What you may need to know:
1. John Cusack and Adrien Brody swap their remaining dignity for cash in peplum gubbins set in 48 BC.
2. Not a comedy, just so you know.
3. Nicolas Cage and Bruce Willis must have passed.
4. Cusack’s career is so off track that only a part in True Detective 3 could save him now.
5. This has been out in China since February. As crazy as it sounds, it’s already recouped twice its budget. China is so hot right now.
6. Broadsheet Prognosis: Made in Taiwan.
Release Date: September 4 (USA)

The first 2 points were exactly what I was looking for.
Jesus Christ, John.
He looks like a role-playing Microsoft outside sales manager.
Jesus, the edit at 0:54…
This is so terrible. So, so terrible.
This looks brilliant!
The casting is a bit nuts.
Nic Cage already cashed in on a Chinese movie with ‘Outcast’ …not hislwest, but not too far from it. Poor aul young Luke Skywalker’s in it too… Hayden fella…

hislwest? …his worst !
John Cusacks appeal has always been lost on me to be honest. No, High Fidelity is NOT one of the best movies ever made, please never talk to me again
Well he used to be incredibly attractive, so there was that.
It isn’t, but Grosse Point Blank is.
agreed. and stellar soundtrack that cusack had a hand in selecting
Christ on a bike
….the Lance Armstrong Story.

Heh :)
I hate when film critics or so called fans moan when an actor or musician does something what they feel isn’t up to par. They have bills to pay just like the rest of us so they take work as they can and when they can. And don’t let this shock you but they do all their roles for cash!
