I love the concept of Trailer: The Movie...it's redundant in such a clever way. At first you think "God, this is overboard" but soon you realize that A LOT of movies are like that. The mix and amount of cliches stuffed into this short is amazing and hilarious! I chuckled all the way through at the sad reality and yet how comical it really is. On a technical note, the skill behind this film is obvious. Camera work, some delicate special effects, acting (considering the concept!)...all extremely well done. Overall, high quality and entertaining. Watch out for the lady that keeps getting smacked back - that's just the best.

The movie for people who hate trailers... or love them.

Trailer: the Movie! is a truly, truly funny film. It hits just about every movie trailer cliche from the 'trailer voice' to the obligatory Motown song. Anyone who's sick of trailers giving away all the best parts (and endings) of movies will love this movie. But with so many action movie and trailer shots so professionally recreated, people who love trailers will probably love Trailer: the Movie!, too.
