Intense "Eastern Promises" Trailer

From worstpreviews, Here is the violent trailer for the upcoming David Cronenberg film "Eastern Promises." The story is of a mysterious and ruthless man (Viggo Mortensen), who is tied to one of London's most notorious organized crime families. His carefully maintained existence is jarred when he crosses paths with an innocent midwife (Naomi Watts) trying to right a wrong.

The trailer starts out with Watts getting her hands on a girl's diary. In an attempt to return it, she comes across the Russian mafia. You have to love Mortensen's Russian accent; it's dead on."Eastern Promises" re-unites Mortensen with Cronenberg after the 2005 "A History of Violence." Joining the cast is also the amazing French actor Vincent Cassel, who you might know from "Derailed" and "Ocean's Twelve." "Eastern Promises" hits theaters on September 14th, in limited release.

Movie looks good despite the trailer, which has way too many wickedfast bang-cuts for my taste.

(By "bang-cut" I mean a jump cut accompanied by one of those serious whooshBOOM noises.)

Viggo totally works as a Russian gangster. They probably hired him after they saw him whack all those Orcs.

I hope to live my life without even the teeniest of contacts with the Russian mafia, thank you very much. I'd be all "oh yeah, there's a diary. You want it? There ya go. See ya!"
