Trailer Bulletin: Harsh Times
by Scott Weinberg | July 05, 2006
Discuss Article
I saw "Harsh Times" almost a year ago, and I remember thinking "Wow, Christian Bale is a force of freakin' nature in this flick." I also expected that the actor's fans would have a field day with this movie -- which I'm sure they will, if the thing ever gets a release date. Until then, we do have a trailer link.

MGM / Bauer Martinez are the ones who own the movie, so you could probably direct your questions to them. But be sure to visit YouTube.com and check out the first international trailer for the rather intense crime flick.

"Harsh Times" represents the directorial debut of screenwriter David Ayer, whom you might remember from titles like "Dark Blue," "Training Day," "S.W.A.T.," "U-571," and "The Fast and the Furious." The flick's about a blisteringly aggressive former Army Ranger who finds himself struggling to get used to "normal life" again. Freddy Rodriguez, also excellent, plays Bale's best pal -- and a guy who really should have better taste in friends.

I'm not usually a fan of crime thrillers, but this intrigued me a lot. Bale's range in this trailer alone is enough to get me hyped up for this. Now THAT'S how you make a trailer.
