Trespass Against Us Trailer (2016)

Trailer for Trespass Against Us.

Three generations of the Cutler family live as notorious outlaws among some of the wealthiest lands in Britain. They spend their time hunting, raiding large estates and tormenting the police. In the midst of it all, Chad (Michael Fassbender) finds himself torn between respect for his father (Brendan Gleeson) and a desire for a better life for his children. The law is cracking down on his clan, and the decision might not be his to make...

Trespass Against Us marks Adam Smith’s debut as a feature film director. Here is a little background info on the Director. Adam Smith is an award winning film, television drama, documentary and music video director. His filmmaking journey began as a teenager, making visuals for raves and nightclubs in a creative collective, which he co-founded, called Vegetable Vision. He has since gone on to work extensively with electro music duo The Chemical Brothers and Mike Skinner of hip-hop garage project The Streets. TV credits include Brit teen comedy drama ‘Skins’, BBC mini-series ‘Little Dorrit’, Matt Smith’s opening episode of 'Doctor Who’ in 2010 and documentaries ‘Wot Do U Call It?’, ‘A.I.P.S’ and 'Ghetto on Sea'.

Music for the film is an original score from The Chemical Brothers.

I am not sure what to think about this one. I am immediately drawn in with the two lead characters being Michael Fassbender and Brendan Gleeson, but the trailer felt way too flat for me. The story line seems a bit janky a too forced.

You have a son fighting against his Father while trying to keep his family together, yet he continues to commits crime with the very Father he is trying to separate from. Maybe I am in the minority here, but I get the feeling that film will have a slow pace with not much of a climax. I will be skipping this film based on what I have now seen so far and some bad reviews that came out of TIFF.
