"However, sometimes the trailer is much better than the movie."
Sadly, this is so true. I hate when that happens. Against All Odds was one of the worst offenders.what a great, stylish, interesting trailer. Unfortunately, it was better than the movie.

Trailers should be avoided as much as possible. However, sometimes the trailer is much better than the movie.
