's not due till February.

This looks like it could be awesome...the director is a stud. If anyone can redeem Affleck, maybe this guy can.

I think the Affleck flick Hollywoodland looks pretty sweet, so hopefully he can redeem himself for you guys with it next month.

where the flying shit did this movie come from??!!


I might be the only one who's amped to see how well Common can act, but having Liotta, Garcia, and Piven should get a lot of other people excited. Plus Narc was reallly well directed. This might be the best fall movie season I've ever witnessed

I thought the above commenters were once again getting a bit too excited about something that really wasn't all that great.

Turned out I was very, very wrong this time....holy shit I was wrong.

That is all.

I heard Ben Affleck's performance was out of place. But I heard Oscar nominations for Ryan Reynolds and Jeremy Piven. You can find out here:
